Evolution of Halo Video Finally Released Online

Posted by simoniker on from the long-time-coming dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Halo.bungie.org has made available a video showing the evolution of Halo, from its initial conception as a PC-based RTS game to its final release on the Xbox. The video is 14 minutes long, and is a 'look at some very early builds of Halo, with voiceover and commentary by 4 Bungie employees'. The video was originally shown to a group of Bungie fans at E3 in 2002, and has never been available save 'a [rudimentary] shakycam version' until now - it's being distributed via BitTorrent."

    I watched the thing and the part where the Redmond dump truck (with the "$" sign on the side) pulls up to Bungie headquarters seems to be missing!

    ...I'd like to say: All right, Bungie's servers, you win this round, but we'll get you yet.

    HA HA!! You replaced the S in MS with a dollar sign! Because Microsoft likes money!! Ha Ha! What an evil company - trying to turn profit!! Imagine that??? Jesus, I'm glad Slashdot isn't a corporate entity. Oh wait...Rob Malda sold out. It's $lashdot now right? Oh, by the way, Sun won't open Java up so they're now $un!! HA HA! Man, BURN BURN BURN!!! That'll teach those bigwig CEOs - some guy with a chair that's about to collapse from his immense girth is substituting dollar signs for the S in their company name! HA HA.

    Fuck you. Get a life. You're a moron.
