Halo demo on OXBM's game disc?
Uh, oh... In the preview edition of the Official Xbox Magazine (the one included with October's PC Gamer and September's NextGen magazines) is a page devoted to the disc that will be bundled with each issue. The wording of one section scares me...

It only gets better
When you finally pick up that Xbox and a copy of Halo this November, there'll be plenty of reason to rejoice. But let's face it: one game is never enough. Grab our Dec. 4 issue of Official Xbox Magazine and try your gaming hand at the whole range of Xbox titles you'll be drooling over. Only here will you be able to play jaw-dropping demos of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2X, Arctic Thunder, Dead or Alive 3, Cel Damage, Project Gotham, Lord of the Rings, Air Force Delta Storm, and NHL Hitz.

Now, maybe they didn't mention a Halo demo because they were assuming you'd already BOUGHT Halo... but this scares me a bit. There are NO email addresses anywhere in the mag, so we can't ask directly... if anyone from Microsoft, Bungie, or Imagine Media know (for certain) whether the Halo demo will be on OXBM's first game disc or not... we'd love to hear from you. Update: Sam points out that the image of the disc on that same page shows 'Halo' around the edge of the disc, along with the other featured demos. My bad... (Louis Wu 01:35:55 UTC)
