Inside The Helmet
There's a new Livejournal to read - this one is called 'SPARTAN Updates'. It's updated semi-daily (author's terminology), and looks at the day-to-day life of John-117. In light of the negative feelings generated by some peripheral issues with the whole Enkidu presentation, I'd like to make a few things clear:
- This is not being written by anyone at Bungie, or anyone at Bungie.org
- The inclusion of a bungie.org email address for responses is simply to hide the identity of the original author, and does not in any way suggest that this is 'official'
- The inclusion of a bungie.org address does not in any way imply that these are available to anyone who asks
All that said, go and read! (Louis Wu 16:56:42 UTC) (permalink)
Cheap Halo for Auction in GB
Matt_117 points out an interesting eBay auction; you can order a new and sealed copy of Halo 2 for £19.99, free shipping, delivered, VAT included, in your hands within 2 weeks of November 9. If you're on a budget, and live in Great Britain, this might be worth looking at. (Louis Wu 15:17:35 UTC) (permalink)

QuickTime Banshees
Yesterday, we mentioned a movie posted by Ducain, showing the Object Overload technique used on the Maw to grab a banshee in Single Player mode. I'd mentioned that a QuickTime version could be made available if needed - a number of people have emailed about this, so you can grab a copy on files.bungie.org. Also, there was a post by Ducain explaining a few things about the movie (including the astounding fact that it took him 5 hours of continual Flood-killing to cause the overload) that is worth reading, for those interested in the technique. Wow! (Louis Wu 14:42:41 UTC) (permalink)
The Media Blitz Commences
tLove scanned a 2-page ad for Halo 2 from the current issue of EGM. It's not very high-resolution, but it doesn't need to be; it gets its point across quite
nicely at any size. (We figure free advertising isn't gonna bother ANYONE, which is why we're okay posting scans from a current issue.) Update: Oops, this was double-posted, and the second post got lots more replies. If you want to contribute, this might be a better thread. (Louis Wu 03:24:24 UTC) (permalink)
You take the Leyk. I look and look at it.
We got a nice note from Tina Leyk this evening, letting us know about a couple of updates on her website; we've added the relevant art to her collections here. There's a new wallpaper using the Fur-Lo characters; you can find it on the Fur-Lo page. There's also a great sketch of an Elite bust on the Fan Art page. This woman ROCKS.
