Non facete nobis calcitrare vestrvm perinaevm.

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.

Bungie recently retweeted this. The site, Critical Path, is full of short clips of video games designers talking about the "art, philosophy, politics, and psychology of video games". Joseph Staton (director of cinematics for Halo 1, 2, and 3) has a few intersting clips on the site too. You should definitely check it out, I've just been clicking random clips and none of them have been anything less than excellent.

That's pretty cool. Are these for people who are interested in making games or are they just disccsions?

Click on "About" on the top right of the site. Apparently they're going to make a documentary film about the state of the video game medium.

I came for Halo, but I heard the Tru7h, fought thru Carnage, and stayed for Bungie.

Sweet, thanks! I am sure to enjoy this.

Clearly it was a stab at poor moderation once locking a thread for no reason but the other asshats in the forum said because it was a 'get.' So I was making a political point as well as a satirical one in the criticism of both the moderator in question and the users in their obsessive need to seem more clever than they really are.

... Yep. It's too complicated a back story to not be true.

I think I read something like this in the Mythic Topics of Interest thread in the mythic group.

Beware of a Long Design Doc - Todd Howard
This concept applies to a lot more than just video games. I've wasted a lot of time pre-drafting a story or sketching out something for a video that just plain doesn't work. While planning out your project is almost a necessity, trial and error with the medium you're working with is a lot of the time more effective.

What Emotions do You Value - Joseph Staten
I think it's amazing how playing a video game gives you a completely different immersion than reading a book or watching a movie. Playing Amnesia alone gives me chills that a scary movie or book has never accomplished before. Reading a Tom Clancy book doesn't give me the same adrenaline rush like when I'm playing a FPS where it's my own skill that decides if I can line up the scope with my opponent's head or not.

I love Joe Staten. The guy really knows what makes a good game- a balance of emotion and fun. Those values are really what separate Bungie from the rest.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Nice. Joseph Staten is an incredible individual. I'll be watching these after I get back from a wedding later today.
