Halo Animated Short Midnight in the Heart of Midlothian January 27, 2025

The official Halo YouTube channel just released a major blast from the past with very little fanfare. In 2009, Microsoft released the very first non-gaming dedicated application, dubbed Halo Waypoint. It allowed gamers to unlock exclusive digital Halo content for the Xbox as well as offered entirely original Halo video content. Part of that content was a series of animated short films which adapted several stories from the Halo novels. One of those stories was The Mona Lisa, which was rereleased this past Halloween. Another was Midnight in the Heart of Midlothian, which was just rereleased earlier tonight!

If you’ve never seen it before or (like me) haven’t seen it in over ten years, you can watch it below!

If memory serves at least one more short film from Halo Waypoint has yet to be re-released. This team would go on to adapt the original Halo novel The Fall of Reach into a multi-part animated film, and that can still be found on several streaming services.

Halo: Infinite is out now for PC, Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S.

It’s going to be another one of those nights if you happen to be an Apple Enthusiast! Apple has just released a major update for all iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Vision Pro and Macs earlier today.

Just be aware that with this update, the Apple Intelligence feature is no longer optional on supported devices, installing the update will force the Apple Intelligence feature ON, and you MUST disable it manually on a per-device basis after concluding the update.

Until Dawn’s First Movie Trailer January 21, 2025

Until Dawn was one of my favorite games for the Playstation 4! It had an incredible story performed by an talented cast and featured a branching storyline that made people want to replay it over and over again. Now, Sony is on the cusp of releasing a feature film based upon the game’s premise, and it will be in theaters soon. Here’s the official trailer!

I’m a little disappointed they’ve chosen to create a new story and hired a new cast, but the filmmakers are making it clear that this film is meant to be a new story in the Until Dawn universe, with a new mechanic (the repeating days) to adapt the gameplay to a linear film. Time will tell if this ends up working out, but I’m willing to keep an open mind. I did REALLY love Sony’s previous film adaptation for Gran Tursismo.

An impressive title I’ve been wanting to see in VR has just been released for the Quest 3, let’s take a look at Human Within and its launch trailer!

A branching live-action FMV game produced exclusively for virtual reality? This is EXACTLY what I’ve been hoping to see come to the medium since I got involved in it two years ago. Where do I sign up for more?

Human Within is out now for Meta Quest. It is also coming to PCVR.

Gaming History You Should Know – The Greatest Speeches by Steve Jobs January 9, 2025

Welcome back to Gaming History You Should Know. Normally, we’d host this kind of article on a Sunday and feature an independent video, but today is the anniversary of the reveal of the iPhone, and we wanted to celebrate it, and the life of the man who presented it. How did it get revealed? Take it away, Steve.

Over the past few years Apple has lead the world in innovation and has reaped the benefit of becoming one of the most powerful companies in the world. They are known for iconic products such as the Mac, iPhone, iPad and Vision Pro, and most tech journalists credit them for setting the gold standard on a tech product release due to the fact that every other company who released similar products after Apple did (such as Microsoft) simply copied Apple’s design interfaces for their own products. Following the death of Apple’s co-founder Steve Jobs, several researchers looked back at some of Steve’s greatest moments, and we wanted to share some of those great moments with all of you today!

The iPhone announcement wasn’t the only major iconic moment Steve has provided us over his lifetime, and Jobs worked at Apple for a very long time. Today, we’re going to look back at some of Steve’s greatest speeches and announcements, and to begin with we’re going to go back to the 1980s. I would argue most people were first exposed to Steve when he first revealed the Mac computer.

The Mac would go on to literally redefine what we could do with a personal computer, and its legacy lives on to this day as Apple still continues to release some of the best personal computers on the market.

In 2010, following the massive success of the iPhone, Steve was not going to rest on his success. The iPhone was small and simple which was perfect on the go, but what would you use if you wanted something bigger and weren’t on the go? There were desktops and laptops, but most people just needed them to be able to browse the web or check their email. The time was right to bring in a new electronic form factor, the Tablet. Here’s Steve Jobs’s reveal of the iPad.

It took a few revisions before the iPad would gain mass market appeal, but the appeal did come. To this day, the iPad is still credited as the beginning of the tablet revolution, and as extremely powerful iPads have been released, tablets have taken a huge piece out of the sales of laptops. Streaming services releasing native apps for iPad made media consumption easier than ever. In fact, a peer of mine who hates Apple even admitted to me that the iPad Pro is without a doubt the best tablet currently for sale.

In 2005, Steve was asked to attend the commencement for Stanford University. In that iconic speech, he spoke about his life, his business experience, and his battle with cancer.

I wanted to end this article with a video about Steve’s work in charity and philanthropy. Following his first battle with cancer, Steve was invited to advocate for organ donations in the state of California. To this day, I still can’t believe Steve shared the stage with Arnold Schwarzenegger, but he did, and this is the video of it!

That’s where we’d like to wrap this look back into the past of just some great moments from Steve Jobs. Thank you for taking this look with me through the years, and rest in peace, Steve.
