yes thank GOD that microsoft stepped in... because it wasnt Bungies desire to better their game and do everything possible they could, but it was Microsofts godly power... that is the only reason that we have the great halo games we have now..
believe it or not but that was good for what 1998? they stated its a WIP, that was early stages of development... if halo had come out on the mac or Apple made some gaming counsel Microsoft and Xbox wouldnt be poop today. Microsoft didnt make Bungie/halo better its the other way around.
so before you dis early renders, and concepts for Halo 1 let us remember that Halo is the soul reason that Gaming and counsels are where they are today... Bungie still brings brand new ideas/technology in gaming to the table and are still raising the bar.
