Halo without online play. Sounds... very satisfying.

Actually... only the modders who didn't burn the discs correctly got banned from XBOX Live. This leaves the smart ones who know applies patches to the game image. Unfortunately, the smart ones who have the skill to do this are (and aren't banned) are the one who hack the game content and ruin online experience :(. It's mostly the n00b modders that got banned, but far from everyone.

Just recently a hack for Guitar Hero II came out where you can put your own custom tracks and play it on the xbox360. it sounds sweet and all but...that'll probably mean you can make a song with 1000, single 3 note chords and perfect a song and get an impossible highscore, and submit it into xbox live ranking. f'in cheaters.

Online play should work actually, its probably a copy that was bought from Argos and then leaked.

If it makes you feel better, Justin, I can't imagine many places would accept their "$60 bills."

Pirates aren't THAT clever.

I'm sure there are always ways to cheat the system and get something for nothing. If you can live with that and feel good about yourself, then good for you. I can tell you that anyone who does get caught stealing\cheating, what ever you want to call it, deserves everything they get. I find it ironic that there are people who whine about things like paying for downloadable content while there are people who flat out pirate\steal etc. and think thats ok. I personally don't mind paying for something I want and supporting other people's hard work, but then again I'm not a teenager trying to be all emo-non-conformist either. So flame me if you want, but you dumbasses know right from wrong. The fact is that if you choose to do things like that then you just suck in general. Do us all a favor and don't breed.

FU Pirates!

I did find it interesting that the game is 6.14GB I love having $200+ still to not have HD-DVD or
Blu-Ray drive that I don't need/want. Proof again that quality compression beats "extra" storage any day.

Microsoft isn't banning anybody for playing Halo 3 early. And its plenty easy to get a Legit copy of Halo 3 now, you just got to go to a store that broke the street date. Its still a legit copy, since it was pressed in microsofts factory and sold to you at retail cost by a licensed distributor.

You could really say the same thing for almost every software title of value. I can find loads of PC, 360, PS2, xbox, and wii games on torrent sites. All playable on modded consoles. PS3 titles are surprisingly scarce but I attribute that to the high cost of buying a BR burner and a higher cost of BD-R disks. I'm not saying the piracy of PS3 games won't be done, it is just not cost effective right now.

PS3 hacking will be done like PSP hacking. It'll run of the memory stick/harddrive using some sort of ISO loader, not a BD-R. It has been hacked but nothing has been publicly because it's only good for piracy atm and not for homebrew.

I agree with you somewhat, but have you ever tried to DL anything that is 8-20GB? It could take a week or more.

My friend called me up late last night to tell me he has downloaded it, and that it was awesome. He will still buy a legit copy when he can to play online with me and our circle of friends, so it's all good.

No it's not cool. Your friend is a pirate thief brigand, and he should be prosecuted to the highest extent of the law.

Except that "software piracy" is under the jurisdiction of intellectual property, which cannot actually be stolen, only used or distributed without permission. Thats a civil "crime", and carries a penalty of dollar signs not years in prison.

When will people stop buying the RIAA's garbage that downloading anything is the same as theft. Its not, and it never was. Copyright infringement is not the same as stealing. Period.

As long as I don't go online and see players with modded 360s I'm fine. Don't want to play against people with ridiculous super jumps and running speeds and auto aim BR that shoot sniper bullets. I will be snitching on any such asshole.

Gimme a break - the game is 4 days away. Seems like an awful waste of effort for having the game a mere half week before everyone else. Spend some time with Bioshock or Gears... you won't have time for them once Halo comes out anyway. :D

Effort ? You click a few buttons, and you have the game in your hands for free.

I'd say the waste of effort would be going to work to make $60 :P

The armor that guy's (or is it girl's?) wearing in the pic looks a hell of a lot better than the crap that sold on ebay for $21 grand.
