- gizmogear, on 10/12/2007, -4/+106I have patience...bandwidth and no morals.... too bad I don't own a 360.
- teamparadox, on 10/12/2007, -6/+59Dont feel bad man, I post things that get duped and then the dupe hits the front page all the time. Its all about timing my friend and aparently neither of us have any.

- slimthps, on 10/12/2007, -11/+477.2gb is already getting pretty close to DVD's limit..
- TiMMY8765, on 10/12/2007, -4/+31I'm not sure how youre gonna get a usenet download with utorrent
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -7/+27With about a month left for release, you had BETTER be gold and getting the game pressed, packed, and shipped.
- cyanid3, on 10/12/2007, -4/+20Sorry for abusing threads...
This has turned out to be fake. I was on #alt.binaries.games.xbox360 when this thing started. It was a joke by some of the higher-up guys like Mork, dvcd and jamex.
Marked as innacurate. And besides, this was 2 days ago! - _CerealKilla_, on 10/12/2007, -6/+20"But tell me, why on earth would you want to upload 7.2GB to your freaking 360's hard drive?"
You know, they have those dvd burner things now.... - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14@halleyscomet
yea...totaly not possible if loading/changing Firmware was possible from a DVD on the 360 then they wouldnt have that odd way of doing it now - Kles, on 10/12/2007, -4/+15Um, look at the comments in the actual Joystiq article. It's a fake, and the uploader admitted it was.
- afx1, on 10/12/2007, -6/+14@Mejoqid, P5sycHo:
9GB IS a dual-layer DVD - xerox, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10"How long have you been hiding under a rock? Ever heard of modding?"
you are retarded. you can't run xbox360 games from HDD. - Rickler, on 10/12/2007, -2/+98.5GB is dual layer.
and 8.5GB is really 7.91624188 gigabytes - chedabob, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9if you actually knew anything about the firmware, you would know that the little dvd trick is to get them running WITH the firmware. this isnt the playstation or the ps2 you know.
- HappyScrappy, on 10/12/2007, -7/+12Full version of GoW leaked? Answer: no.
It's a fake.
Buried. - gamedtx, on 10/12/2007, -11/+15source?
- persecutor, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4The first rule of Usenet is, you do not talk about Usenet.......
- cyanid3, on 10/12/2007, -6/+9Yep, the game is fake..I was on IRC when this 'joke' started... Too bad bittorrenters are digging you down ;)
- chedabob, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4^^
thankyou. somebody with a little bit of knowledge - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2lolololol lofl lowl pissing my self here reading these comments.
- chokeslam, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3it IS gold. the version people will be playing in the theatres on wednesday is the full game...
- DeepFreezed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2it's PDZ not GOW
- roseysdaddy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1wtf are you talking about? i personally know 'a handful of people with modded fw on their xboxs' and by ahandful...9 off the top of my head. everyone that HAS an xbox 360 that i know has it modded. 60*9=-$540 buck the big MS isnt going to be seeing when this hits the piracy scene...and thats just in my hand.
- cyanid3, on 10/12/2007, -4/+5@nubtard:
It's the fact that they're below us in the 'foodchain' when it comes to warez, and that they generally digg down every pro-usenet comment. But as always, we know the truth before them :)
Please don't digg this down :P - 0004, on 07/04/2008, -2/+3http://digg.com/userblock/32756

a)
he's stealing other people's stories, re-posting them, and then using his zombie botnet usernames to bury the original author when he complains. (see top of this thread)
I never saw a user comment getting buried so fast or so deep by a spammer here.
ORIGINAL story:
http://digg.com/gaming_news/Gears_of_War_leaked
b) the page he links to is a LINK FARM ffs...
not to mention the advertising revenue he gets there. - wheeliedude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I really don't care if this one was the popular one or not.
I just wanted to note that. - philz, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4With the xbox you uploaded them, with the new: You mod your DVD drive, nothing else. And that allows you to _burn_ your games, not uploading them.
HTH - chokeslam, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2tf it isn't gold... i'm going to go play it on wednesday after texas chainsaw massacre
- Codename, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It wouldn't be suprising if it did though, it comes out in a month, so it's very possible it could be leaked.
- tknaught, on 10/12/2007, -9/+10The fact that it's not listed on either console-news.org or nforce.nl provides about 99% confirmation in my mind.
Those sites exist for the sole purpose of monitoring pirated releases, and a game as big as GoW would not go under the radar. - Mesach, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I've got so much bandwidth I don't need patience.
- nreynolds, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3why am i being modded down? don't you have to do a certain type of soft-mod for this to work? And the mod only works on the some of the dvd drives. Is there another way I can get my 360 to play "backed up" games?
- macgabriel87, on 10/12/2007, -4/+3@wheeliedude you should thank us for not digging your dupe because this one is inaccurate. and its better to have a dup with a few digs than one with 200 that has negative feedback.
but since you are such a stubborn prick to have your digg be the 'popular' one, you dont deserve a pat on your shoulder. - ka0tic, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2Ok guys let's just pretend this was real for one second. How many people do you think would really download this and get this to work? I mean there's only a handful of people with modded 360's so if this was real, the developers need not worry.
- dec0ded, on 10/12/2007, -10/+8Mod @ NFORCE.NL
This was proven to be a fake 3 days ago.
**burried** - GodsHand, on 10/12/2007, -9/+6This is fake.
- zetsurin, on 10/12/2007, -8/+4Flim flam.
- MasteRR, on 10/12/2007, -12/+8So fake unrelleased stuff on Usnet/Torrents/Etc is news now? Everyone start to expect 30 "X was leaked on Y" news stories a day, now.
- gamedtx, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Umm, excuse me? Who the hell are you?
1) How am i stealing other peoples stories..?
2) I'm a spammer? Okayyyy.... *rolls eyes*
3) Are you on crack?
Get a life... stop trying to accuse people. You're just making youself look stupid. - afx1, on 10/12/2007, -11/+6"I doubt the game is even finished yet, still over a month until release.
They're probably close tho."
Not like they have to manufacture the DVDs and distribute them or anything. I mean they start that a couple days before release, right. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Burried? Is that like, what a burro does? Are you a burro? Because you burried this, and I am pretty sure only burros burry things.
I'm sure you really are a mod, which is why I'm never going to use that site - any site with mods of your intelligence isn't worth visiting. - cyanid3, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1@d00k:
Yeah....Only if it was the real thing though ;) - 15charmaxwtf, on 10/12/2007, -13/+7Funny stuff.
- sfackler, on 10/12/2007, -11/+5@chedabob
How long have you been hiding under a rock? Ever heard of modding? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -8/+2I actually agree.
- pogfreak, on 10/12/2007, -16/+10Fake story about an overhyped game being pirated. THANK YOU DIGG.COM USERS
- gamedtx, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2If they follow the trend of xbox 1, games will only get smaller as the lifetime of the 360 progresses.
- jhatcom, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1Even if I wasn't concerned about piracy (I am), I can't imagine going to all the trouble to download this thing. I'd rather just wait and spend the money for it.
- nubtard, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2What has bittorrent got to do with it?
- P5ycHo, on 10/12/2007, -9/+2Guys! I'm just playing with those poor 360 fanboys who've been dissing the ps3 BD. A little bit off topic, but slim's comment made me do it. It made me laugh.
