Justin S. Oct.14/10 Halo Reach

I chose this documentary on Halo Reach because it is the last game of the Halo series that concludes all that has happened throughout Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo ODST and Halo Waypoint. The game designers tell the story of how the evolution of game processors and computer software has opened up endless possibilities for the Halo franchise. The overwhelming facts exposed in this documentary make me think in a whole new way about the process of creating video games. The creators of Halo Reach are always trying to create a more enjoyable gaming experience by making you further understand whats going on in the game and make you feel apart of the game you are playing instead of just controlling a random character with a controller. The evolution of gaming back from the release of Halo: Combat Evolved in 2001 to the present and the release of Halo Reach is mind boggling in so many ways. With four times as much more pentagons to work wi th th e visual affects are astounding. The enhancing of the speed within the game has made the multi-player experience so much more enjoyable and the huge expansion of the amount of enemies and players allowed on a single map has increased so drastically that the amount of different ways to approach a level or strategize is so dynamic. In this documentary i have learned that the world of video gaming has changed so drastically back when the first Halo was released and has created such a vast library of players that they have over 3,000,000+ players online at any given time shows that the creators of the Halo franchise have been successful at gathering and keeping such a large variety of players shows that this documentary is right when the come to say that these creators know what their doing when it comes to in depthly involving their players in their video game. RUN-ON SENTENCE!

A very clear description of the content. Describe how the film maker made his points using the visual genre of documentary.
