we were way ahead of our time:

I noticed they released Halo 3 and something jumped out at me in the article I read:

“Also new is the ability to record a portion of your game -- such as a homemade highlights reel.”

We came up with that idea ten years ago when we used our VCR to record James Bond Goldeneye multiplayer highlights. Remember that one kill in the Temple Level where I shot a rocket launcher at the catwalk above where you get the body armor and someone turned the corner and got hit from downtown in that huge room? Then we would watch the highlights with each other and our dates.
