Uhm...The first thing I saw of Halo was a lousy streaming quicktime where detail was..well, quite unsufficient to show off Halo's capabilites, so to say. I can't really see the logic here. Sure, now there is nice large movies (with not so nice framerates by the way) but it took a looong time before they were released.
I really don't care about this german movie, I understand that Bungie wants to make a good first impression but why didn't they think so right in the beginning?
