Subject: A Certain Affinity: Mapmakers to the Stars

because if seeing is believing,
then believe that we have lost our eyes

Somebody was very pleased with Shishka's striptease.

That's a pretty AWESOME interview. Nice and long. Can't wait to see what CA's next project is. Oh, and those maps are sounding great. HEH was my fav from Halo and I've been waiting and hoping or a remake ever since H2's release. Now for perhaps some Beta news...

If there's one thing I have learned in working with you, it's that there is always margin for error.

I would have to guess that the easter egg is the super jump and I believe if you look at the pic with the TV that has chief on the small ramp roof, that is where you jump down from.

nice.

Is there an easter egg in Hang 'Em High, like the caption says? Or is it in Tombstone? I don't ever remember hearing about an easter egg in the original Hang 'Em High...

I like to Rollick

Good interview, nice to know that they didn't go into remaking hang em high with the mindset of changing everything.

Shishka strips? He's pretty good, judging by that guy's expression.

Hey you saw my sig! :)
Their was a time when this was under a post. Simpler times; no Halo 3 Forum and no search. Simpler times. Happy about search though.

I was wondering where the other phone went. I am off to Austin.

In ages past the hand of time
Has hindered our migration,
But it cannot slow the will of faith
In times of confrontation.
Let all those worthy walk the path
Where we shall all soon meet.
For what once was lost, now is found
And our journey is complete.

Frank O'Connor is a 12-year veteran of the videogame magazine industry and has therefore never worked an honest day in his life.

Great read.

PILOTS (in unison):
Hoo-rah!

I can imagine the hate threads saying: they reversed the bases on Hang Em High, they changed my favorite weapon spawn, the map is broken, etc....

Crybabies!!!!

I will buy the maps, just as they are released, and play them everyday until the Beta arrives!

All things being said, I suppose I can't say this.

Great Interview. I can't wait for the new maps!! And I can't wait for the Beta.

BTW just as a side note to Bungie and Certain Affinity. If anyone from those companies is reading this.

There is this little game called Knights of the old republic III that needs to be made. I was thinking that giving Certain affinity a crack at it would be a great Idea. Seems like they have a good experienced group of Devs and some Bungie experience. And we all now that Bungie is the world's best.
Anyway, perhaps CA should contact Lucasarts??? I would love it if this game finally got made.

I don't care about the new Halo 2 maps! It's just a destraction.
Then why would you even reply to this? Constantly asking for the beta, or asking for a release date, is not going to make it get here any faster. There's no point in making these unnecessary off topic posts.

Excellent interview, always nice to have some behind-the-scenes insight. The new maps sound like they've had lots of attention to detail, can't wait for the 17th!

Very nice writeup. I devoured every word with an incomprehensible fervor. Unfortunately, that also means that I was unable to retain anything that I had read.

Looking forward to see what CA makes.
