At the Electronic Entertainment Expo in 2007, Ensemble Studios showcased a demo of Halo Wars. The demo was later released on the official halowars.com website (which itself launched at the same time as the demo's release[1]) as a free download, alongside a number of screenshots, renders and concept art.[2][3]
The demo was showcased at E3 in 2007. The build was put together in the weeks leading up to the event, and taken to Santa Monica by Producer Chris Rippy and Lead Designer Graeme Devine, wherein the demo was shown to around three hundred journalists over the course of three days, who were able to play the demo. The demo was positively recieved, with the console-centric controls picked up by the players without much issue. To showcase the demo, a number of spare devkits were taken to the event in case of issues, though they were ultimately not needed.[1]
The E3 2007 stage demo showcases a radically different game than what eventually released in 2009 - later remarked upon by Pottinger as " a lot of the PC RTS still in transition to the console".[4] When put together, the demo represented one of the first times the art team was able to put all of their work together for a presentation, and helped future development by identifying weaker areas in the visual design.[5] The game has a noticeably muddier visual tone, and showcases a number of units and buildings that never made the final release. One of the most radical of these is the inclusion of the Protos-pattern Scarab; the Scarab design featured prominently in Halo 2. By the final release, this Scarab was cut entirely and replaced with the Type-47B model that made its debut in Halo 3. Other units seen in the demo and related promotional imagery that would later be cut from the final release include the Elite Rangers and Brute Tank.
Of the changes from this build to the final build, the most notable is that of the UNSC base construction system. In this build of Halo Wars, base building was intended to be much more free-form than the system seen in the final game, with bases and buildings seemingly able to be placed anywhere the player liked - much akin to more traditional real-time strategy games. The base designs seen in the build shown at E3 2007 demonstrate a total aesthetic change from the final game; the Airpad building contains a runway and hangar with Sparrowhawks docked on the runway, the Barracks building has Marines doing drill exercises outside it and the other buildings - the command centre, Vehicle Depot and Field Armory all demonstrate notable aesthetic changes. In addition, the base has some additional building types; the missile silo and the landing pad.
It is unknown precisely how base site selection was intended to work in this build of the game. In the demo, the base is nestled into a custom-built section of the map, complete with specially-designed perimeter walls, towers and turrets (all of which were cut from final release). Ultimately, this system was deemed as too complex, with the development team ultimately working on five redesigns of the building system over the following year to reach the system found in the E3 2008 demo and the final game. One thing that was particularly well-recieved from the E3 2007 demo was the appearance of units physically leaving the base, and this was ultimately kept for final release.[6]

The company refers to this demo as the first one; it is conceivable that demos of Portal and Team Fortress 2--the other two major titles in The Orange Box--will follow. It's unknown whether or not a PC demo will be released.Maarten GoldsteinFiled UnderXbox Live Marketplace

New York, NY - August 13, 2007 - 2K Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO), announced today that the demo of BioShock is now available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. The BioShock Windows PC demo will be available for download later this month.
Unfortunately, Jobs had a big problem: the iPhone didn't really exist. Yet in January of that year, he planned to demo the iPhone to an audience at the company's Macworld conference that included customers, partners, tech media...and the world. All he had to show them was a flawed, unfinished model and some big ideas. So what did Jobs do? He decided to mislead his audience.
Sure, there was no way that Jobs was fully certain that all the features he promised on the iPhone would actually work in the real world. But he plowed ahead anyway with his fake demonstration. Why? Because he believed he was doing the right thing.
To achieve that, the band threw a real party in the studio as explained by Chester, "I've played everything from clapping, stomping my feet, we had a party in the studio once and recorded that, that's the beginning of "Bleed It Out"."[6] The April 2007 issue of a French magazine published a track by track of Minutes To Midnight on which Rob said, "Rick Rubin had the idea to bring all the people from Linkin Park's maintenance team (make-up, photographers and security guards) into the studio and record their cheering voices to this song. The track was recorded almost at the very end of the recording of the entire album and was a great celebration for the completion of the work." Chester added, "It's Linkin Park's style (intro, rap verse, chorus, rap verse, chorus, bridge and chorus again); Mike raps and I do the choruses. This song has exactly the same structure as the old band songs, but the manner in which we performed it is very different."[7]
Projekt Revolution saw the song moving around with the introduction of three rotating sets. First off, the band began performing an extended intro to the song, where the intro riff would be repeated several times before kicking into the main song. The band started to regularly perform the extended bridge sing-a-long starting on this tour, too. Lastly, a new jam outro that featured the chorus instrumental being performed from a slow tempo, gradually being sped up to a very fast tempo debuted, as well. The outro was performed semi-regularly, with it always being performed with the song closing out the show, but played on and off when the song did not. In Set A, "Bleed It Out" closed the show for the first time, being the first song besides "Faint" to close a show on the Minutes To Midnight Touring Cycle. In Set B, the band performed it second-to-last in the encore, before "Faint". Set C had the song close out the main set. Beginning at the show in Phoenix, Arizona, Rob began to perform a drum solo during the bridge of the song. He explained, "I actually never have really tried doing drum solos until the other guys asked me to do them. I just play whatever comes to mind at the time with a general idea of what to do based on previous solos."[20] At the MTV Video Music Awards in 2007, the band performed the song unannounced, with Timbaland doing a remix intro of the song to introduce it.[21] The following Minutes To Midnight Asian Tour followed the same general position of "Bleed It Out" with the same setlists as Projekt Revolution. At the KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas in 2007, the band performed an extended jam intro to the song, as well as Rob performing a drum solo with members of the U.C.L.A. "BRUIN" marching band during the extended bridge.
The message we wanted to convey by proposing a sequel at O'Reilly Emerging Technology 2007 is: microformats make integration easy. It's not just demos of lone sites that support microformats this year; it's about the magic of connecting two (or more) Web-based services...
Brief Description: Microformats are a clever adaptation of semantic XHTML that makes it easier to share structured information such as tags, calendar entries, contact information, and reviews. This demo session will show off real products that are using microformats to connect multiple Web services, such as Live Clipboard, Pingerati, and Flickr geotagging. (50 words) 2ff7e9595c
