Re: Transcript and Commentary
Posted By: Landis MclainDate: 12/5/06 2:35 a.m.

In Response To: Transcript and Commentary (Narcogen)

A couple of things. First off, I generally agree with everything you've said in your commentary. However, there are a few points I'd like to make. For one, you say that when "asked about [the shield grenade's] origins, Frankie said it was owned by ONI." However I believe he said that the story about it's development was top secret and owned by ONI, or, in other words "We're not telling."

Also, you mention that "Bungie warned Halo fans expressly that the advertisement was not designed to accurately portray gameplay," but, as Frankie stated in the Q & A, "Not indicative of gameplay means, these images were not captured from the gameplay engine" and "Nothing in the trailer was placed there by the agency - that is to say, every object and action was put in there with Bungie's consent and usually assets ... which you have t assume we wouldn't do without good reason, riht?" I think this makes it fairly clear that the item is receiving more than just general consideration for inclusion in the game.

: I've put up a rough transcript of the events in the advertisement, as well as
: some preliminary commentary on what they might mean:
