The mantle of responsibility, as it were, brought many pressures to the team as we get the best oral record to date of the developmental challenges that was making the Halo games.
This week we catch up with the latest Halo Community Update with a few wrap-up items from E3 and looking at what’s coming up with Halo at the Rooster Teeth Expo. We also tell the story of how Dust Storm came home with a nice piece of Halo Gear after his E3 attendance.
Every year, 343 has blessed me with a pass to E3 and attend one of the biggest gaming conventions in the states. Every time around E3, announces are made, franchises and new games are added to Xbox/Windows 10 exclusives and of course the rest of our Halo family who attends. Major kudos to Bravo for pulling the strings to get tickets within a week of the expo starting. At E3, we learned some new things about the upcoming Halo Wars 2 DLC and were even fortunate enough to get a great interview with Executive Producer of Halo Wars 2, Barry Feather talking about the new Awakening the Nightmare trailer for upcoming DLC.
