We're not sure if that thing you see above is an actual copy of Halo 3 that somehow slipped out to a member of the general public. Admittedly, it looks real enough, but science was able to fake a moon landing 40 years ago, so you can just imagine what they're capable of now. What we do know, however, was that somebody bought the contents of the image above for AU $149 (about $123 USD).

The other thing that makes this feel authentic is the price. The first bidder bought the thing outright, and the seller likely could have fetched twice what he got. So why put a limit on the auction, unless you don't know how valuable your item is?
