Now that Bungie have handed over the Halo reigns to 343 Industries, it was up to them to make a mark on Halo.

Well i’m slightly late to the party with this review, but fuck it, you may not be interested in this game. And why should you be?

While I was there I also held an interview with CEO of JAW, Stewart Gilray, for a chat about the game, the future for the Oddworld series and how they go about developing a game and transforming it to HD. But more about that later. (more…)
