I like the idea that you are building your own engine built with XNA for Xbox 360. Hope everything goes well

Yes.

sadly yeah, which is kinda gay cause i waited almost a year for it to come out once i made a game for PC, it was kinda like a version of Valve's game "Portal." all i could do was test it using PC.

Yes.

"When we make the game for the 360", you won't need to be in the Creator's Club.

MS already said they we're going to remove the need for it sometime within in the next year or so, so we should be good. Not to mention, maybe we'll win the Dream Build Play competition? Then you can all get it straight from the Xbox Live Arcade!

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if you spent more time on writing that post than working on the shown content.

Update!
Took some HD shots of Contour.
- Yes, Halo will run in widescreen if you know what you're doing.

There are a bunch more here

Add a Draco and you've got yourself one awesome map.

No.
But, to tell you the truth, the Draco will make a certain appearance in the game to satisfy the nubes. It'll appear in the background of a cutscene docking with the Asis.

Heh, cool. You should add in some type of awesome vehicle, doesn't matter what it is.

FleetAdmiralBacon · Post by **FleetAdmiralBacon** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 9:43 am

The hoverbike is in there, but I was messing with shaders so it has a flowing water texture and most of it isn't visible.
it's also extremely oversized.

FAB, those are pretty sweet pics. Hope to see more updates.

OT: How do you get Halo to run in widescreen?

FleetAdmiralBacon · Post by **FleetAdmiralBacon** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 10:53 am

Never said this: Thanks for all the positive feedback, I've shown the team this thread.

looks good u should put in the 4 wheeler from halo3 and the hal2 demo that would be sweet, also will there be a whole new sp and mp or just mp?

We're making an entire game - no content will come from Halo and for the CE version we will try our best to replace all of the detail elements.

Of course there will be a campaign, other wise it wouldn't be much of a game. I'd like to get as close to the 2gb maximum file size as we can with maps (for the XNA, maximum PC>360 transfer size is 2gb)

We're working on the storyline, tweaking plot details, and mapping out the campaign.

I have, and it's a blood gulch for reference.
The game "engine" wasn't coded entirely by him, or him at all. Think of it as a "palette" people can download to get started on a possible engine.
