Chiefman
mtusk is working on a new flash animation/comic based on Halo: Resolution's released sprites. The start can be found at DeviantART. There's not much there yet... but what there is is pretty polished. Check it out! (Louis Wu 17:33:13 UTC) (permalink)
The Majesty of Space
Awesome HUDless widescreen shot of Cairo Station, from the outside, by prometheus. If you like what you see, be SURE to explore the Halouvre - there are more items like this. (Louis Wu 17:27:02 UTC) (permalink)
Not Just for April 1.
Meant to post this earlier this morning - but there's been a lot to do. Posting it now because I need to head out for a few hours, and didn't want to forget. Today's One One Se7en is another apology, of sorts. (Louis Wu 13:24:20 UTC) (permalink)
The Plains of Marathon
Rampancy.net has fired up a new column, called 'A Sistematic Approach' - staffer Sistematic is writing about Halo in the context of older Bungie games. The first column is called 'Marathon Lessons', which looks at Halo 2 and the lessons that can be learned from the first Battle of Marathon (fought in 490 BC). (Louis Wu 13:20:08 UTC) (permalink)
Resurrection Recap, Part 1
The first few writeups of the lanfest here are posted - nukedude put up a bunch of pics, KP blogged it, goatrope got in on the action. I'm sure there'll be more (I've even got some stuff of my own to write this time around)... but this is a decent start. (Louis Wu 10:52:55 UTC) (permalink)
One One Se7en - Still Going
Stuntmutt comes clean - yes, the falling-out last week was an elaborate April Fools joke that took a few days to build up. I, too, would like to apologize to anyone who felt stressed by the idea that One One Se7en would be disappearing any time soon (or worse, would be taken over by me). For those who found Friday's strip unfunny - dang, that was part of the prank! (And for those who found it FUNNY... hmm.) (Louis Wu 10:45:44 UTC) (permalink)
Spring Slaughter - planning underway
AltoDarkNight has put together a web page for the Clan HBO Tournaments in general, and Spring Slaughter: Lively Death 2005, the first tourney, in specific. Rules are up, Round 1 starts next week. Go check it out! (Louis Wu 10:19:50 UTC) (permalink)
teamhalo Halo 2 party

Unfair Advantage
Ross Mills found a Halo-related episode of Reverend Fun today. Halo is even finding its way into Bible humor! (Louis Wu 10:13:05 UTC) (permalink)
Prometheus - the REAL update
While we weren't posting, there was an update that Project Prometheus, the multi-game Halo editor, was cancelled. Turns out it was a belated April Fool's joke. A new update today answers a bunch of questions, and has a small movie showing some of the stuff Prometheus can do. Go check it out! (Louis Wu 10:09:30 UTC) (permalink)
Friends Watcher with Benefits
Ben Hollis points out his new Xbox Live Friends List watcher, XBList. Runs on Windows, displays your Live Friends list in a buddy-list style. Incorporates player emblems, and double-clicking on a friend loads their stats. (Louis Wu 10:02:33 UTC) (permalink)
Time Enough to Consider
Dennis Powers writes to let people know that Episode 9, Time Enough to Consider, of the Halo CE Chronicles has been posted at HaloMaps.org. 8.4 mb, Flash movie format. The Spartan and the AI find the drop pod they've been looking for - and a few things they weren't. (Louis Wu 09:59:37 UTC) (permalink)
Stubbs, Exposed
1UP.com has a sizeable article on Stubbs the Zombie, the upcoming Halo-engined game from Wideload Games. It's a pretty interesting read - go check it out! Thanks, 3Suns. (Louis Wu 09:49:40 UTC) (permalink)
