Although I’ve never mentioned it here before, I’m a huge Halo geek. I’ve got a couple cool Halo-related reviews coming up soon, so in the meantime here is some fresh news regarding the Halo Legends collection of animated shorts.
It was just announced that Warner Bros will be distributing the collection on Blu-ray and DVD on February 9, 2010. It features seven new stories in CG and traditional anime style, and will be rated PG-13 much like the direct-to-video features coming from DC and Marvel.
You’ll be able to pick up the Blu-ray, a 2-disc DVD, and a single disc DVD in February. Besides the 2 hours of animation there will be bonus features like:
- The Making of Halo Legends – An introduction to Halo Legends followed
by a making-of segment for each episode. - Halo: Gaming Evolved – Explaining the Halo phenomenon from its
inception as an Xbox video game to a present day entertainment
franchise. - Audio Commentary with directors Frank O’Connor and Joseph Chou
- Blu-ray Exclusive: – Halo: The Story so Far, an overview of the Halo universe up until
the end of Halo 3
I can’t wait for this, but I guess I’ll have to. Meanwhile you can check out the official site to see the trailer.
