Halo news back Sunday, September 23, 2001 Halo news forward

CD or DVD - depends on market penetration
This is NOT to get your hopes up, or down, or whatever - this is information. Jon Kimmich, Product Planner for Halo, has just begun to look into the format that the PC version will be released in. (The choices are multi-CD or DVD.) Read his post for caveats, and realize the decision will be whatever makes most sense at the time... but also remember that HE'S THINKING ABOUT THE PC VERSION RELEASE. It would be silly for the Halo Product Planner to be thinking about the PC version release if there WASN'T going to be a PC version to be released... so all you doubters out there, heed.

Many things we do not understand...
What the...? Flawless Cowboy, otherwise known as Jaime Griesemer, Halo Designer, jumped into a forum discussion today with some... odd info. People were wondering about enemies that can blow themselves up at death, and speculation ran to the idea that the baddies were doing this to deny you weapons, or something similar. The response from Mr. Griesemer?

Those guys don't choose at the moment of death, they are pre-wired to do so as a safety precaution. And it isn't to deny their opponents their weapons, exactly, at least not how you think... and it's definitely not to deny the _player_ anything.

And then a bit more... Ooh. I want this game. (Louis Wu 01:38:32 UTC) (permalink)
