Halo GONE GOLD

by Maarten Goldstein Oct 24, 2001 5:29pm CST tags: Bungie, Halo, Gone Gold
Kalo let us know about this forum post on the Bungie.org forums by Bungie's Matt Soell announcing that their Xbox launch title Halo has gone gold.

All of us worked very hard to get to this point and we are collectively very proud of what we have done.
Over the last few years Halo has attracted a lot of attention, and it's safe to say Halo will be the first Bungie game for a huge number of people. But it's not a fluke or a freak accident or a case of being in the right place at the right time. It's the latest chapter in the ongoing story of Bungie, which started ten years ago and is still being written. Like all our stories, it's full of dips and twists and weirdness. Sincere thanks to those of you who keep reading. :-)

Of course, as we all know, Halo started out as a PC/Mac title but after Bungie was bought by Microsoft it became an Xbox title. There could still be a PC version, though nothing is known about that at this point.
