IndustryGamers returns with another installment of our multi-studio interviewing tour. Our last interview with Lionhead Studios looked at the intricacies of the RPG and how gamer choices reflected upon game and player visual and experiential outcomes.
Today though, IG speaks with Bungie’s Joseph Staten on the Master Chief character from the popular Halo series. While Bungie has gone to greener pastures with an all-new action adventure franchise, their work with Halo is considered by many in the industry to be some of the best design out there.
Bungie veteran and current CTO, Luis Villegas, has left the company after fourteen years and has joined Sony PlayStation as its new Head of Technology.
"I feel incredibly lucky because as part of my new role I get to still work closely with my Bungie family."
New role and more pay and still can work closely with Bungie
Bungie - "Join our development team to see the new updates arriving with Destiny 2: The Final Shape. Releasing on June 4, 2024."
How do composers make the iconic music tracks from games that we love? And just what makes them so memorable?
Twitter is blowing up right now
All games coming to PlayStation
Next Xbox will have steam
Next Xbox niche and only for “gamers who want it” (it’s a really powerful pc or a steam deck type portable, or both)
Cool, interesting Q&A. Seems like the idea of character formation for Master Chief, Cortana, etc all came later in the process.
It is indeed some of the best out there.
and im in b4 all the ps3 fanboys troll in stating its "Just another Generic shooter" It isnt.
After playing reach I wanted to play the story and understand it so I bought Halo 1 and I was completely impressed at the production value of that game.
Once I finished that one I got Halo 2 and it's twice as awesome as the first. I'm starting to see the hype and awesomeness of halo.
Can't wait to finish Halo 2 to finally play Halo 3 and finish the trilogy.
I already played ODST and REACH and all the games are worth the money. Too bad I didn't catch it sooner.
Great Game
