Question...

It seems to me that PS was inspired by halo, mainly the older things, because HALO was originally going to be one continuous non-linear game, where you could go anywhere on the ring. Not only that, but they were considering making a MMOFPS style game. Just wondering...

You mean PS, and it was actually based off of Tribes and Tribes 2. I wouldn't say that it had any connection to Halo, only the buggies..maybe.

[Sputty]

It's more related to Tribes, yeah. even though it's rather original in concept.

Also I believe PS was in development before, or at the same time, as Halo, but then again, Halo did take forever so it may be older.

Actually, Halo was originally planned to be a multiplayer only game for the PC.

Halo and PS were in development at the same time.. I think the interface was inspired by Deus Ex they said at one point.
