Before there was Halo...

Some of you guys are probably familiar with what Halo looked like before it hit the Xbox. In a recent GAF post (you’ll have to excuse me, I cannot find the link), Frankie said there was a possibility that perhaps 343 would release a playable version of Halo 2’s E3 Demo. If that were to be the case, I’d love get my hands on all of the other pre-Xbox Halo builds as well (and maybe the Halo CE E3 Demo). PC versions would be great, but they would make an even better addition as bonus features for Halo 2 Anniversary. :wink:

EDIT: More pre-Xbox Halo builds

Halo 2 E3 demo? The one that should have been in the game in the first place?
Yes, please.

Screw, the other builds. The Halo 2 E3 demo would be the best DLC package 343 could possibly release.

It was soooo disappointing (I’m still bitter about it) that Halo 2 didn’t feature anything like that back in the day and we’re still quite a ways off from having that good [looking] a campaign mission. It did everything that a sequel to Halo CE should have done (ie. non-linear mission structure, more organic [looking] gameplay, more atmosphere) and even if 343 doesn’t port it to Halo 4…or something else they should still make a very earnest attempt to live up to it.

I recall that over at GAF but I don’t recall Frankie saying anything about releasing it. All he mentioned was that build existed somewhere over at 343i and that it wasn’t lost as another GAF member though it was lost by Bungie.
