Halo Xbox Online News

by Maarten Goldstein May 24, 2001 6:56pm CST tags: Bungie, Halo
According to this messageboard post on Bungie.org, it looks like Internet support in the Xbox version of Halo is questionable at this time. Microsoft doesn't have a clear network strategy yet which makes it hard for Bungie to code in support for whatever Microsoft might come up with in the future. Thanks Crusader.

Unfortunately it's not possible for us to code support for internet play without more info than we have now. So Xbox Halo won't magically work over the internet when MS gets their networking stuff up. I don't think a patch will happen either.
A separate product is a possibility, but as things stand right now there is no definite plan for such a product. The team gets to decide what they work on next, but they won't make that decision until Halo is done.

It is stressed that this this is only for the Xbox version of Halo, so any waiting by the PC and Mac players for their version of the game will be possible be paid off with Internet support.

Big Boned Halo Video

by Steve Gibson Mar 21, 2001 11:59pm CST tags: Bungie, Halo
Something for the latenighters with excessive bandwidth to try and get a hold of. A huge ass 180+ meg video including footage of Halo in action, several minutes of it even. You can grab it from the Bungie page or mirrors at 3DG, Frazone, and Blues. Couldnt get it myself but we all know you college students out there love to share the bandwidth for the greater good right? For those of you who are bandwidth impaired, Bungie did also release some screenshots recently.
