Audio Clips

These clips are taken from Amazons preview clips on the Halo official soundtrack.

Perchance to Dream

Rock anthem for saving the world

I couldn't find any for Halo 3 which is a much better soundtrack.

Flash Animation

I dont know what this is, but I thought it was awesome.

Most all flash animations are made using Vector graphics, these are computer generated images made of mathematically calculated shapes. Because the computer "draws" the shapes, they can be scaled to any size and still retain their appearance. Raster images are ones such as JPEG and GIF that are rendered with pixels. If you tried to scale up a raster image like a vector one, you will get distortions and pixelation the larger you go.

As awesome as this would be, it is sadly fake... Maybe someday, through genetic research this could be possible!

JPEG images are fantastic for showing lots of detail in large complex images. Whereas GIF images are small in size meant to load quickly.

GIF Images


This would be a perfect example of a GIF image.
