Halo Producer Quits

1
With all the positive press Halo was getting something was bound to happen. It looks like the producer/creative director has quit the project. Check out this post made on the Bungie messageboard:

It is with some sadness that I write to tell you that Friday, October 22, will be my last day working for Bungie. I have received an opportunity to finish my schooling at the University of North Carolina, where I will be allowed to write an honors thesis and (assuming it’s impressive enough ;), graduate with high honors. In the coming week, I’ll be tying up some loose ends, cleaning up, and saying goodbye.

When I rejoin the forums this weekend or next Monday, it will be as a fan - just like you. I am no longer Producer or Creative Developer and am no longer a representative of Bungie Software. This is important to note if you continue writing to me.

I brought this over from the earlier post: GameSpot UK has a new preview of Halo from Bungie which seems to be really good at getting people all excited even though it's a ways away from release. Just check out these screenshots and you'll see: [shot1] [shot2] [shot3] [shot4] and the CGW shots: [shot1] [shot2] [shot3]. GSUK's preview has a few new shots of their own.

Steve Gibson is the cofounder of Shacknews.com. Originally known as sCary's Quakeholio back in 1996, Steve is now President of Gearbox Publishing after selling Shacknews to GameFly in 2009.
