Democratic Congress member Ritchie Torres is introducing legislation in Congress to regulate digital video game ownership.
"A game that can be taken away the moment a company pulls the plug is not a purchase. It is a rental disguised as a sale."

Here's the first release of the Xbox 360 Peer Pressure softmod. Blog post will be out in a few weeks with all the technical details. Barring any critical bugs I'll be "hibernating" for the next 2 months to recoup my sanity from working on this project github.com/grimdoomer/Xbox36…

This looks like bait but I'll bite.
The community has without a doubt in my mind been a net benefit to Halo and has probably kept things going longer than they otherwise would have.
So much love and creativity and time has been poured into this franchise by online community.

I too have been working on Digsite behind the scenes for under a year now.
My job has been officially restoring Halo E3 2000s BSP and polishing it in the CE engine. It's around 80% of the way done, and I will be releasing it sometime later this year.

Well I can say it now so here goes:
After the previous Digsite team left, a few of us tried for a good year or so to get it back up and running... and we did! But due to today's events, it is done. Please have a look at some of the content I was working on

I'm too excited, so I'm jumping the gun a bit early here.
I'm announcing Halo 5: Reforged.
This is my love letter to the Halo Community, and probably one of the things I feel most proud of working on in recent years.
I'm bringing all of Halo 5 to PC, plus some more!
Stay tuned.

Did someone say... Firefight?
You can pre-configure waves and have the game spawn them in!
Still work to do to polish it, I also want to set up set spawn points and see if I can drop them in via the Spirit.

“I haven’t bought a physical game in X amount of years, I have no idea why people are mad at this”
I promise you the world does not revolve around you, just because you haven’t been supporting games physically that doesn’t mean the rest of us have been doing the same thing
