The Evolution of Halo
Wow. Maybe not the best night to be doing this... but you play the hand you were dealt, right? Back in 2002, Bungie showed a pretty cool movie to the attendees of the E3 Fanfest. It was called 'Evolution of Halo', and it was a look at some very early builds of Halo, with voiceover and commentary by 4 Bungie employees (Marty O'Donnell, Shikai Wang, Rob McLees, and Paul Russell). If you're a fan of behind the scenes-type stuff, this is your kind of move. Unfortunately, at the time, Bungie was pretty clear about the fact that this movie would never, ever make it out onto the internet in hi-res format. However... this month, PC Gamer UK has included a copy on their cover disc, and that means the gloves are off. However, due to our bandwidth issues, we're going to run an experiment that we've been meaning to try for some time now; we're going to release this purely via peer-to-peer sharing applications. This was going to be a test of the Two Degrees network, but there's no Mac client; we didn't feel comfortable excluding Mac users. Therefore, it's also available via the BitTorrent network. Since our server is spotty tonight, the mirror page is being hosted here for the time being; visit, grab the client of your choice, and get to downloading! (Thanks have to go to Griffon, for the heads-up on the movie. I didn't end up using his submitted rip of the film... but I wouldn't have known I could release if not for him.)
