Extreme Halo
Teehee... Chilton Webb points out the stuntrider on the far right of this concept art. Who says Bungie's not expecting you to have fun? (Louis Wu 18:43:52 UTC) (permalink)
Be careful what you wish for.
Calvin and Halo shows why it's not always a good idea to try and outsmart your parents. (Louis Wu 16:56:43 UTC) (permalink)
RvB Administrivia
Quick note for Red vs Blue Super Sponsors; you should check the Sponsors page for a link to a 'Subscription Serviecs Manager' - you need to make sure they have the right address by June 30. They're printing mailing labels on July 1, and you won't be able to change things after that. (Louis Wu 16:52:54 UTC) (permalink)
Screenshots - the lifeblood of he who waits
The recent release of new hi-res screenshots from Bungie finally got me off my duff to update our Screenshots database; it's finally up-to-date. 193 shots were added today... not a bad day's work! (Louis Wu 16:23:37 UTC) (permalink)
Speculation and Innuendo
mnemesis sent word that he's updated the Halo Story Page again - it's a big 'un. He's been impressed recently with the quality of submissions... keep it up, folks! Update: And Wado explains WHY the quality is up. (Louis Wu 10:28:11 UTC) (permalink)
Links Update - again
Because of the massive influx of new sites in our Links database, we've added a small 'New' graphic to indicate when a site's been added in the last week. (Thanks, Paul!) It seems some of you haven't noticed that your site was added, and submitted again... maybe this will help. (Louis Wu 10:13:29 UTC) (permalink)
New Mombasa gameplay - in a vid
Blade, at Teamhalo.net, put together a 6:26 long video (WMP9 format) showing gameplay on the upcoming New Mombasa map, using the Halo 2 Mod. (This is a huge team effort from a lot of talented people that mostly hang out on the Gearbox forums - a recent update on the project can be found here.) Blade's movie is available in both high (640x480, 35.1 mb) and low (320x240, 15.4 mb) versions. His video card doesn't really do the map the justice it deserves... but you can certainly get a great flavor of its size and scope, as well as how the new weapons work. Registration (free) is required for download. (Louis Wu 03:00:16 UTC) (permalink)
Behind the scenes - Magazine Pimpage
Wow. Frankie has posted an awesome interview/picture cornucopia over on Bungie.net; a discussion with Jeremy Zoss, Associate Editor of Game Informer magazine (about GI's visit to Bungie in preparation of last month's article), and a collection of more than a dozen VERY high resolution images (screenshots and concept art) that were eventually used in the story. If you've read the magazine (or our press scan), you've seen the pictures... but not like this. Go read! First heads-up seems to be from Wolfy, of Sector 7. (Louis Wu 02:38:50 UTC) (permalink)
