Tim Miller and Dave Wilson, the masterminds behind the Secret Level anthology, spilled the beans on the challenges they faced trying to get certain properties included in the Prime Video series. Even Microsoft gave them the cold shoulder when it came to Halo!
Negotiating with publishers and producers proved to be a tough nut to crack, with many companies opting to stick with their current partners rather than taking a leap of faith. It seems like Hollywood politics played a role in scuppering some potential deals too.
Despite their best efforts, not every game they wanted to feature made the cut. Miller can’t help but roll his eyes at online comments questioning the absence of Halo. He’s quick to retort, “Do you really think we didn’t consider Halo?”
Wilson chimed in, reminiscing about a heartfelt letter he penned in a bid to secure a crossover between Master Chief and Doom Slayer. Alas, their pleas fell on deaf ears. They even tried their luck with Half-Life, but hey, you win some, you lose some.
