I recently redescoved the website for Halo 3 the action packed cult game from Microsoft. i would have to say this is the best website i have seen in a long time!
The main site is made from a 3d model made entilely from hand. I have read around and it turns out that even the smoke from the cannons was made by hand (cotten wool sound
crap but looks amasing!)
They have made the website interactive by allowing the vister to pan through the screen and take screenshots for your very own custom background!
The loading page i found very intresting because before you can enter the site you have to choose from a drop down menu and before you can even do that you have to enter your age, If you dont meet the minimum age limmit it will lock out out of the site so you cannot go any further, (good for any consurned parent!)
The sweeps though the screens look very detailed, and sometimes you fine a small blue square and if you click on it you can get shown a vidow or a personal from the "goodie" side or a personal from the "baddy" side.
All in all its a very cool website and i would really recommend looking it up, please be weary though if you are under 16 you will get locked out of the site, as i stupidly wanted to test out :( and now i cannot get back online even by refreshing.
this was to check your age all you did was put in the day,month and year you where born
the main loading screen
the main loading screen again (my internet is slow)
This was the first screen you saw when you first went on the site, you then had a pop-up of instructions to move through the site. 
this was one of the personals from the "goodie" side this picture was of a first person account of what happend to him.
the AWSOME cotten wool tank smoke!!!
