Video: The Evolution of Halo & Before Combat Evolved - Halo 3 ODST

The Evolution of Halo & Before Combat Evolved - featuring Halo 3: ODST




This video features "The history of all the Halo games and some other things. The strange game you see at first is Halo, the game, on Macintosh computers before Halo Combat Evolved." ~ ForgeOracle




Halo 3: ODST is visually stunning animation technology! The design and technology skill level this game reflects are off the charts. View more of ODST: http://www.bungie.net/Projects/odst/default.aspx.



Viewing this brief video was my first visual exposure to Halo, and being an artist, an animation fan and designer, visuals such as this catch my eye. I've heard of Halo long prior to this viewing, however, I had not viewed any Halo products prior to this viewing. And, as I mentioned the design, animation and other skills utilized to create the product are impressive. Per a designer's eyes it's simply stunning!



Now, it would be absolutely wonderful if this level of animation technology skill were applied to some, if not all, of the war stories of the Creator's Bible, depicting good winning over evil. I would buy and watch that again and again!!! Now, that I've seen a bit of Halo: ODST I'll learn more about its history and overall storyline; it may be about good versus evil, too.

Simply stated, I'm a fan of Intel products. One of the latest technologies from Intel is the Solid State Drive (SSD). Intel's SSD is a break through in traditional storage technology with improvements in transfer rate, reliability, power consumption, and durability. The Intel SSD is supported on desktop, server, and mobile applications.
