Halo 3 Leaked to BitTorrent

Users with modded consoles get an early taste of the much anticipated third chapter in the highly successful and critically acclaimed Halo franchise.

Not scheduled for official release until tomorrow North America and on the following day in Europe, bootleg copies of Halo 3 for the Xbox 360 have already shown up on BitTorrent sites everywhere and Microsoft is none too pleased.

The leak is not expected to do too much damage since users would need a modded Xbox console to play the game, and since Microsoft began banning modded consoles from the Xbox Live network earlier this year it would mean that people would have to forgo a critical part of the Halo 3 experience — networked gaming.

A few sites are blaming the leak on UK video game retailer Argos, which inadvertently released copies of the game well ahead of the launch date because of an "administrative error".

Either way, Halo 3 will be considered a must have title for any discerning gamer and a bootleg copy that won’t be Xbox Live capable just won’t cut it.
