Saludos oyent@s! Volvemos en un nuevo destello entre temporadas (porque no podemos estar quietos) en el que contamos, a modo de regalo navideño, con un grandísimo compositor y mejor persona. Para este episodio aterriza en los micrófonos de Píxel Sonoro Curtis Schweitzer. Curtis ha sido autor, junto a Joel Corelitz y Gareth Coker, de muchos de los tracks de la banda sonora del nuevo Halo Infinite. Hablamos de música de Halo, de composición para Triple A, de armonía, de escalas... De muchas cosas! Esperamos que podáis apreciar lo que supone un testimonio como este, efectuado de una forma tan humilde y bien expuesta. Desde luego nosotros no cabemos en nosotros mismos. De corazón esperamos que os guste.

On today's IGN The Fix: Games, A number of Halo Infinite players have reported coming across a save-wiping glitch in the game, affecting both single-player and multiplayer gameplay. As reported by players on resetEra and Halo Waypoint (and spotted by VG247), Halo Infinite appears to contain a bug that is causing players to load into the game from a third-person perspective before breaking their save files completely. The issue itself is reportedly affecting both Xbox and PC payers and seems to be caused by a login-related bug. resetEra user 99humanity reports that after launching the game they would load into the campaign in third-person mode with Master Chief clipping through the floor. When attempting to head back to the menu and relaunch their progress, the user notes that their save file would fail to load and display as if they'd completed 0% of the campaign. Grunts get some quirky lore and personalities in Halo Infinite and we have a montage of some of our favorites. Nintendo is hosting a new Indie World Showcase happening tomorrow Dec 15th at 9:00 am PT / 12:00pm ET. Narz has all that in your Daily Fix!

This episode we break down a crazy and incredible week of Halo related news after the Xbox + Bethesda Showcase, along with the new Halo Waypoint information as well as other tidbits released in their Halo Infinite blogpost. Thank you for listening!
On today's IGN The Fix: Games, Demon Slayer - Kimetsu no Yaiba - The Hinokami Chronicles, a video game adaptation of the popular anime series, is officially heading west. Published by Sega, Demon Slayer - Kimetsu no Yaiba - The Hinokami Chronicles is an arena fighter that roughly traces events from both the series and the movie. The game stars Tanjiro, a Demon Slayer who fights to avenge his parents and save his sister, who has been turned into a demon. Halo Infinite's first multiplayer season will reportedly be themed around the "Heroes of Reach". The news was revealed in this month's Inside Infinite blog over on the Halo Waypoint website. Halo Infinite Head of Creative Joseph Staten centred the idea that as well as Master Chief, 343 wants you, the player, to feel "at the very heart of the Halo universe". Far Cry 5's level editor is pretty robust, so robust in fact that a YouTuber by the name of Krollywood straight-up remade GoldenEye in Ubisoft's first-person shooter. After a painstaking two and a half years recreating all 18 levels of GoldenEye on the PS4 version of Far Cry 5, the maps have been pulled offline after a copyright claim, seemingly stemming from Bond license owner MGM. Seth's got all that in your Daily Fix!

It feels like just yesterday that the world was dissecting the Halo Infinite trailer that was on display at the XGS, I took it at face value and assumed that some of the visuals would be cleaned up before release assuming that the build on display was far from finished. The art style along with the combat looked interesting and it looked like Halo Infinite was going back to basics with this one, while adding some modern elements such as open world and traversal. Unfortunately, this week, Microsoft had a day of bittersweet messaging with a post on Halo Waypoint informing gamers of the delay of the highly anticipated return of Master Chief. It wasn’t all bad news as they also provided a post on the Xbox Wire to give gamers some sugar to help make the medicine go down easier with a tighter release window for the Xbox Series X. What does this mean for Xbox, PlayStation and the rest of the launch season. This is the VDGMS podcast.

