Cody Miller attended GameSoundCon this week, and reported back on Marty O’Donnell’s keynote about work for hire, and how audio professionals can make their situation better by working together. It sounds, from the writeup, like a fascinating talk! Chec…

IGN has information (and a gameplay video, and a walkthrough) about Warlord, the 6th and final Halo 2 Anniversary remake in the Master Chief collection. Looks fantastic, though it’s closer to Halo 2’s Warlock than it is to Halo’s Wizard. Thanks, Moorph…

It’s been hinted at before, but it’s nice to have it explicitly stated: recently 343’s Dan Ayoub told Gamespot that the terminals that will be included in Halo 2 Anniversary will hint at story content from Halo 5. Great way to get new content into a ga…
