Hobbit genius Peter Jackson has, sadly, fallen under Sauron’s spell and become a Shadow Wraith. In real life, that translates to Jackson teaming up with Microsoft to create interactive content for Microsoft’s Xbox 360. In truth, Jackson getting into games can only be a good thing.
He has set up a gaming division called Wingnut Interactive and is working on two series based around the Halo game universe: one alongside Bungie Studios for the Xbox 360 and the other, a Wingnut-original for the Xbox Live users, which is promising a “new level of interactivity”. Jackson said:
“My vision, together with Microsoft Game Studios, is to push the boundaries of game development and the future of interactive entertainment. From a movie-maker's point of view, it is clear to me that the Xbox 360 platform is the stage where storytellers can work their craft in the same way they do today with movies and books but taking it further with interactivity.”
Jackson is already producing the upcoming Halo movie, due out in 2008, so don't expect too much before then. –Martin Lynch
