CGW September issue a bit behind
Mhaddy =PN= writes to let us know that he's put up scans of a Halo article from the September 2000 issue of Computer Gaming World at the Junkyard. (There are also scans of a Tribes 2 article, and a funny column that should be appreciated by gamers who are parents everywhere.) The information isn't new (in fact, it's no longer even accurate), but there is some good background on the purchase, and it's a great example of how far behind the print media really are. THIS is why we've suddenly gotten a deluge of forum posters and emailers begging Bungie to reconsider and create a Mac/PC version. Thanks, Mhaddy! (Louis Wu 12:54:57 UTC) (permalink)
Marty O'Donnell Interview at MacCentral
Thanks to TomeOne (via email) and edge (via our forum) for pointing out an interview with Marty O'Donnell at MacCentral. A snippet:
MG: What's involved in creating the alien language we hear in the trailer? It certainly manages to sound otherworldly, but also feels like there's dialogue and meaning, as opposed to just cool sounding noise.
MOD: Well, for this trailer we were in kind of a rush so the alien language is not necessarily the final content that you'll hear in the actual game. I'm not going to give away all my production secrets, but what you hear was based on the English language and I believe that we will actually try and develop a true alien language for the game. One of the cool things that the trailer shows is that not only will the Covenant have their own language, but they can also speak and understand English, if they need to.
Read the whole thing... as usual, Marty's got a lot to say! (Louis Wu 00:48:44 UTC) (permalink)
