Halo Love, Aussie Style According to Hedgemony, Halo is pushing Xbox sales in Australia STILL, more than a year after release. (Okay, it's only been out for 8 months Down Under... but you know what I mean.) For more details and speculation, check his forum post! (Louis Wu 20:15:10 UTC) (permalink)
2003 GDC details surface The 2003 Game Developers Conference is coming up soon (March 4-8, just 4 months away), and there are already at least three Bungie talks scheduled: - Marty O'Donnell will be part of a 6-person panel deciding Does Melody Matter?
- Jaime Griesemer, Tim Longo, and Randy Smith (of Ion Storm) will look at level design On All Levels
- Marty, Jaime, and Mat Noguchi will discuss Halo: Development Evolved
(There's another session listed, but it seems to be a duplicate of the last one.) Sounds like there might be some good stuff to hear! (Louis Wu 19:48:11 UTC) (permalink)
Of Movies and Such Recently, someone going by the name of ArakniZ has been dropping movies off in our Uploads directory. They're in WMP9 format, so we can't watch them. (There is no player for WMP9 for Macs, and none of the front-page HBO staffers has a PC.) Normally, we'd email this information... but ArakniZ hasn't given us an email address. We cannot post what we cannot watch; anyone who wants a movie posted by us needs to put it in a format we can see. (And we'd really, really, REALLY like email addresses we can contact you at, so that we don't have to waste valuable front-page real estate sending personal messages... you don't want it posted, that's fine, but we'd like to be able to contact you about your work.) I've added this information to the Movies page, as well. All that said, we DO have a new vid for you to watch; Calvin has dropped off a short piece analyzing what makes a movie worth watching. (Please don't take it too seriously.) It's in QuickTime format, is just under 2 minutes long, and weighs in at 6.4 mb. We've put a copy up at Mythica.org (which had another terabyte month for the Halo cause - thanks, Brian!). (Louis Wu 11:54:50 UTC) (permalink)
Salvation, huh? MereCatFish drops off a desktop for our Wallpaper collection. (Louis Wu 11:40:21 UTC) (permalink)
