Halo 4 leak being investigated; Disc 2 contains multiplayer installation
Images have surfaced on social sites NeoGAF and Reddit, depicting two Halo 4 retail discs, and the Xbox 360 dashboard featuring the game ready to be played.
"We have seen the reports of 'Halo 4' content being propped on the Web and are working closely with our security teams and law enforcement to address the situation," a Microsoft spokesperson told Joystiq.
In clarifying whether the images represent the actual artwork featured on retail copies of Halo 4, Microsoft explained the need for two discs.
According to the publisher, Halo 4's second disc "contains data that will need to be installed on an Xbox 360 hard drive or compatible flash storage device with at least 8GB of available memory in order to access 'Halo 4's' extensive suite of multiplayer features." Microsoft has employed a similar system for first-party games like Forza Motorsport 4.
Once the data is installed only the first disc will be required to access Halo 4's single- and multiplayer content.

BuckyBucked games having more than one disk = genius. more content, so more fun. you DONT have to use the second disk so ppl should stop saying so. if you want, throw the disc away. your complaining about nothing.
No they need 2 discs cause their discs is not big enough. Why do you think Blu-Ray was created? Up to 100 GB on 1 disc. You need to think about it.
So youre saying the game is over 100gb? I dont believe that

Prefire one disk is multiplayer so thats probably the only one ill have in the console. Not that big of a deal.
Obviously it is a huge deal. They are console banning left and right.
