Some sneaky off-screen shots of what's claimed to be Halo: Reach have appeared online.

NeoGAF picked up on Tom Morello, confirmed to be a 'bogus and fake' user at the MLG message boards, posting up the following screenshots of Halo: Reach.
After posting up the screenshots, he says: "Overall gameplay was about the same as the other Halos... They made me play through the first 3 missions. The first mission was on a pretty big map, and I had to find other spartans on the map (similar to Halo 1's second stage where you have to find the crash landed marines).
"Second stage was pretty action packed, main goal was to take control of several huge missile guns throughout the map, and provide coverage to a spartan that would hack into the guns and control them.
"Third stage was very similar to Halo 1's 3rd stage, Truth and Reconciliation. You start with a sniper and cloaking perk, you sneak into an enemy base at night, and you shoot from cliffs."
Other news is that the battle rifle has returned with single shots and 12 rounds while there's a new weapon which is a cross between the Spartan Laser and Needler.
There also appears to be a perks system in place - the perks on display here are Sprinting (hold RB to run), Cloaking (makes you invisible but jams your radar) and 'Halogram' (creates a hologram enemies shoot at).
The only question that now remains is whether these are the real deal or not. Bungie has banned anyone from mentioning them on the forums, Microsoft is following its usual policy of not commenting on rumour or speculation. What do you think of these shots?
