Confidence is King
Another Halo pro has been profiled over at MLGPro.com - go read why Igamespot's McGavin is so well known in the competitive community. Thanks, 3Suns. (Louis Wu 21:56:00 UTC) (permalink)
Mutated Zombie Farts
Dolbex has written up a solid review of the 5 maps coming out next month, complete with pictures (when he could find them on the web). If you're curious to see what's coming, and how you'll be playing it, swing by MLGPro.com and read this! (Louis Wu 20:42:23 UTC) (permalink)
Dual SM Jeez.
There's a line in the upcoming Killtacular documentary that goes something like "If you need to reload when you're dual-wielding, you're basically screwed." Today's One One Se7en is a perfect illustration of this concept. (Louis Wu 16:19:35 UTC) (permalink)

Guide for MLG Beginners
Hehe - Vapor wrote up a short little guide for surviving in MLG Custom games (mostly for folks who can't). A couple of things I wouldn't have thought of in there (like the fact that even though it takes 4 bursts to the head to take out an opponent with a battle rifle, it STILL only takes 4 bursts if the first three hit the body; only the last needs to hit the head).

Synide's E3 Wrapup
Synide wrote up his experiences at E3 last week over at synide.net (a FANTASTIC read) - and excerpted the plasma fiesta lanfest portion for posting on our own forum. The most interesting part of the excerpt for me - the realization, by someone deeply enmeshed in the competitive scene, that competitive gametypes with people who aren't part of that culture aren't nearly as fun. I realize he'll never convince the hardcore on either side of the issue - but for all the THINKING people, this is something worth reading. There's also a short, very dark video, showing the end of Round One of the ice-cream-eating contest (and why they all brain-froze before it was over). (Louis Wu 14:22:35 UTC) (permalink)
