A synergy of subtleties
Gamesradar.uk has put up a pretty massive article called 'The Making of... Halo'. It's a fascinating look behind the scenes - what made it in, what didn't, and in some cases, why. This is a web version of the Edge Magazine feature 'The Making of...' - maybe the January 2004 issue (out in the UK in about 3 weeks). Jaime Griesemer talks quite a bit about how some decisions were made, and even Marty O'Donnell gives away a secret or two:
"And that melee attack sound on the back of a Hunter - gabonk? Think watermelon wrapped in tin foil, and a baseball bat."
Fantastic writing, and a great recap of what makes Halo the addictive masterpiece it is. Thanks to Xzzy for the heads-up! (Louis Wu 19:55:05 UTC)
