"Rumor has it"

"Milkman said:I couldn't tell whether that was a Peter Jackson joke or a Metal Gear Solid joke. Either way, I disagree."Considering we still know NOTHING about this new Peter Jackson/Halo project, I'll shelter my excitement for now."Well now we know something. Any form of entertaining action will be broken by horribly paced 20 minute long cutscenes."
"Vaxadrin said:Can't be a Peter Jackson joke because it would have to be a 5 hour cutscene to even sound slightly ludicrous."Milkman said:I couldn't tell whether that was a Peter Jackson joke or a Metal Gear Solid joke.

Our very reliable sources tell us that Payton has been hired by Microsoft to be the creative director on the upcoming, and still not dead, Peter Jackson Halo game.
The news, very reliable news, comes weeks after we broke the news that Gearbox Director of Technology Corrinne Yu had been hired by Microsoft Game Studios to be Principle Engine Architect for Microsoft's Halo Franchise Team.
Rumor had it at the time that Yu and her husband, Kenneth Scott were both joining Microsoft Game Studios. Scott is an art director at id Software.
Payton, assistant producer on Metal Gear Solid 4, has been credited with spearheading a more Western approach to controls for Metal Gear Solid 4, making the game far more approachable and much tighter than the previous installment. He also helped warm the MGS4 team up to more Western developed games like Gears of War as well.
We heard back from Microsoft and they hit us up with "Microsoft does not comment on rumors or speculation.” Which in Microsoft speak is almost tantamount to a confirmation.
Did you bother to read that?

"why are 80% of the trhreads here flamebait or insults towards people who own a different console/ haw haw ourZ iZ better than j00urZ"cause the nazi mods banned all the good users like CaseyWegner that used to make funny topics, now theres nothing to talk about and the forums are almost dead.
You can't blame Payton for wanting to high-tail it out from under Kojima's shadow. No sane man caps a game with a cutscene that's over an hour, so I would imagine that now the only voice Big K listens to is his own. Credit is due to Payton on making a case for the new camera, even if Western audiences have been shouting about it nonstop since Splinter Cell.
There's no point in speculating on the quality of the forthcoming title, but the talent is certainly there.
"metal gear halo, ninja Raiden vs a bunch of spartans instead of gekko lol"GOTY right here!
