NSCS grows by 4 new articles
There are four new articles up in the Articles and Extras section of Overswarm's Not So Common Sense guide. You'll find pieces on Team Organization and Communication, as well as reviews of the Maptacular Map Pack and the training website Console Pro. Check it all out! (Louis Wu 22:45:43 UTC) (permalink)
IGS talks to MLG
The MLG interviews just keep coming - this time, it's the IGameSpot team (second place in MLG St. Louis, formerly Legendz. They talk about their performance in STL, and what's next for the members. Thanks again, 3Suns. (Louis Wu 20:25:04 UTC) (permalink)
Map Pack Reviews
Both IGN and TeamXbox have released reviews of the Maptacular Map Pack - if you're still not sure if you should pick 'em up, read these. (Louis Wu 17:07:05 UTC) (permalink)
MLG Vegas
MLGPro.com has posted info about MLG Las Vegas, coming August 12-14. There's a slight twist to this one - each room needs to be booked (and checked into) by someone over 21 - this is Nevada state law. Beyond that, though - looks to be a fun event! Thanks to Ecko, from HaloPlanet, for pointing it out. (Louis Wu 15:11:47 UTC) (permalink)
Be still, me beating heart.
Captain Spark finally got the IWHBYD skull to work successfully - and man, does it help produce some funny dialogue. The first couple of dozen snippets were released today - you can snag 'em at his website, or browse through them in our Dialogue Databank. Awesome stuff! (Louis Wu 15:01:43 UTC) (permalink)
HHU4LQ
Nirvana has re-encoded low-res versions of the Hollywood Halo Update 4 vid released a few days ago - if 87 mb was too much for you, grab the ~30 mb versions he's made. (Louis Wu 14:37:45 UTC) (permalink)
Video Games Live - a great show
Last night was the kickoff event for Video Games Live, and it seems to have been quite a success. The LA Philharmonic performed music from many video games - and the finale was Halo 2. Marty O'Donnell and Mike Salvatori were on hand and available for questions and autographs - once again, Marty suggested taht the Halo 2 Soundtrack is being held up by MS lawyers at this point. Thanks to NSA, Reinsoft, and mnemesis, who sent in email or posted to our forum with tidbits. If you get the chance to see this show elsewhere in the US this summer... go.

Freelancer Mod - In Trouble
We've mentioned a Freelancer Halo mod a couple of times - seems they've stalled for lack of help. (This will be the last of this type of 'please visit' posts we put up for this project.) They've got a screenshot of their 'slipspace effect' graphics - except without Halo models so far. If you're interested in seeing this mod succeed, go visit. (Louis Wu 14:14:27 UTC) (permalink)
Mmm... cake.
Wortrow celebrated the Halo/Halo 2 transition by eating. Good idea! (Louis Wu 13:52:15 UTC) (permalink)
