Summary

“

Nearly four years in the making, Halo has inspired fierce anticipation from the moment It was unveiled. Even In the earliest stages of development it was apparent that Halo would not look, sound, or play quite like any other game-but then it was developed by a group of people who were not quite like any other game developers. Now, on the eve of Halo's release, we invite you to watch Halo evolve from an idea into a world-wide phenomenon.
