The intro movie to Tekken 4 is pre-rendered.
The cinematics in Ninja Gaiden (You can easily pick them out... they're the better looking ones)

I don't know if you guys will get it... But the graphics are rendered beforehand, and saved as a movie file which is just played by your X-Box.

Whereas in Halo, the movies were rendered in real time with in game graphics..

This is why films generally look so much better than games.

I know what you mean, it's like a seperate file and it plays the file but in halo it just basically automatically control your guy and play sounds and stuff(In ATtCR i died at the end but i still beat the lvl cause i died as it was going to white*to the movie* and then it showed the movie as me dead saying stuff and everything, it was funny) so yea it would be sweet i guess, but take away fom that whole halo feeling, ya know...?

Some things could be like that, but things like the intro, ending, and important scenes...
But if they haven't started pre-rendered scenes already, they probably wouldn't be able to finish alot by November 9th...
