Halo news back Friday, June 17, 2005 Halo news forward

Looking for Internet Cafes with No Spumoni
The Weekly What's Update has been posted already at Bungie.net (thanks, Frankie) - go read it for stuff about what's happening with the hackers using modded Containment/Warlock maps, plus lots of other tidbits. Go read! (Louis Wu 20:30:19 UTC) (permalink)

That's a LOT of people.
Wow - this one's unusual. Laird, from Sponsors vs Freeloaders, sent along a rather large request. Easier to simply quote him (with a few typo corrections):

In the footsteps that of episode 8, I am taking auditions for Freeloaders for episode 9. So if you're looking for a role on SvF please feel free to send an audition to laird@sponsorsvsfreeloaders.com (Note all auditions need to be adlibbed, a normal format (Mp3, wav, ogg), and be yourself (different voices etc...) Please don't alter your voice recordings in anyway so we can judge it in its raw format.)

Wow - they're looking for 50 actors. Go audition! (Louis Wu 20:19:44 UTC) (permalink)

Infectious.
When in doubt, pun really badly. That's Stuntmutt's motto, nicely demonstrated in today's One One Se7en. (Louis Wu 16:47:12 UTC) (permalink)

Bah. Humbug.
Yeah, Fanfic is offline again. Yeah, it's being worked on. No, it won't be up before tomorrow. Yes, a long-term solution is in the works. Yes, the fastest way to really annoy me is to post snide comments about how this section is always down on our forum. That is all. (Louis Wu 16:45:17 UTC) (permalink)

Get close enough to kiss 'em!
Another batch of dialogue snippets from Captain Spark - once again, you can snag 'em in bulk from his website, or browse the new ones in our Dialogue Databank. (Louis Wu 15:57:06 UTC) (permalink)

Farewell - a montage
A week ago, rywateska posted a note on our forum about a montage vid he put together, to commemorate his need to leave the Halo 2 community. It was hosted over at cheapassgamer.com (still is, in fact) - but he then submitted it to our Movie Peer Review Rating System. The reviewers liked it - an impressive feat these days for a montage vid. Great timing, nice music, decent video quality. We're releasing two versions - a QuickTime (44.2 mb, bungie.org | mythica.org) and a WMP9 (45.8 mb, mythica.org | bungie.org). If you haven't already seen this, grab it now!

Dual Wielded.
Today's Halo Babies comic needs no real writeup. Or, maybe more accurately, any writeup I do will simply be digging a deeper hole. (Louis Wu 12:23:26 UTC) (permalink)

Grenade Collecting for Dummies.
Awesome. Over at High Impact Halo, Dark Helmet has created a fantastic tutorial vid showing how to collect grenades for Halo 1 grenade jumping - not just the basics, but how to make a really nice, tight pile. Soundtrack is from South Park, and deserves a NSFW warning. 29.4 mb, WMP9 format. For the heck of it, I've added a QuickTime version - 28 mb - as well. (I wrote this up about 8 hours ago, but somehow forgot to post it. Duh.) (Louis Wu 02:28:00 UTC) (permalink)
