Rumor: Gears of War 3 Build Inadvertently Leaked by Microsoft - Polidicks

[IMG]http://media.exophase.net/images/2011/07/GOWLeak.jpg[/IMG] [release]According to [URL="http://twitter.com/#!/Mathieulh/status/88983188952723456"]Mathieulh[/URL], the recent build of [I]Gears of War 3[/I] that [URL="http://exophase.com/23683/gears-of-war-3-leak-hits-torrent-sites/"]appeared[/URL] on torrent sites earlier this month may have been inadvertently leaked by Microsoft themselves. A Google query for “codify.com xbox” will reveal Microsoft’s Xbox 360 Codify page which may have, at one point, offered up [I]Gears of War 3[/I] for grabs. The offending pages and files have been taken offline, however Google Cache has record accessible [I]GOW3[/I] files on the site. The incriminating results included a page that revealed the directory for the [I]Gears of War 3[/I] files, only marking it “confidential” in the folder name and providing no other securities against unauthorized access. Yet another page revealed game assets. It’s unclear if this was the source of the leak, however it is a possibility given that the [I]Gears of War 3[/I] “Confidential” directory was accessible at one time by the average joe.[/release] [URL="http://exophase.com/23731/rumor-gears-of-war-3-build-leaked-by-microsoft/"]http://exophase.com/23731/rumor-gears-of-war-3-build-leaked-by-microsoft/ [/URL] Nice one Microsoft

Who cares if it's leaked, you are gonna wait for it to be released anyway.

[quote]The offending pages and files have been taken offline[/quote] What does that even mean?

[QUOTE=Nikota;30971844]What does that even mean?[/QUOTE] That the folders and files that contained allegedly leaked content were removed.

This is what you get when you let Karen Traviss write the story. EVERYONE'S GONNA FUCKING DIE.

[QUOTE=TheMercWithAMouth;31003509]Does Carmine live.[/QUOTE] I BOUGHT A T-SHIRT YES HE DOES TOGETHER WE CAN BELIEVE

2011 will be remembered as the year of Leaks, Hacks, and general Corporate Blunders.

[QUOTE=imasillypiggy;31003386]You beat a game that isn't even finished yet? Somehow I don't believe you.[/QUOTE] You do know that games are often finished several months before release date and it was delayed because of the multiplayer beta?

All of the gameplay was leaked to youtube... Dunno if anyone else saw it or not. Fuck, they removed it. Damn you youtube.
