Now everybody can become a Halo hero. Microsoft announced today that it will stage a traveling event dubbed Halo: Outpost Discovery in five cities this summer.

The fan events will take place in convention centers where Microsoft and its 343 Industries division can bring to life the characters and environment of the Halo universe, which is nearly two decades old. The event is kind of like a mini-theme park for Halo, and so it fits in with the trend toward theme parks and events featuring video game themes.
