Halo news back Friday, December 6, 2002 Halo news forward

Halo audio discussion at Music4Games.net
Music4Games.net has put up a discussion between Marty O'Donnell and Aaron Marks, a freelance composer/sound designer and author of 'The Complete Guide to Game Audio', about the use of audio in Halo and Halo 2. A snippet, Marty discussing how he managed the job for Halo:

Part of my ability to manage the whole thing came because I had no other project to work on. Until Halo, I had been running my own business and had other clients and projects. With Halo, I thought of nothing else, probably almost to the point of obsession (I'm getting help, don't worry). But this enabled me to pay attention to every detail of implementing audio. Jay Weinland, my right hand man here at Bungie, and I shared the same vision for Halo's audio and it was a relief to know that someone else was being as compulsive as me.

A pretty good discussion... go read the rest! (Louis Wu 18:23:26 UTC) (permalink)

Daily Fiction Update
Friday's Fan Fiction:

Also, just 7 hours after a news post mentioning that we really, really aren't happy with revisions, we received a revision of Bobby Lucas' Sarges Platoon, Chapter 1. I'm going to try again, nicely: We'd really, really, really appreciate it if you'd proofread your stories BEFORE you submit them, and accept the state in which they're submitted - revisions are a pain in the behind for the maintainers. :( I'm gonna hope that this gentle reminder actually has some effect...

Random Halo Sighting
op_ivy found an interesting article about a new breed of gaming center... and though no games are mentioned by name, the mockup of what the place will look like has a huge (and I mean HUGE) wallscreen showing... Halo. Nice! (Louis Wu 15:28:09 UTC) (permalink)
