Template:Infobox CVG The Untitled Halo Project is an episodic project that was announced at Microsoft's Xbox show, X06. Peter Jackson, with his recently-formed Wingnut Interactive, will create a game set in the Halo universe, in partnership with Bungie Studios. The game is toted to be a 'new chapter' in the Halo story and is slated to feature a new way of playing games. [1]
In UK Xbox 360 magazine Xbox World 360, it was speculated that the game will be more of an 'interactive movie', where some parts will be semi-playable, and certain decisions will lead to different outcomes that you then have to watch play out. They also stated in the same issue that they believed the game would retail for half the cost of a normal Xbox 360 title.
It was confirmed by Shane Kim at GDC 07 that the project was an episodic title. According to Microsoft, Bungie and Jackson are planning two episodic series for the Xbox 360. These games appear to be in a downloadable format. Microsoft went on to say that the game is now in the development phase.[1].
Peter Jackson
Peter Jackson, who is also producing a movie based on Halo, had this to say about the New Project:
"I'm getting a little bored with films, ... More and more I'm looking forward to the release of games and not movies. I am more aware and excited about games."
"I do not have to keep delivering stories as movies - there are other things I can do."
"Technology is at a point where we can blend a lot of film storytelling with interactive entertainment... the series would not be for hard-core gamers."
