Flight of...
Hehe - Roger Wilco seems to be as tired of a certain buzz-inducer as we are. (Louis Wu 15:00:21 UTC) (permalink)
Fire Sale on Bungie Stuff
Want some Bungie schwag, but thought the Bungie Store was a little expensive? Looks like they're moving - and having a fire sale on existing merchandise. Everything's a few bucks off. Buy before August 31, though, because on that day the eCS/Bungie Store closes for good. Read the details on the front page. Thanks to Ross Mills for the first heads-up.

The Monks, The Monks
He'th Baskin really enjoyed the monk chanting in the Halo theme, but was frustrated that it was never by itself. So he mixed his own, 3:32, 4.8 mb mp3 version.
I have listened to as much Halo related music I could get my hands on but was always disappointed to find the monk chanting to be limited and always mixed with other instruments. So I set it upon myself to try and mix and match chant music from different Bungie tracks into a track of its own.
You can listen to it, too - we're hosting it for him. Update: we've replaced the original with a new version that has less noise - he'th spent a couple of hours cleaning it up after release. (Louis Wu 13:39:33 UTC) (permalink)
Copy/Paste, Copy/Paste...
Wow, must be a day for exceptions. Back in March, we closed down the Guest Submissions section of One One Se7en - Stuntmutt himself created Guest Strip 100, and we said 'no more'. Today, however, we've received a strip from Gruntsbane, the artist behind Halo Babies, and his Guest One One Se7en, a tribute to yesterday's 200th strip, was too much fun to leave alone - so I'm reopening the Guest Section for this one last entry. Enjoy! (Louis Wu 12:54:25 UTC) (permalink)
CEAds goes live
We don't normally mention new websites on the front page any more - when we automated the Links section, the flood of new links (well over 100 of them) made that totally unfeasible - but there are always exceptions, and today we have one for you. CEAds, the Halo CE Promotion Project, is a website to show off the best and brightest of Halo CE and to help bring more Halo players to Halo CE. The 'Why Play Halo CE' page details what makes CE superior to PC, listing a good number of Halo CE's new features. It's still new, so content is sparse, but the idea is solid: Halo CE is the future of Halo on a PC, and more people should be playing it. This website will help show you why.
