Book Reviews of The Art of Halo: Creating A Virtual World
Book Review: The Art of HALO - A Great Insight to the World of HALO
Summary: 5 Stars
The Art of HALO: Creating a Virtual World is a book that must be a part of your Halo collection. Much like the Halo Encyclopedia, The Art of Halo demonstrates all the character designs of different versions to the final product. This goes for all the different locations in the Halo Universe. Ranging from:
Environments.
Vehicle Design.
Character Uniform Study.
To the Weapons and Gear.
The artwork and amount of detail that Bungie has put into the Halo franchise is outstanding. The created worlds and level of design is beautiful.
Although i did expect a little more out of the book, but it is still a great book for your collection.
So go out there and buy it for your collection
Happy Shopping!
Book Review: Stunning !!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book clearly shows just how much time, energy, passion & love went into creating the entire world of Halo. The creation of the art work is simply stunning, if you enjoy glorious colour & unbelievable creative spirits, you owe it to yourself to get a copy of this book. Then as a added treat, check out on-line some of the HD trailers which are available, if your able, try to get copies on DVD & watch them on a large screen TV in full HD mode ... check your heart rate before & after ... if you don't have goose bumps & want to run out & buy a Xbox 360 & Halo 2 or 3 ... you may want to check your pulse. 5 stars out of 5 stars ... easy.Book Review: Eye Candy for The True Collector
Summary: 5 Stars
After reading some mixed reviews, I decided for the price to go ahead and give it a buy. I was not disappointed. Yes, this book does not cover anything past Halo 2, but, the book contains a lot of behind the scenes making of tidbits, as well as TONS of concepts and sketch art that you would not find published anywhere else. I was not disappointed with this book, and am glad to add it to my Halo collection. Like I said, any TRUE Halo fan should and would not have any complaints about adding this book to their library, and I strongly recommend purchasing it just for the eye candy alone! HALO FTW!!Book Review: Incredible Art
Summary: 5 Stars
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.Book Review: Great for any Halo fan
Summary: 5 Stars
Being a big fan of Halo myself, I got this as a Christmas present and was very amazed from the level of detail the book goes into. Although it being slightly outdated, only talking about Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2, This book was definately a great gift.
