Speaking to MTV News, Peter Moore has provided an update on the third episode in the Halo series as well as the delayed film adaptation.
While talking about the next wave of Xbox 360 exclusives, which includes Crackdown, Forza Motorsport 2, Shadowrun and Too Human, and are all projected to be available by the end of next June, the VP of Entertainment and Devices Division at Microsoft said he has already seen Halo 3 and believes it will meet gamers’ expectations:
"I actually saw 'Halo 3' last week. It's everything people would expect to see in a next-generation version of 'Halo.' "
Speaking on the Halo movie, Moore confirmed the film won’t arrive next year.
He also revealed that after the decision by Microsoft and Wignut to put the Halo film on hold, several movie studios have gone to New Zealand to check out the pre-production work that has already been done by Peter Jackson and company:
"While we have no deals to announce, everyone in Hollywood is looking at it. For the magnitude of what the script is — I've read the screenplay — and what we need to do to uphold the 'Halo' universe for its legion of fans in the way they want to see a movie being made, no, it won't be next year."
