News \ More Halo DS Controversy

Hey! After Matt From IGN Claimed In A Blog Entry That He Had Played The Demo For Halo DS A Wave Of Media Began.... To silence all claims that he is a "great big fat liar" he has posted this video claiming that this is the Halo DS Demo. Along with this statement.

"Matt From IGN Said:Some time ago, I blogged about playing a cancelled version of Halo DS. The game was the real deal, created by a real development studio and with a very big publisher. But for reasons we won't discuss, Halo DS was never released. Clearly. Obviously. Still, it would've been cool, huh?"

My Halo DS blog has haunted me since I posted it because many people were skeptical of my claims. I wouldn't make something like that up, of course, but that hardly silenced any of my critics. When my brother called me the other day and told me that I even have a Wikipedia page that calls into question my Halo DS blog, I realized I had to at the very least prove that I hadn't completely hatched the entire thing. So I figured what better way to mute naysayers than to show off the game I played. With that in mind, I present to you Halo DS videos and screenshots below. Please, somebody update my Wikipedia page.

"Matt Also Said:Let's be clear. This game will never see the light of day. At the same time, the below videos prove that Halo DS wasn't a garage project by a two-man team. There were some very big names involved with this title, so it's a shame you won't get to play it."

1st Video:

2nd Video:

These videos only cause further controversy due to there distinct likeness to Goldeneye Rouge Agent DS, Is it possible that EA Games could have been developing this game, or is it as Matt flatly denies that this is actually a two man garage project. Another problem that is thrown into the mix why does the Warthog just sit there never driven is it just that it is a simple model with no working mechanics?

When questioned about these similarities to goldeneye all he said was:

"Matt Said This As Well: Some of you guys are really still questioning the validity of this once-in-development project? Wow. Again, it was a game underway by a big-name third party. It didn't work out, as we all know. It is not some mod or hack or fake or "bull****." Those of you who claim it is simply don't know what you're talking about. Somebody even suggested I wasn't even controlling the game in the video. Are you high? At any rate, I've done my part, so you can choose to believe it or not. If you don't, you're wrong, not me. No lies or conspiracies here -- just a proof of concept that unfortunately went nowhere."

Which means he has no answers for these claims. Or is it just that he is sick and tired of people not believing him. Why is it that this evidence has only become available now!

But The Most Important Question. Will This Be Leaked As Homebrew?

I Hope So!!!!!
