The games are developed by Bungie and published by Microsoft. EA has nothing to do with em. And Bungie/MS didn't put their foot down on that Halo 2D platformer from a while back or the Red & Blue machinimas so I don't think they're hardasses about copyright-infringement.

Woops, why did I think EA had anything to do with Halo?:o I knew it was Microsoft.:sweat:

Red Vs Blue machinima? How is that copyright infringement? They use Halo. It isn't like they did what they did in another game that had nothing to do with Halo. Plus it was free. Anyway, I'm pretty sure Microsoft would care, but I guess they aren't aware of it or don't consider it a big threat.

Just the fact that there's Quake 2 right next door and just as free, and it's that much better in the above areas, makes me think he's doing it on purpose for torturous novelty of it. There was thing about graphics downgrade remakes last year wasn't there? I think he's getting in on that. Why, I have no idea.

I'm sure it's this, and there is something weirdly compelling about seeing a kind of 20-poly representation of the master chief... a bit like pixel art ... but it's also a massive waste of time.

All gaming is a massive waste of time. Thanks for the insight!

Not true: you can use games to (http://www.bit-tech.net/news/gaming/2009/03/30/studies-show-fps-games-improves-vision/1) improve your vision!

Well, ok: some games.

More or less a waste of time than this post?

Halo on the Q1 engine? How about (http://www.moddb.com/mods/medal-of-honor-airborne) Medal of Honour: Airborne remade on the Wolf3D engine!

That's all fine and dandy, but does it let you Grenade/Rocket jump?
