Another Interview With Ferrex
GameSpy's prelaunch coverage continues with an interview with Tyson "Ferrex" Green about level design and why Halo 2 won't include repetetive levels like Halo 1 did.
Halo 2 News Summaries
The news items are flying fast and furiously in the last few days before Halo 2's launch, so in order to keep up we'll be posting news summary items where necessary. These items were pointed out at various other gaming sites, including HBO, Sector 7, Halo Planet, GameSpy and IGN. This weekend's summary so far:
Bungie.net Stats Available Via RSS
It looks like one of the features I personally had hoped to see when Bungie.net became integrated with XBL is coming to fruition: RSS feeds for individual stats. Right now an XML button for an RSS feed of "recent games played" is visible on the Stats page of Bungie.net users that have linked their gamertags. It looks like the button only appears on your own Stats page, so to get the feeds for other players you'll have to ask them. As I haven't been able to play any games yet, I don't know what kind of information is in the feed, but still, the idea is pretty sweet.
Frankie Posts Final Halo 2 Update
TeamXbox is the proud home of the honest-to-gosh last Weekly Bungie Update for Halo 2 by Frankie, and among the topics covered is the Stats page at Bungie.net that will be open once people get their mitts on the game and plug into XBL; right now it's showing placeholder stats. If it's showing anything at all; Bungie.net may be up and down still for awhile, and at the moment it seems to be down, taking the final Mister Chief art with it.
Beekeepers Get LE Halo 2 Early
Some have reported that select few attendees at the I Love Bees "training" events have been receiving special items. Some received commemorative DVDs, others got Limited Edition copies of Halo 2 before anybody else. Lucky buggers.
XLNC Still Making Excellent HUDless Shots
[image:8567 left hspace=5 vspace=5 border=0] XLNC has put together another collection of excellent HUDless screenshots from PC Halo, proving that even with less than a week to go before the release of the sequel, fans are still getting enjoyment from the first installment. We've created a third gallery for XLNC's screenshots especially for this collection, and here it is: XLNC Series Three.
Let The Clan Linkage Begin
For those of you who administrate a 7th Column Group at Bungie.net, you'll notice a new set of links there now that allow you to link up to seven (appropriate number, no?) different clans to your Group. It can be a clan that includes your members, or an allied clan, or even a rival clan. Links to those clans' statistics pages will appear on your Group's pages.
Stats Coming Soon... Like Your Mom
Bungie.net is back up, but Halo 2 stats are, understandably, not yet available. Here's what Bungie.net is displaying right now on the Stats page:
Halo 2 Xbox Live game statistics are not currently available to you or your mom. We hope to have them available soon.
We hope your mom is available soon, too.
Seropian: Stubbs A Sympathetic Antihero
b>John "JCal" Callaham of HomeLAN Fed has done an interview with Wideload Games founder Alexander "The Man" Seropian about Stubbs the Zombie in "Rebel Without a Pulse". Someone finally asked one of the minds behind Bungie one of the age-old burning questions: Why zombies?
