Yo' Grunt... That maskless grunt has been the talk of our forums today. Even Sarge is getting into the act - check out One One Se7en. (Louis Wu 15:11:38 UTC) (permalink) 
I'm Living In A Box... Halo: Resolution puts a Spartan in orbit... in a non-regulation orbital device. Good thing that armor can withstand hard vacuum! (Louis Wu 15:09:50 UTC) (permalink) 
Aim above the head, but then a little lower Awesome. A week ago, Chilton mentioned a G4TV program in which John Mayer (the musician) was playing Halo with his friends. The thread didn't go anywhere, because you either have G4 on your cable/satellite system, or you don't. We got mail from Brian Graham, asking us WHY it didn't go anywhere, given that anyone could watch this segment. What...? Well, it turns out that a Mayer fan puts up videos like this on his website; this one is available via BitTorrent, as a 63 mb, 640x480 DivX-encoded clip (6:19 long). It's also available via ftp, if you have trouble with the torrent seed... but that bandwidth is pretty limited, you're FAR better off trying to BT it. It's a really fun piece; he spends some of it talking about the video games he grew up in (and, not surprisingly, the music in them), but the last half is all Halo gameplay/player interaction stuff. He's a pretty funny guy, and this is worth watching. (Louis Wu 11:15:28 UTC) (permalink) 
Links page update Wow. Seems like there was some pent-up demand, that's for sure - in the first day and a half since we posted our link submission form, we've added 50 sites to our Links page. We've had to reject a bunch of entries - folks who submitted sites with no Halo content, or sites that aren't running yet, or Seventh Column chapters - and in a couple of cases, sites which take more than 80% of their content from us, and even go so far as to simply LINK TO OUR VERSIONS of that content, rather than host it locally... but in general, I'd have to say this seems like a rousing success, and one that allows us to add your link to our Links page without the delay incurred by having to wait for me to find time to do this. Keep up the submissions! (Louis Wu 10:58:03 UTC) (permalink) 
That's one nasty dude. We posted a magazine article with a tiny picture of a maskless grunt this afternoon - and people complained that they couldn't really see it. Over on the Halo Story Page, mnemesis has heard your cries, and while he deplores whining, he sometimes enjoys serving up surprises. (Louis Wu 00:03:58 UTC) (permalink)
