Advanced Essentials
As a followup to their Basic Essentials movie released last week, [-GTC-] has created Advanced Essentials, a new film showing some lesser-known tricks of the trade. Some are useful in single player (grenade jumping, for example), while others are purely multiplayer (speeding up the invisibility powerup). Again, the movie is presented in a clean, easy-to-understand manner. It's available in both QuickTime (13.3 mb) and DivX (15.7 mb) formats, and [-GTC-] has gone to the effort of setting up mirrors ahead of time. You can find three mirrors (we're one of 'em) on their Advanced Essentials download page. Go grab it! (Louis Wu 16:25:59 UTC) (permalink)

That's just not right.
Hehe - very nice. Sketchfactor points out a new Zoe-created Wallpaper, entitled 'WortWortWortHog', on the Bungie.net Wallpaper page. Nice composition! Thanks, Caligula Caesar. (And thanks, Evil Otto, for the inspiration!) (Louis Wu 01:00:23 UTC) (permalink)
