Audio Interview with Matt Soell at MacObserver
Bryan Chaffin, Editor-in-Chief of The Mac Observer, wrote to let us know that they've put up an audio interview with Matt Soell, recorded from the show floor at E3. It weighs in at a bit over 2 megs, and contains 15 minutes of insights into the development of Oni and Halo, and life at Microsoft. Here's a snippet, where Matt talks about story development in Halo:
A lot of the storyline has remained the same, it's just the game's depth - there's more to it now than there was.

It's a nice view of how a Bungie employee sees Bungie... check it out. (Louis Wu 16:25:22 UTC)
