NeoGAF has found a videoon YouTube this morning from user Skid Kid, which shows him putting a VHS tape into a TV that is sitting on a hay bale while he blasts obnoxious music in the background. You really can’t make this stuff up. The strangest part is that the video appears to be playing footage ofHalo 4, which is appropriately grainy and hard to see for a VHS tape. At the very least, it’s definitely notHalo 3orHalo: Reach, so there’s that. Microsoft had this to say to Kotaku about the video:
We are conducting an internal beta test ofHalo 4which is a standard development practice for most video games. We have no plans for a public multiplayer beta forHalo 4.
That would indicate that this videoisofHalo 4, and the fact that the video has still not been taken down would indicate thatsomeonewants it to be up. Of course, with E3 so close, many people are speculating that this is a viral marketing stunt by either 343 Industries or Microsoft themselves. The video description also links tothis Twitter user, making the whole thing just that much stranger. I’m still trying to imagine that if this wasn’t done by someone internally, this guy somehow managed to sneak off with a damn VHS tape ofHalo 4. Even if it’s fake, it’s still humorous all the same.
