The Magic of Halo (video and screenshots) discussion.

Here’s the video.

Now for some screenshots:

My favorite Halo developer, Vic Deleon (you can find him on Twitter):

Besides following him on Twitter, I’ve had the privilege to game with him a few times.

I love this shiny logo:

Here’s a bit of the script for Halo 4 (subject to change):

A good shot of how motion capture is done:

Two Concept to In-game shots:
Cryo Tube Hall:

This really looks amazing. Both the concept and finished product have great detail. That finished shot nearly gives me chills with how cold it looks.

A hallway, presumably on the Forward Unto Dawn or Infinity.

Again, both concept and finished shot are great. I kinda wish they’d have left the windows in.

The new styled Warthog in action:

Now who isn’t going to be shooting for those gas cans on the back end???

A Jackal with a new style helmet:

What I like about this helmet is that it looks enough like the traditional Jackals we’re used to.

I think this Grunt’s about to get it…

Ol’ Flipyap is going to be disintegrated by a Promethean Knight.

Commander Thomas Lasky and Captain Del Rio:


The two top officers of the UNSC Infinity. Expect a lot of interaction with Lasky. Not only with the live action series, but within Spartan Ops as well.

The new look of Cortana has really grown on me:

A more feminine jaw. Ah, who am I kidding, nearly all blue sci-fi chicks are hot…LOL.

A “Didact Dog” (A variant on the crawler):

I REALLY prefer this version over the regular crawler. I wonder if they are all like this and can transform from one stage to the other?

And finally a Pelican in flight:

I added some color in this shot to punch it up a bit. Man, I can’t wait to play this campaign!

For these scenes and SO much more, click that link at the top of the article for the video.
