Screensaver, info about 343GS.com
Bluestone posted a bunch of info about 343GS.com on our forum; most of it is 'this is coming in the future', but for right now, there 's a new screensaver for download on their site. Go visit and see. (And read the forum post for the rest.) (Louis Wu 21:07:42 UTC) (permalink)
Eatin' a machine gun sandwich
Red vs Blue Episode 21 has been posted for sponsors - you know how sometimes sequels (or second albums, or second seasons) don't quite live up to the promise of the debut version? Yeah, well, these guys have nothing to worry about in that department. This is hilarious. If you're not a sponsor, you'll have to wait until Sunday to grab this - but for $10, you can grab it now! (And in hi-res, to boot!) No, I don't get a cut if you join... i just like their stuff. (Thanks to gutupio for the heads-up.) (Louis Wu 20:54:53 UTC) (permalink)
I got your six, man
Devin Olsen put up a couple of movies he made while playing on The Library last night. One is just a Sidewinder Sneak used to get the nuke without going through the maze... the other one is pretty cool. He managed to confuse the engine to the point where it thought he was flying two ghosts at once. Bizarre stuff. Thanks to nukedude for the hosting! (Louis Wu 20:47:44 UTC) (permalink)
Final Realise, indeed
Interesting piece on piracy in northern Asia over at Rampancy.net - Narcogen (who currently lives in Kazakhstan) points out a problem that ALL software companies have to deal with... and shows a pretty interesting looking cover of a pirated Halo PC disc. Places the BSA can't reach... (Louis Wu 13:01:49 UTC) (permalink)
Biggest Screen... Ever
As we mentioned yesterday, Halo Babies is offline for another week or so, due to bandwidth excesses. However, Gruntsbane had actually finished the week's strip, and felt that their audience deserved to see it... and we're happy to help out. You can read the weekly strip here (112K).

Pay Attention Double One Se7en
Stuntmutt looks at the logical extrapolation of the modding craze in today's One One Se7en. Let's hope it never gets this bad. (Louis Wu 12:10:13 UTC) (permalink)
Extremely Inefficient
The lag joke continues on today's Halo: Resolution... (Louis Wu 12:08:23 UTC) (permalink)
A contest - to find a contest
A Red vs Blue fan has started up a two-phase contest over on the RvB forums. Chris Short is offering one Season 2 Super Sponsorship ($20) to the best idea for a contest... and then the winner's idea will become phase two, with another super sponsorship (and one standard sponsorship) on the line for the winners. Pretty interesting way to hold a contest when you don't know what the contest should be... rules and stuff can be found in this RvB forum thread. (Louis Wu 12:06:42 UTC) (permalink)
tJy talks to BGH Bigwig
Rams, of Battleground: Halo, has been spotlighted over at the Junkyard; read up on what makes him tick. I'm pretty sure an addiction to mini-sausages doesn't count as a hobby... but hey, with the right mustard, they can make a meal! (Louis Wu 12:01:28 UTC) (permalink)
The Name Of The Game
There's a new Halo comic, called Subzero Rivalries, created by Evilburger; there's something familiar about it. Thanks to MarkHawk for pointing it out. (Louis Wu 02:10:15 UTC) (permalink)
