In Response To: Re: Finally Someone With Reason (Matt) : For what it's worth, I didn't suggest anyone was lying. I suggested that the : aforementioned MS PR guy could have answered the question in a way that : didn't freak people out the way it did. Part of being able to do that is : knowing clearly where the project stands and thinking about what you will : say if someone asks about it. I'm not sure he did. : On the other hand, one possibility I don't think anyone has considered is the : "white lie" theory. There are times when you know more than you : want to say at the moment. You don't tell your girlfriend "I'm going : out to buy an engagement ring so I can surprise you later tonight with a : marriage proposal." You tell her you're going out for a pack of : cigarettes. You know what I mean? I don't know that Chris DiCesar was just : being cagey to avoid leaking any details to the press. It's just an idea : that occurred to me. I was going to ask him about it yesterday, because he : was supposed to be at this meeting I went to with Alex and Hambone and a : few Microsoft people to discuss PC/Mac Halo. Something came up and he : couldn't make it. Alas. : Those who want "tangible proof" that Microsoft is serious about : this don't have much longer to wait. : -Matt : eager to ditch this particular albatross Very nice post. It is not that I doubt Bungie, it is just if MS was so serious, like you state, then you would think they would be a bit more excited about it and that PR guy just didn't. Which probably got a lot of people thinking. And I will certainly hold you to that "Those who want "tangible proof" that Microsoft is serious about this don't have much longer to wait." At least, your post was more formal than the other fanboy who posted earlier, who seemed to just want to braw. -XBOX, who owns Halo, but wants some serious online multiplayer action.
