Narc talks to HP
Narcogen, of Rampancy.net, recently sat down with Viper, of HaloPlanet, and discussed Bungie, fansites, and of course Halo - go check out the interview. (Louis Wu 17:25:20 UTC) (permalink)
Best Co-op games, part 2
A couple of weeks ago, IGN posted a 'Best Xbox Co-op Games' article, and not surprisingly, Halo was at the top of the list. Yesterday, they posted a followup article, in which they targeted the most promising upcoming games that will support this style of play. Again, Halo (in this case, Halo 2) is ranked very high. Thanks to EliteMarine, who pointed out that the article existed. (Louis Wu 15:44:18 UTC) (permalink)
Comics AND movies.
Speaking of comics, Trigun writes to say that the second episode of Halo: On Vacation is up at the Seventh Revolution, along with some links to a number of flash movies. See what you can find! (Louis Wu 10:32:15 UTC) (permalink)
MC Buddy opens
The Unknown Spartan sends in a link to his new comic, 'MC Buddy'; I'm not sure I get it, but go read anyway. (Louis Wu 10:26:03 UTC) (permalink)
Don't try meleeing with that...
E.D.P. points out a thread he started on the HaloPlanet forums, showing off a LEGO Battle Rifle he built. Give it a look! (Louis Wu 10:22:36 UTC) (permalink)
The Press are Talking
GameDaily has posted a Hands-on Halo 2 article, based on an afternoon of gameplay in New York a couple of weeks ago. (This was the same event that StrangePurple wrote up for MLGPro.com not too long ago.) Give it a read for some more Halo enthusiasm. (Louis Wu 10:07:19 UTC) (permalink)
The periodic popularity contest
A few people have pointed out the Character Battle between Master Chief and Crash Bandicoot, over at Gamefaqs.com right now... MC has a healthy lead, but you never know. (This is also the first round of a 16-contestant bracket; if MC wins this one, he's got a couple more to go to take the bracket.) Go vote! (Louis Wu 10:02:41 UTC) (permalink)
Halogen - now for TWO games
Dispraiser wrote to let us know that Halogen, the C&C Generals TC, put up a pretty major weekly update recently, announcing some new renders, a Covenant units list, and Halogen for Battle for Middle Earth, a mod for the upcoming Lord of the Rings game. This is not a port - it's a separate mod that will use the same models as Halogen for C&C Generals, but will focus on different sorts of fighting. Read the update for more details.

Clashing Armor and Man Hugs
Frankie's in the Yucatan this weekend, hiding from hurricanes and looking for nuclear weapons, so the job of Bungie Weekly Update fell to Bungie Princess Alta Hartmann. It's a bit light on the technical aspects, with maybe a little too much emphasis on personal appearance... but hey, what can you expect from someone who just kicked some serious butt in her first keg stand contest a few weeks ago? (As you read about overloaded taco trays and hair dye, just think of Alta being hung upside down over a keg, drinking college boys twice her weight under the table... and cut her some slack.)
