Here is an interesting link via Kieran Jacobsen’s blog. It seems that Microsoft has signed a deal with Fox and Universal to make a movie based on the video game Halo.
I thought that this had already been done 
Seriously though, I can’t see why Microsoft can’t capitalise on popular games, after all, they made two BoobTomb Raider movies!
It will be interesting to see what they do with the script so that it differentiates itself from Starship Troopers which has a similar type of vibe. Maybe they should get guys like Dean Loaney to act in the movie!
I plan on finding time to get my butt kicked by Dean in Halo 2 at TechEd 2005!
