We will post no Gravemind before its time.
Ack! Almost forgot. Mike Miller's next installment of his Halo 2 Legendary Walkthrough, a look at Gravemind, will not be released today - it's a pretty complicated level, and he wants to make sure it's done right. We're shooting for next week; in the meantime, make sure you're up to snuff on the rest of the finished levels! (Louis Wu 22:05:36 UTC) (permalink)
Searching has never been easier.
Hehe - nice. prometheus has whipped up a Firefox plugin that lets you search HBO's news archive right from your browser's search box! We're flattered. (Well, okay, I'm flattered. I can't imagine the rest of the staff cares.) If you use Firefox, grab this! (Louis Wu 20:03:02 UTC) (permalink)
Noobs Gone Wild 2
Bonekin posted Noobs Gone Wild 2, a humorous look at silly gameplay (mistakes made both by him and by his opponents - everyone's speared equally) yesterday. (Download links are in the forum post.) We've put up mirrors for his WMP9 versions (hi-res | low-res), and added QuickTime versions that are roughly the same quality as his MPEG versions, but half the size (hi-res, 28.6 mb | low-res, 14.1 mb). Grab what makes sense to you! (Louis Wu 19:27:45 UTC) (permalink)
Stuff and Bother (or That Bothers?)
Finn points out an update on 7hr33.bungie.org, with a list of things that could be fixed in Halo 2 multiplay to make gameplay more enjoyable. Agree, disagree... sound off! (Louis Wu 17:48:48 UTC) (permalink)
MLG Orlando, and Foulacy, over at MLGPro.com
New content up over at MLGPro.com - they've posted info about MLG Orlando, a tournament coming up at the end of April, and an interview with Foulacy, of Str8 Rippin, in which Foulacy talks about what happened at MLG Houston, where he thinks the team is going, and some of his strategies. (A good read, overall - if you're interested in being part of the pro community, you NEED to get inside these guys' heads. And if you're not, it's fascinating to see how they approach gameplay.)

Duct Tape... and Newspaper.
Whoa - almost missed this. Minor spoilers, I guess... but pretty darn funny! (Louis Wu 04:03:36 UTC) (permalink)
Earth City, Transcribed
Poop scoop is working on transcribing Earth City, and has created a midi file of it. He's looking for feedback - check his post and give him your ideas! (Louis Wu 03:48:55 UTC) (permalink)
An Open Letter To All Those Who Cheat
I didn't write it. IcedPitchBlack did. You should read it, though. Update: Wow... this seems to have hit a nerve. 165 responses in 11 hours... there are some dissenters, but in general, it seems a LOT of people agree with the sentiment that Halo 2 multiplay should be about FUN, not 'leveling up'.

The Oracle Speaks
mercury joins the Halo blog crew with The Oracle - his first piece looks at cheating in matchmaking. It can be nice to have a place to post a solid, well-thought-out piece, separate from a fast-moving forum... (Louis Wu 03:17:27 UTC) (permalink)
