The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

Forge is not innovative. We've seen in-game editors before. And better. As I mentioned earlier, Far Cry for the original Xbox had a more powerful creator that actually let you edit map geometry. Screen shots? Saved films? That's nothing new. Although Halo 3's in-game File Share is a concept not frequently done with console games, it's not like I can't show somebody an awesome screenshot in a game I took over the Internet. Downloading fan game types, images, videos? It's more stream lined and more straight forward to use, maybe, but gamers have been downloading user content for years for PC games. The concept of a replay feature is nothing new. That is not innovative.
