Re: Halo 2 Uses Havok 2 Physics Engine

In Response To: Halo 2 Uses Havok 2 Physics Engine (Nick)

: So the other day while on my ninja mission to Bungie I rummaged through their
: source code only to discover they're using the Havok 2 physics engine for
: Halo 2! No more in-house physics from Bungie; however it's still a good
: thing for us because Havok 2 kicks ass.

: Yea ok, I didn't really go on a ninja mission to Bungie and get to look
: through their source code. Hey, I can dream, can't I? But they are using
: the Havok 2 physics engine it seems, or so this document says. And I
: quote: "Havok 2.0 was launched at the Game Developers Conference of
: 2003 and is currently being used in a number of top game titles, including
: Half Life 2, Deus X II and Halo 2 ."

: I searched the news and the forum (current and archived) for a mix of the
: terms "Halo 2 Havok" and found a nice mix of discussion about
: the HAVOK tactical nuke in the books - nothing on the Havok Engine. If
: it's old news, sue me and put it on my bill.

: Go Bungie! Havok's engine kicks ass.

: -Nick

Wow. That's news to me. Although... it does not say Halo 2 here: http://www.havok.com/clients/titles.php

It seems odd that they wouldn't add it... they've added Starsky and Hutch - I find it hard to believe they could forget adding Halo 2.

The Havok engine is pretty kickass but I thought Halo 2 was coded by Bungie. Infact for the past 10 minutes I've been looking all over Havok.com for any othe mention of Halo 2 and I can't find anything. That's interesting though, I wonder what it is being used for.
