Halo Reach Leaked

It seems that the secrets of Halo: Reach are being revealed early due to a recent leak on Xbox Live. Microsoft recently posted an early copy of Halo: Reach for industry reviewers on a hidden section of the Xbox Live Marketplace. Despite costing 99,999 MS Points ($1200 USD) on the marketplace hackers were able to overcome this limit and download the game’s code. From there they were able to remove the restrictions placed on the games files and make it playable on modified consoles.

Microsoft has stated that they are investigating this security hole and will be working to patch it. Early leaks are nothing new for the Halo franchise. Halo 2 was leaked four weeks before its release in 2004 thanks to employees at a manufacturing plant. Halo 3: ODST was also sold several weeks before its street date in Europe.

Halo fans who wish to avoid leaked spoilers and screenshots may want to avoid popular game forums and video streaming sites where such secrets may be posted. The ending to Halo 3 was famously posted weeks before the games release which angered many fans.
