DO NOT POST NEWS INCORRECT TITLE!


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.

Hmmm, I wouldn't think that Matt would want to tarnish the good reputation that he has by flat out lying about something like this, unless there is some reason behind it. It sure would make a good prank, a dare perhaps? Still, I am slightly inclined to believe it just because it's coming from him.

Well, you wouldn't think that Microsoft would dream of trying to take on the handheld market with a system of their own, at least not in the near future, and only if it's going to be breathtaking. I guess, this would be a good way for them to cash in on the handheld market. I'm not sure how well the game would play on the ds though, would it be worth them risking a really bad Halo just to test it out?

Then there's Nintendo. If I was them, I wouldn't be letting Halo on my system just out of pride! No matter how much money the game would make me!

And bear in mind, I know next to NOTHING about Goldeneye.

If you ask me, someone else might pitch it to Microsoft and let it roll, seeing as Bungie is sick of it.

hey i just got this magazine it said bungie was leaving microsoft, but they said they would still make halo games, im not exactly sure if this is true or not but if it is they will still make games for the 360 but they might make games for other systems aswell and that would be awesome (the magazine was called xbox 360 world it is an english magazine and i love it)

Slinky sorry but bungie going solo is extremely old news, it happened quite a few months ago! Bungie has said its nothing big they are still making games only for the xbox 360. Somehow I doubt a DS game is in the works after they said they wanted to take a break from halo!

ps. please someone lock this thread... it has been finished.

Round Up:

It remains unknown whether this demo is a real demo or not, it has been proven that this game was not made by Bungie but there still remains a possibility that this game was made by another copy as a mock-up and pitched to Bungie who then declined it. Due to the extreme similarity that this demo has to goldeneye rouge agent on DS, if this was done by a company it would most likely have been done by EA.
