PSA: Halo Legends 'Origins Part 1' available today only

by Ben Gilbert on Jan 2nd 2010 2:30PM

Today's the day, folks. The last weekend of a two-month long, mostly bi-weekly Halo Legends release on Xbox Live Marketplace. While you can find the "Making of" version of this week's episode next week, "Origins Part 1" will mark the last free episode of the soon-to-be-released series. And yes, that "Part 1" modifier certainly does indicate a cliffhanger ending -- particularly considering this episode includes information on the barely talked about Forerunners of the Halo franchise. And now, if you'll excuse us, we're off to peep this joint for ourselves.

I was going off of Harold Ryan's statements that part of the separation agreement involved Bungie being able to choose their publishing partners, in case 'the relationship changed'.

Based on more recent statements, Jones is involved. Which is good, seeing as no one's seen the man in years.

Well, that's contrary to what I was told. Maybe they can pick their partners for future projects? As far as I know, Microsoft has right of first refusal (RFR) on Bungie's upcoming big project and the chances they will turn it down are minuscule. So that pretty much guarantees this project will be published by MS.

Watched it. Really liked it. I forgot how big the halo universe can be. If they made a game about the Forerunners somewhat like KOTOR, now that would be sweet.

Also, Halo Waypoint is proving to be much cooler than I first thought.
