HEK never coming out? I suspected as much...

A post made by NitrousOxide that I couldn't agree more with. It seems everyone in the Microsoft-Bungie-Gearbox ring seems to be playing the blame game as to why the HEK isn't out. I suspected this since the beginning of this year with all the 'wait for HEK' hype going around. I didn't expect it to come out then, and I don't expect it to come out now. I think the HEK most likely is in a state of limbo, partially worked on, but most likely thrown on the back burner, soon to be forgotten. Microsoft may be hoping to tide us over with 'screenshots' and such until Halo 2 is released so we will forget halo pc editing.

This brings me to another point. I will probably stop modding after the release of my sonic mod for xbox and pc. You guys were great but I think it is simply time for me to move on. Sorry about the lack of screenshots, but I have been really busy lately.

Well, it's now April Fools. (Where I live anyway.)
So that gives them about 2 weeks, and HEK is now a joke...

and we have how much confidence that that is true? seriously, how many times have you heard the phrase "2 weeks" be more like 5 months? no names named.
