Days before its release, a pirated copy of Halo 3 makes its way to the Internet for illegal download.

Several piracy sites began hosting downloads earlier this week of the full and complete Halo 3 disc.

On Thursday, it was reported that many UK retailers had broken the game's street date given the anticipated demand.

Due to its popularity leading up to a 2004 launch, Halo 2 was also made available online as an illegal download.

It's worth noting that pirated games only work on modified Xbox 360 units. Additionally, daring gamers who meddle in piracy run the risk of being permanently banned from Xbox Live, or worse, facing legal action.