When you find yourself in a universe (or franchise) that's constantly expanding, filled with horrifying zombie aliens, a religious war, and ancient alien technology (and even more ancient-er aliens)... it's time to sit back, read a million books, and learn about the lore, universe, and fandom of Halo! ...And we couldn't be in better hands as Krysta of [Halo: Podcast Evolved](https://www.halopodcastevolved.com/) guides us through the vast lore that is in store! ## Episode Outline ### Fandom Facts **History and Origins:** > Halo is a military science fiction first-person shooter video game franchise created by Bungie and now managed and developed by 343 Industries, a subsidiary of Microsoft Studios. The series centers on an interstellar war between humanity and an alliance of aliens known as the Covenant. The Covenant, led by their religious leaders called the Prophets, worship an ancient civilization known as the Forerunners, who perished in combat with the parasitic Flood. The central focus of the franchise builds off the experiences of Master Chief John-117, one of a group of supersoldiers codenamed Spartans, and his artificial intelligence (AI) companion, Cortana. Other characters, such as Noble Six from Halo: Reach, are also introduced in the series. The term "Halo" refers to the Halo Array: a group of immense, habitable, ring-shaped superweapons that were created by the Forerunners to destroy the Flood. They are similar to the Orbitals in Iain M. Banks' Culture novels, and to a lesser degree to author Larry Niven's Ringworld concept. > > — [Wikipedia - Halo (franchise)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo_(franchise)) The game franchise has been running since 2001, and in that time over 65 million copies of the 13 games have been sold, grossing almost $3.4 billion (not counting the books, comics, live action films and miniseries, and anime). **Search Data:** By search data, [interest in the Halo franchise has been on a slow decline](https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=%2Fm%2F04h6hv,%2Fm%2F0128442n,%2Fm%2F026wy8d). Comparing to other first-person shooters, it's possible that this is in part due to more competition. Interest in the game mostly spikes around the release of new games. The top countries for Halo, by search volume, are as follows: Mexico, Columbia, United States, Australia, Canada, Guatemala, New Zealand, Panama, Puerto Rico, United Kingdom. **Fan Demographics:** This week, we have an assortment of data from different sources. The most comprehensive we found was this survey from [r/halo](https://www.reddit.com/r/halo/comments/1wwgas/halo_a_demographic_survey/) with over 1300 results: - _Gender_: Mostly male (96.2%; female 3.8%) - _Age_: Mostly 18-24 (61.8%); 15-17 (22%); 25-34 (14%) - _Employment_: Mostly students (51%); Employed full-time (22.1%); Employed part-time (13.7%) - _Ethnicity_: Mostly white / caucasian (79%); Spanish / Hispanic / Latino (6.7%); Asian (4.6%) - _Marital Status_: Mostly single, never married (86.7%); Living with partner (6.2%); Married (5.2%) Regarding age data, there is this thread from the [Halo Waypoint forums](https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/90a6869bcf944c54a17102ac9e31da1a/topics/average-age-of-halo-players/395d83dd-0491-4ea4-867c-ae4966e637d0/posts) (number of participants is not stated): - 1% - Child (5-8) - 3% - Young Teen (9-13) - 41% - Teenager (14-19) - 41% - Young Adult (20-29) - 13% - Adult (30-64) - 1% - Senior (65+) And a different source, [T3CHNOCIDE's Demographic Survey Results](http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:T3CHNOCIDE/Demographic_Survey_Results) (over 250 respondents), which seems to corroborate age and gender data: - _Age_: Mostly 14-17 (50%); 18-21 (25%); 22-30 (12.5%) - _Gender_: Mostly male (90%); other / no answer (7.5%); female (2.5%) **Fanac Fast Facts:** - Archive Of Our Own has [over 600 works related to Halo](https://archiveofourown.org/tags/Halo%20(Vide

We talked about it last week, the new Farcry 5 trailer that got dropped. This week, we discuss the online petition going around to stop it from coming out. Also, Marvel vs. Capcom leaked character list for new sequel, fake Smash Bros screens make the rounds on the web, Hori drops photos of new Nintendo Switch headset setup, Scorpio possible August release. And in a new Halo Waypoint video, it seems Microsoft never liked the name Halo and other juicy Master Chief trivia.

Two straight years of podcasting has brought us here to Episode 104 and my guest David Ellis from 343 Industries. Of course, it would have been nice if I got that introduction right on the actual recording but I'll let you listen to see how I deal with that less-than-ideal first impression. David's roots are on the east coast so we spent some time talking about the Carolina Panthers and his work in Washington D.C. before finding his way to the west coast with EGM and 1UP. Once we get to the video game side of things we cover his entry into the industry, the international phenomenon that is The Sports Anomaly and how things changed after the "1Upocalypse". Finally, the incredible story of how he got his job at 343 Industries finishes out this fantastic conversation. Enjoy.

Another week, another episode of the Post Game Report in your ears. This week SugarFree, JVB, SoldierX25 and HeroicSuperman joined forces to offer you 90 minutes of pandemonium. Among the topics covered: Netflix on your PS3, God of War 3 bonus goodies, Bayonetta hype, and free DLC on the PS3. HeroicSuperman tells us which avatar items excite him the most from the recent announcement of unlockable items coming from new releases this fall. Soldier gives a breakdown of how awesome Halo Waypoint is. And it's SugarFree's turn to step up to the balcony, apparently the announcement of the DSi XL did not please him. Not one bit. If you don't like to laugh, you better prepare yourself for a lot of pain. Episode 78 delivers.
