Ok, this is something that needs to be watched by all Halo game fans - this is "real" action movie in which we get to see how a real mission from Halo 3 would looks like. We can always hope to see a fully featured movie based on the Halo series, but until then we would have to settle for such random videos on the Internet.Warning: some scenes are very "graphic" and the video is rated 17+.

Have you ever wondered how do they really make this video effect (slowing time to see the details, that is)? You might have encountered this really awesome ability in the Max Payne video game, The Matrix movie trilogy (of course), in Enter The Matrix and Matrix Online video games and in newer games like Gears of War, Area 51, Crysis and many other games. It appears in a few varied forms with even more interesting names, but it is literally the same old "bullet time" trick. Why do they call it bullet time? Because the time speed gets so slow under this effect that one can see and dodge bullets after they have been fired and moving slowly towards their target. The catch is that the main character in the game or the movie can move at bullet speed when compared to the maximum speed a normal person can reach. In the video below you see how this effect was achieved in the Matrix movies.

Cliffy B., lead designer of Gears of War video game has recently announced some time ago that new maps are available for the gamers on the Xbox 360. The maps have been tested for a few weeks and you can even find out more details and ingame action in the video below:
