Halo as a market beacon?
Game Studies has posted an intriguing article on Halo, and its place in the gaming world. Not a review so much as a look at what Halo brings to gaming, it studies how Halo tops its competitors, and what makes it special. Definitely worth a read. Thanks to Bowser for the heads-up on this one. (It also mentioned a site called 'MetaCritic', which led to 7 new Halo reviews for our Reviews database.) (Louis Wu 20:30:38 UTC) (permalink)

Peter Tamte on Mac Halo
Inside Mac Games posted an interview with Destineer's Peter Tamte today, in which Tamte discusses Halo for Mac. Here's a small quote:
Mike Phillips: After Halo's announcement, the Mac gaming community let out a collective "w00t!" of joy. Can you give us a progress update on Halo and will it be a simultaneous Mac/PC release?
Peter Tamte: Everyone who is involved in the project is committed to a simultaneous Windows/Mac release for Halo. The progress on Halo is meeting all the internal schedules so far.
For the rest of the interview (concerning Halo and Destineer's other projects) head over to IMG. Pax. (Crux Fidelis 17:37:04 UTC) (permalink)
EP drools over Halo 2
Electric Playground got to see the Halo 2 trailer at a Microsoft event in Toronto last week. They wrote up their impressions - as well as some questions they asked at the time (and the answers, or non-answers, they received). Not a whole lot new... but worth a read. Thanks to the Junkyard for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 13:03:08 UTC) (permalink)
That's just MEAN, man!
Warbow Home Video presents... Payback. Starring MC as Porter, Cortana as Val Resnick, and Little Grunt as Pearl. You can download the trailer from Mythica.org - it's 7.4 mb, 1:17 long, and in QT5 format. We can't wait to see the released film! (Louis Wu 12:48:14 UTC) (permalink)
I want one of those!
dogsounds does it again... another great comic starring your favorite UNSC death dealer. The model was done by Strykerwolf - you can find more of his work in the Miscellaneous section. This picture, though, is in the Miscellaneous art section. (Louis Wu 12:26:02 UTC) (permalink)
