Halo and Master Chief's co-creator Marcus Lehto recently went into detail about the series' earliest days, and has even spilled the tea on how Microsoft wrangled the game out of competitor Apple's hands.

CEO and company founder Steve Jobs even introduced the game to the world on stage during 1999's Macworld Conference, which still had an epic theme tune and aliens but was otherwise very different to the Halo we know now.
