Interactive Halo 3 Manual Powered By Silverlight
In the past couple days, Microsoft has put up two new Halo-related items on the web powered by its Flash-like Silverlight technology; first, the Halo-themed Tafiti search engine (which I've had a little trouble loading) and now an Interactive Halo 3 Manual... which I'm having a bit more luck with. Maybe you will, too.
Canadian Animation Studio Renders Assistance
TeamXbox has the story of Montreal animation studio damnfx, tapped by Bungie to help produce some of the in-engine cinematics of Halo 3.
"Having recently worked on two large format stereoscopic films for IMAX theatres, it was refreshing to focus simply on delivering outstanding animation, while letting Bungie's Halo 3 game engine worry about lighting, rendering and compositing the shots!" said damnfx executive producer Peter Skovsbo.
L For Loser?
HBO notes that they received a strange image, apparently one of many. Fan project? Another prong of the Iris ARG, thought finished last month? Who knows.
Selling Gears To Buy Halo
Chris Martin at Games First writes that between glitchers, hackers, and eight-year-olds, he'll be turning in his copy of Gears of War to pick up Halo 3 next week. Thanks Louis Wu at HBO.
Know Your Halo History
IGN has put together a piece on the history of the Halo franchise; Louis Wu at HBO notes a few inaccuracies they've made, but if you weren't a Halo fan eight years ago you might find some of this "old stuff" interesting.
Possible Superbounces In Halo 3
zOMGWTFUDIED has gotten ahold of an early copy of Halo 3 and discovered what he thinks is a superbounce while dying near the Froman base on Last Resort (Zanzibar).
Bungie Tripled Server Capacity For Halo 3
Bungie's Jonty Barnes, talking to GameSpot at the Tokyo Game Show, mentioned that Bungie had to triple its server capacity to handle the increased load from Halo 3. Not sure whether that meant matchmaking, or community features, or what; but from the latest podcast it seems that stat-tracking will be vastly expanded, and Bungie is aiming to keep player career stats more or less completely and indefinitely.
A Construct Isolated In The Pit
Rapture at The Hushed Casket has posted three videos from GameTrailers showing the Halo 3 multiplayer levels Construct, Isolation, and The Pit.
Can Halo 3 Sell Xbox 360s?
That's the question posed on the latest podcast at C|Net. With Nintendo's Wii and Microsoft's Xbox 360 vying for the spot of top dog among next generation consoles, Microsoft has to be counting on their flagship franchise, Halo 3, to provide that final push to original Xbox owners to pony up for a 360. Will it be enough? We'll know soon.
