The smiling ex-Creative Director is Jordan. He wrote ilovebees (among dozens of other really kick ass things) and he is still one of the studio's best friends.

Oh...wow...really?
Um...gosh I kinda feel like a jerk now....
My bad. I mean, I must have really misread him. The vibe I got from you guys in the vidoc is that you wanted real freedom. I felt like that guy was smiling at the fact that you all needed Microsoft's help to make Halo possible...like one of those greedy corporate businessmen that steals good ideas because he knows the little guy with the ideas couldn't afford to make the ideas part of reality.
Um...but wow...I feel really dumb now. I mean, you guys were with them for a good decade so I mean yal know better than anyone how they are. And I agree with alot of the others on this site. Without Microsoft, Halo might have never happened.
I just got a bad vibe from him. I could see he appreciated the ideas you guys had, but during the whole "selling your souls to the devil" thing, when he smiled, I was just tipped off a bit. I saw him as "the man" you guys wanted to stick "it" to.
By the way, the vidoc was very well made. I was glued to the screen throughout, and the backstory behind your company was suprising and interesting.
I'm gonna go edit my Op now...
