Marty O'Donnell, Bungie's number-one audiophile, stopped by HBO to give them an update on Halo and other titles. Here are a couple of quick cuts:

- The Mighty Chris Butcher was asked to stop playing CounterStrike and actually start working on Halo. His reply maybe next week

...

- The AI controlling the Pillar of Autumn was working so well that it actually picked up Bill Gates (for what he thought was just a tour of Redmond) and made a jump to the other side of the galaxy. Now we have to build a new one that isn't as smart.

Hrm, sounds like there's a minor revolt occuring in the New Zealander portion of Redmond. We wish Rob and Lorraine all of the best on their wedding together! (Be sure to get back to work right away guys!)
