Kurzbeschreibung
When Halo® hit the shelves with the launch of the Xbox® in 2001, it was an immediate sensation.

The Art of Halo is a showcase of its stunning visual style, a fascinating guided tour through the making of the phenomenon–from bright idea to brilliant result–and a testament to the creativity of the artists at Bungie Studios.

Ich selbst bin begeisterter HALO-Fan und kenne mich daher recht gut mit den Spielen aus. Und daher muss ich sagen, dass mir The Art of HALO mehr als nur sehr gut gefallen hat. Hunderte Konzeptzeichnungen und 3D-Render sind von den Umgebungen, Menschen, Covenant und Flood zu finden. Die Zeichnungen beinhalten sowohl die Charaktere aus Halo 1 als auch Halo 2. Konzeptzeichnungen zu den Multiplayer-Karten sind ebenfalls vorhanden.
Der Aufbau einer Videosequenz, welche man aus dem E3 2004 Trailer kennt, Geheimnisse und Hintergrundinfos und vieles mehr machen das Buch zu einem Muss für jeden, der ein HALO-Fan ist.

Text und Bild sind sehr gut kombiniert und in hoher Qualität dargestellt.

Incredible Art
17. November 2004
Format:Taschenbuch
This has to be one of the most fascinating and amazing collections of artwork I've ever seen... and it's from a videogame! The artwork produced by Bungie is nothing if not spectacular. The artistry, imagination, and dedication needed to bring those ideas to life in a game is beyond what one would expect from a game. Halo is truly a work of art in itself. The look into character development and design is something a gamer doesn't always get to see. This will make them appreciate the amazing work that Bungie does even more.

A pretty good art book
16. August 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
Packed with plenty of eye candy for the reader to look over and interesting writings about the development of the game. I was pleased to find a decent amount of conceptual sketches and beautiful environmental renderings.
As far as the down side of the book, a good portion of the art is cut outs of in game 3D characters and weapons, which is fine in it's own right, but what really caught my eye is the amount of stretching and poor quality anti-alias 2d images all over the place. I wouldn't mind them so much if this was a general HALO book, but seeing that this is the ART of HALO Book, it leaves something to be said about the editors.
That aside, i am really pleased with this book. I wish it were somewhat thicker but for it's size it really does provided plenty of good stuff to look over and read about.
4 out of 5 from me.

Better to google for the images
10. Juni 2007
Format:Taschenbuch
My advice is for the buyer to look over the actual book before purchasing.
I had expected the book to be filled with awesome illustrations previously exclusive to Bungie employees, but most I had already found through Google. I was disappointed that they fill a good portion with space-filler character templates. The quality of some pictures printed don't match up to the quality of the same images uploaded onto the net by the company.
The writers could of placed some effort in detailing how Bungie created the virtual world, considering how its part of the title... Its not as well written as other reviewers would lead you to believe. I'm not hating, the art work is GREAT. It's just not worth the money as it's currently priced (That's why I gave a rating of three).
I bought this as a gift for a Halo addict, who loved it. A must have for devoted fans, but never buy it for yourself.
