Activision has issued a DMCA takedown notice to the group of developers who were trying to make several old Call of Duty games playable in the web browser
This was Microsoft’s confidential international Halo research from October 2000. Only Jaime and I went to the presentation.
The first conclusion they came to was that we shouldn’t call it Halo.
And that point, I checked out and never listened to a word they said again.

Thank you.
To the Halo community.
Thank you for your relentless passion, feedback, and support. It was a pleasure and a privilege to represent you over the last 11 years.
Whether it was meeting you in-person at events, troubleshooting issues with you online, talking to you on broadcasts, checking out your Forge creations, or sharing your constructive criticism to push for change - I truly loved it.
Your voices have helped shape the best aspects of our games. Without each of you, Halo would not be the same.
To my teammates.
Thank you for always hearing me out and letting me push for more. Whether I was asking your team to make a pivot or fix one more bug before a release, you all trusted that it would be the right call. Collaborating with so many bright people across nearly every discipline was such a unique and rewarding part of this role.
It was also an honor to have your support while leading the Gameplay Team for the last two years of Halo Infinite. I was humbled - but not the least bit surprised - that so many of you rallied to ship impactful features and community-requested updates, which ultimately brought the game to a great place for our players.
Your talent and dedication never ceased to amaze, and it pushed me to do better every day. I will always be grateful for your partnership, mentorship, and friendship.
Although I’ll be moving on to different work, I’m excited for the future of Halo and I can’t wait to experience its next steps alongside all of you.
Thank you for everything.
For the Give Meshy a 3D Makeover campaign - I gave meshy a new angry look with a super-saiyan-esque charge-up aura, since I figured that it would be angry that we are altering his image. I used the image reference and image to 3d tools @MeshyAI#meshycreator
Activision’s President statement on the next Halo:
“For Halo, our goal is clear: make the greatest Halo game ever, worthy of its universe and legacy, while staying true to what made players love it in the first place. It is a bold ambition, one that this franchise deserves. We have already begun assembling a purpose-built team, unique in capability and talent, ready and excited to deliver this next chapter with the community.”
My main highlight in an otherwise awful year was visiting 🇺🇸 for the first time. I spent four weeks across four states and had an amazing time.
If I can fit it into my schedule I’ll try to visit again this year
Yes, Julian Brown developed Plastoline, a microwave pyrolysis system that converts plastic waste into fuel like gasoline.
