Halo 5 Guardians: XBOX One Advert
I recently stumbled across a pretty fun fan-made advertisement on Vimeo - Daniel Kemeys and friends put together Halo 5 Guardians: Xbox One Advert. What would YOU do with a Master Chief suit? The VFX were really well-done - go watch! (Louis Wu 15:28:19 UTC) (permalink)

Rumor: Halo series begins filming in Belfast
Intriguing - Grizzlei pointed out a very short fan-recorded clip showing the filming of SOMETHING in Belfast, Ireland this week. (It's labeled 'Halo filming Titanic Quarter Belfast 28/05/2014' so maybe the person who filmed it knows more than the video shows.) DEEP NNN reminded us that both Frank O'Connor and Kiki Wolfkill are in Ireland this week... so the stars are aligning. Now we just have to wait a year and a half. (Louis Wu 16:43:31 UTC) (permalink)

Oops, I did it again!
You never thought you'd have to be reminded of Britney Spears again, did you? Hah. Another Wednesday came and went without our acknowledgement of the Halo Bulletin - I blame the flood we had yesterday (don't you love it when plumbing goes bad?), but really I have no excuse. You should go read it - it contains info on the newest Halo: Escalation issue, the Minecraft Halo mashup we mentioned last week, Beyond Entertainment's Forge Idol tournament, a super-cool Mammoth from pete_the_duck, and some awesome KotH screenshots. (You can read it in our Halo Bulletin Archive, if you don't want your IP address showing up two days late in Waypoint's logs.) (Louis Wu 16:37:35 UTC) (permalink)

Serious Halo Schwag
Noah Gallup (a name that might ring a bell for some longer-term Halo fans) has a bunch of Halo memorabilia that he's decided to sell - you can swing by eBay to see the links. There are some very rare and very interesting pieces - a Joyride Series 1 Cortana figure, a pair of really amazing Muckle Master Chiefs (I have one, they're gorgeous), and more. For the serious collector, this cache is absolutely worth exploring. Some of the auctions have nearly a week left, while others have only a couple of days - so look soon! (As a side note, writing this has made me realize that Noah's 2005 video was one of the casualties of a server loss in 2010 - I'm going to look into putting a new copy online soon. I don't have a digital version left, but I'm pretty sure I still have one of the DVDs. It was a fascinating view of a Halo fan's excitement for Halo 2's release.) (Louis Wu 16:50:33 UTC) (permalink)

Red vs Blue - the Catch-up Edition
Another thing we've totally missed these past couple of weeks is the continuation of Red vs Blue Season 12. This series has evolved quite a bit; storytelling, music, and the combination of machinima and CGI are all quite sophisticated at this point. Caboose still makes me laugh, but some of the new characters are really interesting, and the plot is compelling. If you haven't been following, Episode 2 (Hit and Run) went live on May 5, and Episode 3 (Something Else Entirely) hit the web on May 12. Go catch up - the next installment launches on Monday!

Not sure how I managed to miss it this week, since I was back in internet land by Wednesday... but somehow, the Weekly Halo Bulletin came and went without an acknowledgement.
