Wow.
A surprisingly deep collection of artwork today has been added to the Miscellaneous art section, including a nice faked Halo2 shot, an interesting take on Cortana, and a pair of simply gorgeous comic-style MCs from ZZoMBiE13 (I'd love to have these last two hanging on my wall!). Check 'em all out! (Louis Wu 21:46:45 UTC) (permalink)

Randy Pitchford Talks to Telefragged
Telefragged has put up an interview with Randy Pitchford, president of Gearbox, about Halo PC. Much of the info is already out there, but there are some new tidbits. For example, there will be a 'Classic' mode in multiplayer that leaves things exactly as they are in the Xbox version, for the purists. (No banshees in Blood Gulch for you folks!) He's also more optimistic about Coop - though it might not be there at launch. There's a teaser about Halo PC League play... and some more details about how the multiplayer is set up. For the doomsayers among you, Randy has this:
Halo for PC will come sometime in late summer.
Go check the whole thing out! Thanks to Ramius for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 17:08:19 UTC) (permalink)

Dave Writz of Halogamers.com has found a new place to use the ghost jumping trick on Sidewinder - it's a pretty fast in-and-out when you're headed for a flag capture! Take a look; 6.4 mb in MPEG2 format. (If anyone has real trouble with the format, let us know - I'm sure Dave would be willing to offer a different flavor.) (Louis Wu 00:09:20 UTC) (permalink)
