Massive new Halo PC vid at FilePlanet
Looks like Gamespy has put up an exclusive Halo PC Multiplayer vid - 141 mb, zipped, on FilePlanet. You can't download it if you're not a subscriber, though - I can't tell you what's in it. Thanks to ko0_ko0 for the heads-up on our forum. (Louis Wu 23:12:40 UTC) (permalink)
Now THAT'S pixel art.
PegNose, a regular on the Gamespot forums, created a slick animated gif (864K) showing the Master Chief in a pixel war with the Covenant. We've added it to our Miscellaneous Art section. It's really quite good. Thanks to Konrad9 for pointing it out. (Louis Wu 21:22:16 UTC) (permalink)
Don't Try This At Home
Master Chief looks like he made a little mess in Blood Gulch... new screenie over at Gearbox's site. No modding needed - that's stuff you can get right from the configure multiplayer dialogues. Whoa. Thanks to spesalfred for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 21:08:38 UTC) (permalink)
Woohoo! He says signal is going up!
A rockin' good time... The HBO Weekly Review has been posted. Save yourself from having to read 4600 forum posts... read this one instead. (Louis Wu 18:58:23 UTC) (permalink)
You and me, baby...
11 new dialogue snippets added to the Dialogue Databank, courtesy of Captain Spark. Some stuff I've never heard before... he's doing a wonderful job of finding the obscure bits. Check out the collection! (Louis Wu 12:29:01 UTC) (permalink)
MCCC Mirrors
Tec[H]noGeeK has mirrored Lion's Master Chief Casting Call (both the WMP and MPEG versions) - if yo'ure having trouble getting it from TruthandReconciliation.com, give this a shot. (Louis Wu 12:10:30 UTC) (permalink)
Elitist Views.
Today's Guest One One Se7en comes from Mikey Cd - it seems he has a bone to pick with BOLL. Poor MC... (Louis Wu 09:19:16 UTC) (permalink)
Halo PC's pistol, the definitive word
Many Halo Xbox players who've had a chance to try out Halo PC (including me) have commented that the pistol seems to be toned down; it's not the dominating weapon it is for Xbox players. Dave Mertz chimed in to a thread on the topic over at the Gearbox Forums with a definitive statement: "The pistol was not touched." It's the lack of auto-aim that gives the impression that it's not as powerful a weapon... and jayWHY, on our own forum, points out that you can test this yourself by attempting to shoot your own teammates on the Xbox version. (There is no auto-aim when your weapon is not trained on an enemy.) Good to know. (Louis Wu 08:42:31 UTC) (permalink)
Pics, pics, and more pics
Hot on the heels of the Wallpaper update, we've cleared out the Miscellaneous Art queue as well. There's a pretty wide range of stuff; comics, some very cool stylized logos, a beautiful pic of a machete-wielding MC, and a bunch of other stuff. Visit the Miscellaneous Art section for all the goodies! (Louis Wu 00:23:53 UTC) (permalink)
Master Chief Casting Call
TruthandReconciliation.com has posted a new movie - it's called 'Master Chief Casting Call', and it's about a couple of guys trying to cast a new Master Chief. They don't have a lot of luck... It's available from the site in two formats: WMP9 (18 mb) and MPEG (35 mb). It's 7:30 long. Go take a look! (Louis Wu 00:14:02 UTC) (permalink)
