Xbox.Ca deal off, Halo Wars machinima still on…

Posted by m3 On February - 6 - 2009

After the release of the ut3 vs halo dance video, we were contacted by the PR firm that handles the Xbox canada account asking us if we could possibly make a Halo Wars machinima before the release of the game.  I was delighted to talk with them. I let them know what all I needed and what was involved.  Long story short is that after a dozen email exchanges they were unable to gain permission from Bungie and MSoft for the characters and Epic for the engine.  If I were Microsoft I probably wouldn’t want people to see how awesome Halo looks in the unreal engine either.  The bright side is that I have decided to do it anyways :)  maybe :P

Hey all! Sorry things have been a little quiet here lately. I have been battling some health stuff lately that has all but zapped my energy. When I can however I have been doing some tests to see if I can make my next GoW movie in glorious 3DS max. I think I can I think I can I think I can. Here are a couple renders for you to chew on! Hope you guys are great!
