What he found particularly interesting were two items for MMO environmental and concept artists; what I find interesting are the console programmer and Xbox Live developer positions.

    Since last week’s announcement about Halo Wars, our forum has been rife with discussion about what this might mean for fans down the road – the usual cries of ‘sellout!’ and ‘doom, despair’ have been flying for days.

    Dropshock Episode 24 has been released – as usual, it’s lewd and crude. Minimal Halo content these days – but they’ve got a brand-new website, so there you go. 1:14 long, 34 mb. Thanks, Adam Russell.(Louis Wu 16:02:37 UTC)
