Harry Gregson Williams on composing the soundtrack to Metal Gear Solid 2. It’s my favourite game of all time and the music plays a fundamental part of it. He was convinced to work on the game when a CD came in the post containing his film music. “Flattery gets you everywhere”

I’ve been super impressed by the folk over at @bungie.net. Their new title, Marathon and the art that has been coming out of it has been insane. Now we get a short film/trailer made in collab with Alberto Mielgo. m.youtube.com/watch?si=jW6...

In relation to the sad news about Polygon, they did a great a piece with the creators of Morrowind. “Is a console audience ready to read all these books? The answer: Fuck yeah, dude. They love the books! Who’s gonna read all these books on their TV? A lot of people.”

Silent Hill. If you can make them laugh, you can make them scared.
The main character is standing in front of a doghouse with red roof. He is commenting “probably a doghouse, though I’m not sure since there’s no dog around”. Behind him, a hairless rotten dog pounces. A body is underneath some newspaper; stained in crimson. The main character says “All this red stuff around here is blood. This guy’s not sleeping” The air is foggy. The lights in the building aren’t on. The character says “I have been waiting for my burger for an hour. I don’t think they are even open…” “Sketchbook cover. This picture… it’s me” the picture is scribbled in red crayon, a circle head and eyes looking in two different directions.

The making of Elder Scrolls Oblivion’s forests. Featuring Noah Berry. I love this segment, and is what I enjoy the most when I watch behind the scenes documentaries. The theory, the process and the passion. Full link: m.youtube.com/watch?v=zvm0...
