Hogs... WHERE?
Well, he can't drive to save his life, but he's a pretty dang good hacker... Pfhorslayer has made a small (2.2 mb, QT) movie showing warthogs on Hang 'em High. We've put up a local copy of it, because his bandwidth won't hold out. A novelty item for sure! Update: Macegac has provided a mirror, as well. (Louis Wu 22:04:23 UTC) (permalink)
Another screenie from Gearbox
Gearbox has posted another screenshot - this one of a Load Game screen. Very, very nice - games are now saved by how far into them you are, and you don't overwrite the last one by starting another. Tasty! Thanks to Uukla the Mok for the heads-up. Update: Very cool - a Gearbox employee explains (on their forum) what the screen is showing you. It should definitely excite some of you... thanks to Uukla the Mok for finding it. (Louis Wu 20:24:38 UTC) (permalink)
More Halo Sites
Two more Halo sites for you: Halo Production and Team Kill. And the parade goes on... Update: The folks at Halo Production have run over their bandwidth, but have provided a second link. (Louis Wu 17:20:03 UTC) (permalink)
Halo PC footage, captured at GenCon
Dinky stopped by our forum with some links to Halo PC gameplay at GenCon last month. Movie hosting is provided by the Junkyard - thanks, guys! Update: Dinky has put up new mirrors for part 1, part 2, the single player footage. Also, Jake at the Junkyard points out that they're only hosting the single-player footage; Dinky's handling the original multiplayer links. Update 2: No sooner had I written this than Jake wrote AGAIN, saying that there ARE now versions hosted at the Junkyard. So: Follow the original link for the HJP copies, or visit the Junkyard's Halo movies page for MORE mirrors. (Louis Wu 15:37:24 UTC) (permalink)
Chupa-thingys everywhere...
Halo gets a mention in yesterday's Ctrl+Alt+Del comic. Thanks to Spenser for the heads-up. Update: S7N points out that there are many Halo-related Ctrl+Alt+Del strips - like, for example, this one from January. Browse the archives for more! (Louis Wu 15:14:38 UTC) (permalink)
New Skins Made Easy
eXentric has created a Map Editor for editing hacked Halo maps (to create the sorts of fun toys folks have been posting for the past few days). Some rather draconian rules had to be laid down on our forum recently, covering what is, and is not, acceptable to discuss in reference to this topic; luckily, eXentric has set up a forum for discussion of Cartographer (the editor) over at Xbox-Scene. Check it out! (Louis Wu 12:35:49 UTC) (permalink)
