Re: questions about Halo's development

In Response To: questions about Halo's development (Longshot) : 1) when would halo have to be completed (is this what they mean be going : "gold") in order to start packaging copies and distributing them : to stores? I assume you mean "When would Halo have to be completed...in order to be a launch title?" I don't know what the drop-dead date is, but we're trying to give ourselves a lot of leeway. : 2) can we assume that the packaging for halo is complete or nearly complete : (i.e. boxes, manuals, etc.) and isnt a function of the game being : complete? The box design is pretty much done. The manual is less done, but getting there. They are tied to the development of the game inasmuch as there are still decisions to be made; we don't want to print a manual too early because inevitably it would turn out incorrect or incomplete. : 3) is microsoft responsible for shelf space and store relations, or is : bungie? They are. We just make the games now. : 4) how many copies do u think will be made? does anybody know bungie's sales : target? Lots and lots and lots. -Matt
