Microsoft against Halo ammunition

halo

After a sharp request, Liberty Ammunition renamed their "Halo-point" ammunition, and removed all links with the game Halo. Recently, one might have seen ammunition boxes with the logo "Halo-point" in the same font used by Microsoft for their Halo game on the Discovery show named "Dual Survival".

Unnamed Halo player just had to send a letter to Microsoft to inform them about this “incident”. Microsoft then issued a statement that they have no contract with Liberty Ammunition that manufactures mentioned ammunition, nor any other, and that they contacted the company and demanded removal of all links with the game Halo.

Liberty Ammunition clearly understood that there is no fooling around with Microsoft and they agreed without objection, so that now ammunition bears the name Liberty Ammunition Civil-Defense. Although Halo is a pretty hardcore first person shooter, it is obvious that Microsoft does not want to be associated with the actual weapon, which is not surprising given the recent tragic shootings in the U.S.
