Shane Kim looks down the road
There's an interview with Shane Kim over at Gamasutra; they asked him about projects Bungie might be working on outside Halo 3, and he mentioned the upcoming episodic content announced at X06 last fall:
I know that we are working with Peter Jackson on the next installment in the Halo series and that we've had that planning going on, and when one production team is finished with Halo 3, they need to be ready to move on to the next thing. That's really how you manage the life cycle of a studio.
He's not really saying very much - but it's nice to know this work is still ongoing. (We haven't heard anything official since that first announcement.) (Louis Wu 16:30:15 UTC) (permalink)
The Forthcoming World of Halo
ActionTrip wrote up a piece looking at the upcoming roadmap for the Halo franchise in the near future (Halo 2 Vista, Halo 3, and Halo Wars). In general, it's a nice summary. Thanks, Ure Paul. (Louis Wu 14:58:00 UTC) (permalink)
Bring Me The Head Of Content Management.
Stuntmutt fills in the missing pieces of the Next Generation interview we mentioned - check today's One One Se7en for details. (Louis Wu 14:18:03 UTC) (permalink)
They are keeping their heads
Next Generation sat down with Frank O'Connor to talk about the Halo 3 development process. It's an interesting read - even if it doesn't answer some of the loudest questions people are asking ("when is the beta coming out?", for example). Bungie learned a lot from Halo 2 - looks like they're actually USING that information for Halo 3. Nice! Thanks, 3Suns. (Louis Wu 13:08:57 UTC) (permalink)
FS2H Weekly Update 2.0
Devrous is back with another FS2H update - FS2H, you might remember, is his Halo mod for Freespace 2. This one lays out his vision for the project, and introduces a number of flight craft that will be available. Some are familiar... some are not. Check it out! (Louis Wu 12:27:53 UTC) (permalink)
The Ultimate Halo Showdown
Glasser stopped by to mention a vid he'd made - he set 'The Ultimate Showdown' (a song created for a popular Newgrounds Flash) to Halo action. Interesting cuts; all footage comes from cutscenes, but the sync with the song is quite good. The vid is available at YouTube. (Louis Wu 12:23:58 UTC) (permalink)
Good Guys and Guns
Narcogen has put up the second of his three-part series comparing Gears of War to Halo - this one focuses on friendly AI and weapons. It's more a summary of Gears of War than a comparison, actually - but read it so that you're ready for part 3. (Louis Wu 12:16:14 UTC) (permalink)
