All that glitters: An interview with Bungie's senior graphics engineer.

It's a great read, concerning the state and future of gaming graphics and dynamism.

It's replete with minor tech speak, so be warned if your knowledge of the lingo is limited.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

That sounds confusing

Ready are you? What know you of ready? For eight hundred years have I trained Jedi. My own council will I keep on who is to be trained. A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind. This one a long time have I watched. All his life has he looked away... to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was. Hmm? What he was doing. Hmph. Adventure. Heh. Excitement. Heh. A Jedi craves not these things. You are reckless.” -Yoda

Cool it's going to be multi-platform!

If someone ever wondered why I love, and follow Bungie. It is because of all the talented individuals like Hao Chen, that make up Bungie.

When I read something like this, I'm like Johnny 5... "More input".

How I would love to spend a week at the Bungie Studio. Not necessarily to get a chance to peek at their new product, but to have a chance to observe, interact, and understand how Bungie orchestrates all their talent to create the symphony that are Bungie's games.... A man can only dream....
