Dennis Taylor sends word of a John Carmack interview over at Thresh's Firing Squad. In the section titled (strangely enough) "id is not a publisher", Carmack has this to say about Halo:
FS: Are you interested in Halo at all?
John: I've watched the movies of it; it looks pretty good. The one problem right now is that there's no way to really judge anything from screenshots because any halfway competent rendering engine can render any given scene. And it's only in how things tie together that there's any differentiation. Certainly the Bungie people, they've got a lot of talent. And they've been doing this basically as long as we have. They were kind of id's Mac shadow for many years. But now that they've gone ahead and had some mainstream PC success, they're doing pretty well.
Do you agree with his assessment of Bungie's place in the gaming industry? Sound off! (Louis Wu 18:58:29 UTC)
