    The Long Tail of Halo 3 Voice Acting

    A while back, Wired mag's Editor-in-Chief, The Long Tail author and LEGO lover Chris Anderson got sauced on wine with Bungie's in-house composer Marty O'Donnell, who promised the editor a Halo 3 voice cameo. And yesterday, it happened. Anderson saw a big chunk of the game, but is NDA'd so isn't able to dish. He blogs:

    Marty had me record about 30 lines, mostly playing a marine (that's me in the recording studio, above). I got to utter timeless phrases such as "Brutes can't smell through rock, can they?" and "Wonder if anyone knows we're down here..." They said I warmed up nicely, but I think they were just being polite. They were trying hard not to crack up as I screamed like a girl when I was being "possessed by the Flood".

    Anderson did scan his script over on his Long Tail site. It doesn't reveal much, but is kinda interesting. And below? That's a vid he took of O'Donnell talking about the game's piano score.
