Wallpaper for the slow
Worried you might forget the Xbox release date? Sikora submits a reminder for our Wallpaper section. (Louis Wu 22:59:26 UTC) (permalink)
Downloadable Interview at BGH
Thanks to Bounty, and the whole Battleground: Halo crew, for getting a downloadable version of the new Interview.wmv up for the masses. Stop by and check it out! (Louis Wu 11:47:20 UTC) (permalink)
More backstory from Microsoft
Geez... almost forgot! Another thing snagged from the Flash site, before it went down, was the informational text on each page. Some of this was very interesting... so here it is. Pay particular attention to the cyborg and backstory sections... comments are welcome on our forum. Looks like the Halo/Marathon linkages might be breaking... (Louis Wu 02:54:04 UTC) (permalink)

Screens snagged from MS Flash site
Well, we can't do anything about the fancy Flash site being down for now... but we can at least show you the new screens that were included in it. Two of 'em are similar to shots that have already been shown (one was seen in a very small format in the OXBM preview last month)... but one shows off the sniper rifle's rangefinding screen. (As those who've seen the Interview movie know, this is different from how it looked there - it's possible there are multiple modes, or it could just be that the screenshot is newer - Ferrex has said that the build used in the Interview movie looks to be about 3 weeks old.) Go visit our Screenshots section! (Louis Wu 02:28:01 UTC) (permalink)
Marty's done
This week's Halo Update is over at Rampancy.net... looks like we may be in luck, in the near future, with new screens/movies! (Personally, I'd LOVE the 50 meg TIFFs... but I understand Matt's point.) On other fronts, it's mostly tweaks... but what, exactly, is 'attract mode'? And oh, yeah... Matt and Mordia blew most of yesterday playing Halo. The bums. Go read the details for yourself!

Screen captures from the interview
For all the folks who can't get the 42 meg Interview, I grabbed a few screen captures. They're not great - Windows Media Player has almost NO controls when it comes to this sort of thing, and play is really choppy on the mac anyway... but they're something. The images are 320x240, the size of the movie - I've captioned them; just click on the thumbnails. Hope this helps a little! (Louis Wu 01:59:43 UTC) (permalink)
