Halo 2 Leaked...

What do you mean by Nuked (I tried using Nforce before but it was too complicated with no one being able to help me, so I stuck to Xbins and suprnova)

By nuked he meant nuked.

At least try to learn some of the basic terms when you fuċk around with warez.

:cry:  I want that game , i know where to download it but i don't do it  :cry:

What's stopping you?

Your conscience?

Get it & buy it (which, nowadays, are two different things), no harm done.

Since you're using Windows they are punishing you ... so, they don't need to sue you.

Indeed, lol :rofl:

Nuked usually means a bad rip or it doesnt work right or missing stuff, and when its nuked they usually "flame" the group for a bad release

Huh?

Check that link earlier in my post ;)

Nuking is there to stop distribution of fuċked up or crappy releases.

And since it's done on a site based level (thus by a single or very small circle of person(s)), how should there be 'flaming' involved?

read this earlier on bbc news :

and i quote :

" We consider downloading this code or making it available for others to download as theft," said the company in a statement "

All of you who have stated that you have downloaded it might want to edit your post as if microsoft did pursue everyone who downloaded it then neowin would have no choice but to hand your information to microsoft in a court of law :no:

what the **** is dvd 5 and 9, are they regions?

584735465[/snapback]

dvd9 is like when a dvd has 2 layers on it .. so you can store a lot more then a "regular" dvd5.. which is only 1 layer.. that's about 4.7gb as we know.. dvd9 is about double.. or something like that :p

what the **** is dvd 5 and 9, are they regions?

584735465[/snapback]

DVDs can either have one or two layers. DVD5 can hold 4.7 GB of data, and DVD9 can hold twice that much. The reason that DVD9 is bad when it comes to pirating is that household DVD burners cannot burn dual-layer DVDs.

DVD5 is a single layered DVD that holds ~4.7GB of data.

DVD9 is a dual-layered disc holding more than 9GB.

Actually there are dual layer burners now :p

thats what i was trying to say

Oops, sorry ;)

Didn't mean to sound rude...

Because Microsofts PR guys now make the law? :rolleyes:

If I downloaded it I did only that.

If I buy stolen goods, am I a thief?

It's always the same basic debate all over again ;)

what the **** is dvd 5 and 9, are they regions?

584735465[/snapback]

DVD 5 = Just one layer, one side. About 5GiB of data fit on one (hence the name)

DVD 9 = Two layers on one side. About 9GiB of data fit on there (etc.)

DVD 10, DVD 18, go figure ;)

//e: Holy sh?t! 6 posts about this one while I was writing:woot::

and I love how he is bypassing the filters :whistle:

Microsoft can come after me if they want. But sadly they would find nothing. I'm a true loyal fan to bungie and I have not downloaded the release (partially because I was at school all day and couldn't find it anymore when I came home but I guess I could applaud the big M and Bungie for stopping the hosts.....I guess.....*tear*)

Personally, Ill buy it. If you enjoy a game you really should. Not that Im an angel, but the amount of money that goes into some of these games is only rivaled by major motion pictures. These guys need jobs too so they can buy pizza, and the box for the pizza is made by a paper maker, and the sauce is made by the tomato farmers, and delivered by the guy that would probably download the game. Anyway its good for the economy to support those who work hard to bring you cool games. If it was ALL free, no doubt the quality would not be there. If free quality was availavle then where is it?

Anyway, id still like to see some screenshots ;)

Ummm....those screenshotes are more of 'renders' I would say. The Xbox version doesn't look THAT good (sadly).

But like I said before, in response to this leak, I finished my pre-order on Halo 2 (put the other CAN$50.46 down) and walked away with a smile.

Yeah, you've gotta be fast here on neowin. But then again, you would know that having been the 5th person to sign up. :p

584735526[/snapback]

Indeed :happy:

Anyway, I'd be happy to see a PC version of this some day - SO GUY BUY IT EVERYONE! :p

(Considering it runs on the same xbox hardware as Halo 1, I'm hoping perhaps this time they manage to not totally screw up the PC version ;))

    • I don't hate the new menus, I am not a fan of the lack of features and how they went live when they clearly are not complete. The menu itself presents much better than the previous - but what's lacking (IMO) is: 1) Any kind of automated manipulation such as: "this goes on the new menu because you use this feature more often on this filetype" "this is rarely used and will fall back to the old menu" 2) Any kind of user manipulation such as: "a UI to add/remove/order items to the new menu"
    • The biggest issue in this version of Win 11 context menu, from usability standpoint, is the movable row with basic commands. Think of a car analogy...if You turn the week left the infotainment screen will move right and vice versa. With how it works now Microsoft made something forbidden in designing in any UI, software or hardware. I can't grasp who were the morons within Microsoft suggesting it was a good idea and gave it a green light.
    • LibreOffice 26.2.4 by Razvan Serea LibreOffice is the free power-packed Open Source personal productivity suite for Windows, Macintosh and Linux, that gives you six feature-rich applications for all your document production and data processing needs: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Math and Base. Support and documentation is free from our large, dedicated community of users, contributors and developers. You, too, can also get involved! Choosing Between LibreOffice Still and LibreOffice Fresh: LibreOffice Still is a good choice if you value stability, a longer support cycle, and a more conservative approach to software updates. It's suitable for businesses and organizations where reliability and compatibility are crucial. LibreOffice Fresh is ideal if you're an enthusiast or an early adopter who wants to stay on the cutting edge of LibreOffice development and is willing to accept more frequent updates and occasional minor issues. Features: Writer is the word processor inside LibreOffice. Use it for everything, from dashing off a quick letter to producing an entire book with tables of contents, embedded illustrations, bibliographies and diagrams. The while-you-type auto-completion, auto-formatting and automatic spelling checking make difficult tasks easy (but are easy to disable if you prefer). Writer is powerful enough to tackle desktop publishing tasks such as creating multi-column newsletters and brochures. The only limit is your imagination. Calc tames your numbers and helps with difficult decisions when you're weighing the alternatives. Analyze your data with Calc and then use it to present your final output. Charts and analysis tools help bring transparency to your conclusions. A fully-integrated help system makes easier work of entering complex formulas. Add data from external databases such as SQL or Oracle, then sort and filter them to produce statistical analyses. Use the graphing functions to display large number of 2D and 3D graphics from 13 categories, including line, area, bar, pie, X-Y, and net - with the dozens of variations available, you're sure to find one that suits your project. Impress is the fastest and easiest way to create effective multimedia presentations. Stunning animation and sensational special effects help you convince your audience. Create presentations that look even more professional than the standard presentations you commonly see at work. Get your collegues' and bosses' attention by creating something a little bit different. Draw lets you build diagrams and sketches from scratch. A picture is worth a thousand words, so why not try something simple with box and line diagrams? Or else go further and easily build dynamic 3D illustrations and special effects. It's as simple or as powerful as you want it to be. Base is the database front-end of the LibreOffice suite. With Base, you can seamlessly integrate into your existing database structures. Based on imported and linked tables and queries from MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access and many other data sources, you can build powerful databases containing forms, reports, views and queries. Full integration is possible with the in-built HSQL database. Math is a simple equation editor that lets you lay-out and display your mathematical, chemical, electrical or scientific equations quickly in standard written notation. Even the most-complex calculations can be understandable when displayed correctly. E=mc2. LibreOffice also comes configured with a PDF file creator, meaning you can distribute documents that you're sure can be opened and read by users of almost any computing device or operating system.
