halo-movie posts

When Peter Jackson, the writer-director of The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy, says in a new interview that he's enjoying playing games like Modern Warfare 2 "more than I am enjoying films at the moment" you know that he's a serious gamer. In a new interview with Aint It Cool News, Jackson says games, "are using a lot of the film techniques now, especially the cinematic areas or those little movie things. "

Of course, Jackson was supposed to produce a Halo movie as well as some kind of Halo game but both projects fell apart. He's currently working on two gaming projects that are connected to movies. One is a Tintin game that was announced by Ubisoft last summer and the other is a Hobbit game based on the upcoming prequel to the Lord of the Rings. He also says, "I think some of the ideas I've got I'd rather do them as a stand alone game, because that world is getting more and more interesting. "
