Just got my issue last night (not sure of the number, but it has a Halo Wars cover story). HC is only covered in a side blurb in the HW article, and details are sparse so far, but there are a few little tidbits:

 

-Halo Chronicles is, in fact, the name of the 'project' Peter Jackson is working on.

-It will be 'episodic' in nature. Whether this simply means that each level of the game will have its' own little 'plot', or whether it will pull a Sam and Max on us remains to be seen.

-It will be a unique blend of cinema and gaming, though what this means remains clouded.

-Jackson hinted that it would be a prequel, meaning that we likely won't find out just yet exactly what happens to the Chief on that planet.

 

Personally, I'd LOVE to have a new episode of Halo every month or two .

 

 

Also, Bungie are working on something related to the Halo-verse that is not Halo Wars or Chronicles. That's probably where we'll find out what happens to Chiefy-weefy.


MARATHON! MARATHON! MARATHON!

hum well we knew those things since E3 I don't know which but the one with PJ.... that's not a cover story... they just pulled out old notes out of their desk during a summe cleaning probably.... that's not news... it's history lol

Read the OP?  It's not a cover story.  Halow Wars was the cover story, while Chronicles got a blurb on the side.  And no, they spoke to PJ. 



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Lol. The Xbox 360 fanbase on these forums has been eroded down to the core kitchen.

You'll have to wait a while for more responses. I agree that Halo 3's characters were quite blocky, but the lighting remains the best seen so far in a console game.

i disagree i think uncharted was. ahhhh i love those sunsets

I have spent a fair bit of time with Uncharted, and its very graphically pleasing.

But lighting better than Halo 3?

No.

Uncharted is my favourite game on the PS3 right now (until LBP comes out ), and it looks fantastic, but I'd still have to go with Halo.

I'm really interested. I haven't seen anything on what the gameplay is supposed to be though. Is there any information on that yet?

^^Nada. I'd expect the lid to be blown off at E3, though.

I hope Halo Chronicles will be the X360s answer to MGS4 (expect for the stealth, I hate sneak games) - epic and movie-like.
