Fuite (French For Leak).


Gah. We've spent months, years even, seeking out scraps of new info about Halo 2. Then, just a few weeks from launch, a copy gets leaked. All of a sudden, the whole dynamic changes. Far from seeking new material, everyone's in fear of it. People are leaving forums rather than stumble across a spoiler in a post title. Not great.

Sad to say I'm one of those said people who are avoiding forums....well, except for Halo Babies' art related areas.

It was bad enough before the leaked copy, now it's just to risky. I don't want anything blown for me. I mean, half the reason why Halo was so fun was that you didn't know anything about it as you played, and learned as you went. I LIKE suprises.

I hope the wanker who stole that copy gets just what he deserves....

btw, do you have msn? I gab with BOLL, and c0ld with it. Email me if ya do, I'm trying to avoid irc....

I am so concerned about this that I have stayed locked in my house ever since the leak was announced. I have locked all the doors, nailed boards to my windows, and put masking tape around the door frames in case it becomes airborne. To make triple sure, I smashed my modem to pieces with a hatchet, burned the USB cable, and ate (yes -- ate!) several CD's in case they had become infected with the leaked copy. This was also (partly) because I am now completely out of food and dare not venture out to the shops. It is no exageration to say that this is the single biggest crisis that has ever befallen me, and that I now fear for my sanity. (And Lord knows, I am dreading my next bowel movement.... I am anticipating a scenario that might bring a tear even to Lieutenant Commander Data's robotic eye...)

Give me access to a replica SPNKR Launcher, a trip to France, and a photo of said offender's rear orifice...I'll gladly oblige. >D

Yes - I am even more irate than previously, having just spent an excrutiating 20 minutes passing 1.8 GB of partially masticated compact disk. Moreover, I am shocked and appalled at the lengths that these swines are going to spoil it for everyone. For example, I just read an article in our local Hartlepool Chronicle; apparently a rather tedious piece about proposed strike action by local refuse contractors. I then noticed that if you took the first letter of the first five lines of this paragraph, it spelled out the word "Algar". I strongly suspect that this is the name of one of the new Covenant aliens! Gah, indeed! It is a real shame when the actions of a few ruin the enjoyment for everbody else. But you will have to excuse me - I need to change my dressings...
 
I am afraid this guy is right. I'm from Wisconsin and I just found the whole Halo 2 story-line, plus a number of detailed maps, hidden cleverly in an advertisment for pension plans! Those SOBs - it's not safe to read anything, guys!!!
 
...thanks...I think...

Next thing you'll know, we'll be seeing episodes of the "Grunts Who Say Ni"...

Come on guys - you're getting paranoid here. I remember being told about the "milennium bug" in 1999. On the suggestion of a friend, I sprinkled ant-powder all over the memory chips and graphics card of my computer. Damn thing worked worse afterwards, not better....
