See the SR news story, haven't had time to search the net yet and find where SR's staffie found the anagram answer but a post on bungie.net [URL]http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=392970[/URL] seems to suggest it originates from IGN Forum.
IGN Forum has a supposed scan of an advert in the US OXM for a special edition holiday mag [URL]http://www.wgpimagehost.com/pbpics/mag.jpg[/URL] - if real then it leads onto whether the new UK OXM will be doing a similar issue because we don't get our next OXM until the 17th I think.
Personally I think the magazine ad scan is genuine - if it was not I would expect it to be a much smaller picture, and including a demo would certianly help shift that mag by the bucketful... though I wouldn't be surprised if GAME for example gets a deal also what with them being buddies with MS.
ON another note the ilovebees.com website has many many new changes and additions, including more passages from the Fall Of Reach novel - so far I noticed the bit where one of the outer listening posts detects the covenant.
So, thoughts/info on the possible demo?

I couldn't do that...oooooooooooo-no
I reckon that's the same with many people.
Even if there was a demo, I wouldn't get it.
It's gonna be all or nothing with Halo 2 for me.
