The Mystery Woman on BA
Rockin'. FormerCide discovered a bitmap of a mystery woman on the level Boarding Action (PC version), when he was messing around in the game's resources. (BOLL posted the pic, because FormerCide wasn't sure if it was kosher to do so, and BOLL figured he was 5000 miles from Bungie headquarters and was immune to death rays.) This afternoon, Chris Butcher stepped in to identify the picture as that of the girlfriend of the original artist working on Boarding Action (someone who no longer works at Bungie). The weird part is... they'd FOUND the pic, once, and removed it. It came back. (Or was present twice.) Just goes to show... there are still things left to find! (Louis Wu 19:10:41 UTC) (permalink)
When MCs Go Bad
GLADIATRRR3000 has put together a funny little Flash animation, called 343 Guilty Stick. It weighs in at 2.4 mb. Enjoy! (Louis Wu 12:04:30 UTC) (permalink)
Ownt looks at HPC
Ownt put up a review of Halo PC yesterday. They liked it quite a lot (gave it an Uber Ownage award). Repetitive levels in single player and some clipping bugs in MP brought its score down to 90. (There are also 44 highly compressed images, mostly of the levels Halo and TImberland.) Thanks, Blue's News (via Ash). (Louis Wu 10:54:53 UTC) (permalink)
Red vs. ... Who Part 5
Today's Guest One One Se7en is the last in a series of spoofs of RvB. (For what it's worth, this is the sort of strip that will be added to the One One Se7en Archive automatically, once it opens on Monday.) This one shows the danger of spinoffs - to the ORIGINAL. And remember - if you've got a guest strip in the queue (a queue which is currently almost 40 strips long), you can STILL get it added to the Archives very first posting, in 2 days. Just let us know.) (Louis Wu 10:38:20 UTC) (permalink)
Macsoft puts up Mac Halo page
Cool. Macsoft has put up a full webpage for Mac Halo - a sign that release really isn't very far away. Release date: December 11, 2003. A week later than originally suggested... but coming from the producer, it's a pretty reliable date. (I'm tickled that we got one of the circle links at the top...) Thanks to Iceman1330 for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 09:50:41 UTC) (permalink)
