And Logos...
After a long time with no submissions, the Logos section gets another entry. We've also put up a layered Combat Evolved document (photoshop format, 1.1 mb, zipped) that appeared on the web - in a much larger size - for a short time about 18 months ago. If you want to make your own Halo logos (i.e. without the word 'Halo'), this is the puppy you need. (Louis Wu 18:44:21 UTC) (permalink)
More pictures, even.
Next up in the 'clearing the queue' game... 6 art pieces for our Miscellaneous Art collection. Everything from Zelda/Halo crossovers to armed school invasions. Check 'em out! (Louis Wu 18:25:14 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Cheats made easier - no modding required.
Wow. I wonder if this really has a market? A company called CodeJunkies has created a product called ActionReplay, a $39.99 package (£19.99 in the UK) that uses a specially-modified 8 MB memory card to move saved games from your PC to your Xbox and back. (The package comes with 'powersaves' - saved games from critical points in Halo, and other games.) More details can be found in a writeup at XBOX365, which was pointed out to us in our forum by Tomass. (Louis Wu 17:54:01 UTC) (permalink)
Halo PC Strategy Guide details
Nice find by Eclarap - looks like the Official Strategy Guide for the PC version of Halo is being done by Sybex (the Xbox version was done by Prima), and it should be released on June 15, 2003. According to the Amazon.com listing for it,
The PC product refines and improves upon the Xbox version -- which many consider the "best first-person shooter ever" (EGM) -- with greatly enhanced multiplayer capabilities and new weapons and vehicles.
Wonga... should be nice to get hold of this! (Louis Wu 17:46:11 UTC) (permalink)
Pictures for your desktop
Gonna try and clear out the art queue today. First up: desktop images. We've got 7 for you - you'll find 'em in the Wallpaper section. (Louis Wu 17:39:09 UTC) (permalink)

GURPS cover - now mostly readable
Both 2 and 2 make 5, over at Subnova, and Doggone, on our own forum, have cleaned up the recently unearthed (but damaged) front cover for GURPS Halo. Check the pics out, and speculate away! (Louis Wu 14:01:23 UTC) (permalink)
