Have you ever played Halo for the Xbox? It is such a fun game.
No I haven't.  But I know it is a military science-fiction game.
That is right. In fact they are making a movie based on it. I can't wait. I really like science fiction.
I also know that Halo centers on an interstellar war, so will the movie be something like Star Wars?
Yeah it could be like that. I don't know the details of the plot but it has a pretty big budget I believe.
And it seems that the term "Halo" refers to the Halo ring, that are large habitable superweapons, is that right?
Yeah the Halo is the big weapon that the aliens and humans are battling for control over. Part of why I like the video game is the rich storyline.
I will have to try it someday.  I find it interesting that it focus on a group of supersoldiers called Spartans.
Yeah it was the game that got Microsoft to successfully launch the Xbox. Without it I bet Xbox would not be around today.
Xbox (console)
The Xbox is a home video game console and the first installment in the Xbox series of consoles manufactured by Microsoft. It was released as Microsoft's first foray into the gaming console market on November 15, 2001, in North America, followed by Australia, Europe and Japan in 2002. It is classified as a sixth generation console, competing with Sony's PlayStation 2 and Nintendo's GameCube. It was also the first console produced by an American company since the Atari Jaguar ceased production in 1996.
