Lanfest pics/vids
(GT)Juggler has put up a bunch of photos and some low-res vids from the or Inerumnis Lannactionica fest yesterday on his website, HaloGT. Warning - first two vids are of a modded copy of DOA Beach volleyball; the girls are missing some items of clothing. Everything else is pretty clean. (Louis Wu 21:57:55 UTC) (permalink)
Gearbox comments about upcoming content
Dave Mertz has posted an update on both the next Halo PC patch (1.03) and the Editing Tools package, over at the Gearbox forum. No definitive dates... but it looks like the tools package might still be a ways off, due to the volume of material that needs to go into it (and the changes necessitated by the latest game patches). Thanks to The Guardians for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 19:34:24 UTC) (permalink)

Blade writes that halo.leetgamers.org has gotten a design overhaul, and tossed the Team Ice affiliation. Content coming at some point. (Louis Wu 19:33:19 UTC) (permalink)
Fan Musings
Yesterday was the 2nd anniversary of the release of the Xbox (and the first chance most people had to play Halo). In a recent article on Bungie.net, SketchFactor asked for fan reminiscences on what Halo's been like for them; several folks posted their thoughts on our forum. The five I found were from Alexis, Gre'Thor117, Mr. Mechanical, Toby Dillman, and omegabullit. (There are other comments in the threads spawned by those posts.) In addition, there are writeups from the Lanwerx party Bungie threw in Seattle (Exogenesis, Pynion, Neo Alucard X (now Alucard), Major Tom, and goatrope), the HBO Junkies fest in Torrington (from KP, who unfairly maligns me throughout), and the iGames regional games (Scimitarex). Lots of thoughts! (Louis Wu 18:30:02 UTC) (permalink)
Had The Rumour Been True...
British spelling aside, Stuntmutt's commentary on the recent Halo-related rumors in today's One One Se7en strip is... spot on. (Louis Wu 15:11:02 UTC) (permalink)
Where's my coffee?
Whoa. Just getting back in gear; got home around 2 am from yesterday's lan festivities. 14 hours of Xbox Halo lan play... I've forgotten how much fun that is. Time to see what's new in the online world, though... (Apologies to anyone annoyed by the usually idling (but sometimes playing) Inerumnis character on the GameDaemons server yesterday; several of us jumped in and out of games using it between lan carnage. Normally, idle players get bumped, so there's room for players who WANT to play - but we figured a couple of hours of the guy wouldn't do TOO much damage.) (Louis Wu 14:14:51 UTC) (permalink)
