In Response To: Re: It's sad that it has come to this. (Stephen L. (SoundEffect))


: To keep something so high profile from leaking, it should not have been
: available via download OR physical copy. You want to see it? Visit Bungie
: Studios and they'll show you there.

In an ideal world, maybe.
Though its not the best circumstances to actually write a review as opposed to a simple hands on impression.

And that certainly was the case earlier on in the games development.
But this is just what happens in the Industry. Happens with films too.
In this sense Halo isn't actually special. Its just higher profile and thus earning more attention.
Hell, I remember how an beta build of Sonic 2 for the Mega-Drive was stolen from a trade-show many moons ago.

Roland has raised a pretty good point. At least this way its possible for MS to track down the people responsible and take action as well as to improve marketplace security.
Similar to how Valve were able to track down the hacker who stole the Half-Life 2 source code.
