Pirated GTA IV Leaked Onto Internet?

This comes from the Kotaku rumor mill, but nonetheless, if it is true, it's pretty big news. The much anticipated GTA IV appears to have been leaked onto the web in a pirated format playable on the XBox360 console.

Quote:
At around 11:50am Greenwich Mean Time, the PAL version of Grand Theft Auto IV for the Xbox 360 was ripped and leaked to various torrent sites by a ground called iCON. This would of course enable burning a copy for the home console. Meanwhile, the NTSC version is expected within the next 48 hours. YouTube clips have been popping up online of the game's opening and early missions — but as of posting, many of the clips have been taken down. The retail release is a mere six days away. This isn't the first GTA game leaked as San Andreas was as well. And it was leaked a week before, too.

We haven't verified whether the 6.32 GB file really is the full game, but there are plenty of listings on torrent sites now and we contacted Rockstar for comment.
Sucks, but still, this game is going to make a mint for Rockstar. If anything, this is just more hype to an already uber-hyped-up title.

I'm getting this for multiplayer alone. This best buy gift card has been burning a hole in my pocket just for this game.

Well you have 4 days left to pre-order, in my area they aren't taking pre-orders anymore, and what they get on the self they say will be gone in a day.
