Curse the French and the Internet!
If you haven't already heard, nearly 100 copies of Halo 3: ODST got out in France a month before the September 22 release date. Microsoft had stated they were trying to handle the situation, noting there was a leak somewhere along their distribution process.
We're not sure whether Microsoft has managed to bring down the wrath of unholy retribution on the ones responsible (we hope so), but the damage has already been done. Recently, someone decided to be cute by posting the ODST Legendary difficulty ending online.
If you actually want to ruin the game for yourself, or simply don't care, then check the source link below for the video; the ending is in French with English subtitles. Out of respect for the men and women at Bungie, we will not post it here. Hopefully this does not affect your decision to purchase the game.
We must also remind you that this cinematic is a MASSIVE spoiler, so watch at your own risk. Seriously, don't come crying to us if you accidentally click "Play" and stay glued to your seat for three minutes.
And no, I did not watch this. I plan to actually play through the entire game on Legendary to unlock this cinematic and, you know, keep my self-respect as a gamer.
I think it's pretty sad that someone would ruin the game for other people. ):
End of story.
Bungie would never leak the game to anyone before release.
If I wasin their position, I'd just go onto a website and say the ending is absolutely epic or something. And all the proofneeded would be an Xbox having the game inserted and starting. But no. They're french.
Bloody french.
