Gates leaks 'Halo 3' release date ... maybe
Seattle PI | at | by Mike
For all the fanfare about its new video-game console, Microsoft was decidedly quiet last week about one of the biggest questions in the industry: the potential timing of a third installment in its blockbuster "Halo" video-game franchise.
Well, everyone except Bill Gates was quiet about it.
In a cover story published last week in Time magazine, the Microsoft chief software architect was quoted as saying that the company would have "Halo 3" ready by the time Sony releases its PlayStation 3 next year.
"It's perfect," Gates was quoted as saying. "The day Sony launches, and they walk right into Halo 3."
