Should Bungie Make a Halo 4? In the past Bungie has mentioned that Halo 3 would complete the current story arc and be the final game in the Halo trilogy. But things can change. Considering Halo 3s Legendary ending, the huge sums of money that the Halo games have made, and the series huge importance to the Xbox platform, is Halo 4 really out of the question?

Halo 4: The Way it Should Be[ 3 Comments ] 14:58 PST | mrtitan | Print News | Category: GeneralWe don't even know who is making Halo 4 yet (is it Bungie, Gearbox, or an MS Studio?), heck we don't even know if one will ever be made. But that doesn't stop IGN from putting up an article about what they want Halo 4's Storyline, Gameplay, and Online Multiplayer to be like. Some ideas are good, some ideas are pretty bad, but nevertheless it's a pretty decent read, especially for those of you who can't wait to find out what direction MS will take next with the Halo Universe.

Liek OMG, What Am I Going To Do Now This Weekend?[ 3 Comments ] 18:23 PST | mrtitan | Print News | Category: Halo: 3Due to the late release of the September Matchmaking update, there will be no Double XP Weekend Playlists in Halo 3 for the next couple of weekends. Ranked BTB will still remain a Double XP playlist until it is retired later this month with the next Matchmaking Update, but there will be no special Double XP Playlist (ie: Grifball, Three Balls, etc) for at least this weekend and next weekend. To find out more, go read the Bungie news post here.
Well now, ShackNews has received confirmation from Microsoft that this is indeed true. Ensemble employees not associated with Halo Wars have been laid off, and those working on Halo Wars have been offered incentives to stay on until it's done. Microsoft noted, however, that the Ensemble leadership will form a new studio that will support Halo Wars and develop future projects.
The Rumor states that Peter Jackson's Halo game will be revealed at this year's Tokyo Game Show and that it will be grittier than previous Halo games and star a female Spartan. Thanks HBO.

Impressions and Analysis of Assembly[ 2 Comments ] 14:00 PST | mrtitan | Print News | Category: Halo: 3Ascendant Justice has put up a very nice impressions/analysis article on Halo 3's upcoming DLC map, Assembly. The write-up contains a lot of great pictures and insight on the new map, including a hand-drawn overhead map (which is pictured below). If you are at all interested in Assembly (Ascendant Justice seemed really impressed by it), you might want to give this a read. Thanks HBO for pointing this out.
Halo Wars Monthly Update[ Comment ] 18:07 PST | mrtitan | Print News | Category: Halo WarsThe latest Halo Wars Monthly Update is now up. In the update Ensemble Studios discusses milestones, upcoming changes to the site, the recent Leipzig games convention, and more. Also, at the bottom of the update, there appears to be a scrambled image/transmission....Could this be the start of another ARG?
Also, Halo Wars Lead Designer, Dave Pottinger, has put up a separate developer diary in which he discusses the implementation of Spartans in a strategy game.
Bungie Weekly Update 8/29/2008[ 4 Comments ] 16:42 PST | mrtitan | Print News | Category: GeneralIn the latest Bungie Weekly Update, Luke Smith discusses Bungie's PAX schedule and reveals Assembly, a new multiplayer map, previously known as Purple Reign, that will be playable at PAX. It is not yet known when the map will be released or how much it will cost.
Usually a hiring by Bungie or another Halo-related developer isn't really newsworthy, but considering all the recent Gearbox-Halo 4 rumors, this piece of news could possibly add fuel to that rumor or discredit it depending on which way you look at it.
