Blah blah blah blah blah!
Captain Spark whipped out another 30 unique dialogue snippets - you can grab the lot in zipped format on his website, or view them individually in our Dialogue Databank. (Louis Wu 20:45:19 UTC) (permalink)
Where's The Beef?
What happens when plasma grenades fall in love? What's a tynosaur, and why should you run from it? What ARE popcorn shrimp, anyway? These questions, and many more (as well as a mini-melee montage) can all be found in the latest video release from PraetoriaGuard's website - hit 'Downloads', and grab Video Three, "Where's The Beef?", in either WMP9 Advanced or WMP9 Standard formats (thanks, Gideon, for taking care of the Mac crowd!). A bit over 22 mb, in either format - 8 minutes of hilarity and Cheech and Chong imitations. (Louis Wu 20:21:45 UTC) (permalink)
Strong The Farce Is With This One.
With the release of Revenge of the Sith recently, there's been some silly Star Wars/Halo arguments on our forum (okay, maybe not silly, but... no, silly). Stuntmutt joins in with a new One One Se7en. (To be fair to him, he never really intended this to see the light of day - if it makes you groan, blame me.) (Louis Wu 13:49:55 UTC) (permalink)
28 Days Later
I'm breaking a rule because... well, because I want to. Last night, Jamie98s posted a movie on our forum - it's a remake of 28 Days Later, in the Halo engine. It's 25 minutes long, and does an amazing job of capturing the feel of the film. (It's abridged, clearly - but it uses the audio track from the film married to footage from Halo 2, and stays very true to the atmosphere of the original.) The movie is quite large (73-74 mb, depending on flavor), due to its unusual length. You can find a number of mirror links in Jaime98s's forum post - but most of them are limited in the number of downloads they'll support, so we're putting up several mirrors of our own (the rule I'm breaking is the 'no posting movies without MPRRS approval' rule).
WMP9 (72.5 mb): b.org 1 | mythica.org | b.org 2 | HBO Spartans
QuickTime (73.5 mb): b.org 1 | mythica.org | b.org 2 | HBO Spartans
Go watch this - there's a lot of work put into it! Update: trigger119 has made copies of both versions available at Halomachinima.com, as well. Thanks, trigger! (Louis Wu 13:36:56 UTC) (permalink)
ODST Summer League
sh33p has decided to start a summer league for fun, not rank. Rules are posted at his website, and motivation and basic info can be found in the forum post. If you're looking for an alternative to matchmaking, this might be for you! (Louis Wu 12:50:20 UTC) (permalink)
OlapStats becomes HaloStatsOnline
Cigma posted a note in our forum about OlapStats.com - and how it's become HaloStatsOnline.com. They're still offering basic services for free, but they've added an advanced membership category ($10/year) that gives you extra features. Check the links for more details.
