Looking back on an Age of Innocence
Ensemble’s Dave Pottinger talked to Shacknews about the closure of Ensemble Studios – and some information about the cancelled Halo MMO (there was a flurry of info about this project back in September). Sounds like they’re pretty unhappy about the closure – and the MMO project had gotten a lot further along than anyone thought! Thanks, vshields ash.(Louis Wu 17:16:49 UTC)

TTL: What the…
XerxdeeJ stopped in to complain about Mondays, and to point out new content at Tied the Leader. Wait… it’s Tuesday again? There’s a full writeup of the honorable profession of Wheelmanning, complementing the Tail-gunner article from last week. And OboeCrazy has put together an October Highlight Reel for the Gunslingers (you cannot see it in high quality when it’s embedded, so I’d suggest viewing this on YouTube after you read the writeup) – very, very funny stuff.(Louis Wu 17:14:56 UTC)

Halo 3: I Am the Master Chief
LostRock11 pointed out a rather bizarre, but pretty funny, video put together by Balloon Shop last year just after Halo 3 was released. It made me laugh!(Louis Wu 17:13:01 UTC)

The Halo Wars news is pouring in fast and furiously. IGN has a hands-on preview of the campaign, GameSpot has updated their hands-on article, D+PAD has an interview with Graeme Devine (four pages long, lots of info).

AH: New Xbox Experience Preview: Part 3 of 3
Hey guys, hope you had an excellent weekend. I personally had a good time with Saint’s Row 2, a mediocre one with Spider-Man: Friend or Foe and a non-existant one simming the franchise mode in Madden 07. But more that later. Right now, we’re taking our…

New Halo Wars Art Assets
A new batch of Halo Wars screenshots and a few cutscene stills were released this morning – we’ve posted them here, because it’s a good bet that the full-sized images (5120×2880 for the screenshots, 1920×1280 for the stills) won’t make it to the web on most sites – and almost EVERY other site will slap a watermark on each image. Enjoy the full-sized, watermark-free versions!(Louis Wu 17:56:39 UTC)

Left 4 Dead
The Zombie Apocalypse is here- are you ready?
In honor of tomorrow’s impending Left 4 Dead release, I thought I’d post a topic about Valve’s latest game, Left 4 Dead. Sporting a 4 player co-op mode, and a versus mode, Left 4 Dead is definitely targeted at those who love playing with friends.
For wallpapers, screenshots, and a couple videos from Left 4 Dead, click here.
I personally was curious who else is getting this game. I’ll be picking up my copy from GameStop tomorrow. If you haven’t had a chance to play the demo, do. It’s on the XBL Marketplace right now and I think this may be the best zombie game I’ve ever played.
I found quite a bit of information on the game from the official Left 4 Dead website, and Left4Dead 411, a L4D fansite.
