Kim Talks Halo 3

Posted by David as Gadzooki News

Shane Kim, Microsoft’s Game Studios General Manager, has been talking to Next Generation about various things including Halo 3.

Next Generation: Let’s talk about Halo 3. What are we up to?

Shane Kim: I call it The Mythical Halo 3 – we haven’t announced any such game yet! Obviously the Halo franchise is very important to us. When you have Bill Gates being quoted fairly constantly, talking about a game, you know it’s important to the company. But his recent comments reflect the position accurately. Which is that, if there were a Halo 3 we would be careful about how we announce and introduce it.

It’s exactly the same way we talked about Halo 2, where people wanted it a year after Halo. That would not have accomplished anything.

In the interview he also mentions that Microsoft is not going to play a reactionary game against Sony, and has a business plan that they will execute. I think that is a very good way to push their way to the top spot. Maybe not this generation, but eventually.

Sony reveals PlayStation Move

I have to admit, my mind is officially blown. Sony finally revealed its new PlayStation 3 motion controller at GDC 2010 in San Francisco, and boy is it looking good.

Dubbed the Playstation Move, the advanced motion controls on this baby makes it supposedly more accurate than that other motion controller from that little-known console from [...]
