It appears that Oni is indeed approaching reality. In this week's Oni Update at Oni Central, (pointed out to us by Louis Wu of bungie.org) Bungie's own Matt Soell confirmed that beta testing of the Macintosh version is underway, and that the PC version has reached final candidate.

Another week passes and Oni looms ever closer. There's not much to say at this point because the team is speeding toward that light at the end of the tunnel, and thus too busy to chat with me. So this will be brief, but brevity at this point is good. There's not much left to do. :-)
