Can't Touch This. A movie called 'Untouchable', by TheHaloGod, cleared our Movie Peer Review Rating System this morning, with a pretty unprecedented score. It's a montage vid - but the timing is simply astounding, and the music choice is great. As luck would have it, I'm not anywhere near home today (nor will I be for the next couple of days), so the tools available for multiple formats are not what they should be. We're offering the original WMP9 version, 44.7 mb - quality is fantastic. We're also offering a somewhat larger, somewhat lower-quality QuickTime version (49.2 mb) - it's still quite watchable, but not as beautiful as the WMP9. I'd point out the spots that made us all go 'OMG' - but they're more fun to experience on your own. Even if you're pretty jaded with respect to montages, this is worth watching.

You drive the warthog, I'll shoot. Recently, Red vs Blue enhanced their website with a 'Featured User' option - each day, a different member is chosen, and people get to meet someone they might otherwise have overlooked in this community of thousands. Not long ago, one of these Featured Users was Elnea, an eye surgeon who enjoys playing Halo with her son. Exploring her RvB space, I found that she's quite an artist - with a style I really enjoy. She was kind enough to allow us to spotlight her work here - so check out the Art of Elnea, a page that will grow as time goes along. (Louis Wu 15:50:01 UTC) (permalink)
Karl Friedrich... Uh... Too many people can't pronounce important words - it's Stuntmutt to the rescue. Today's One One Se7en is brought to you by the word Gauss and the Number 7. (Louis Wu 15:10:58 UTC) (permalink)
He's gonna need some buffing... We got an art submission this morning that blew me away - I'm not going to have time to process the Miscellaneous Art queue right now, but I thought this should make it out into the community. Mike Hill put together a gorgeous action shot (347K) showing the Master Chief making use of that Warthog winch. He promises more in the future - I'm looking forward to it!

100 Halo Babies has hit 100! The current strip is a lot of fun - and has spawned three new desktops besides. Go read! (Louis Wu 14:08:54 UTC) (permalink)
