A swift defeat full of idiots Broken Console Productions have posted Episode 7 of their 'Squadron' Machinima - it's available in both WMP9 (16.6 mb) and QuickTime (16.9 mb) formats. The squadron is... running into trouble. As usual, high-quality workmanship all around... go watch! (Louis Wu 20:43:04 UTC) (permalink)
Leaderboards out - Team Hardcore in It's official - as of now, the Leaderboards on Bungie.net are gone. Also, the Team Hardcore playlist should be live very, very soon. (As in, later this afternoon.) Here's hoping that the level of cheating goes down, now that there's much less to be gained! (Louis Wu 19:19:53 UTC) (permalink)
Hey La, Hey La The Stubbs the Zombie site was updated yesterday (in honor of the game's Xbox release) with a fantastic trailer of 'My Boyfriend's Back' by the Raveonettes. Disco Zombies... it don't GET any better'n that. Thanks, Karri. (Louis Wu 14:50:24 UTC) (permalink)
Wedow's Montage Preview Z points out a nice montage trailer over at Halo2Forum.com - 58 mb, WMP9 format, really clear footage. Give it a look! (Louis Wu 14:44:50 UTC) (permalink)
MasterSurfer Dave Cheung, of Chugworth Academy, is worried about what having Peter Jackson on board might mean for a Halo movie. Check the image linked at the bottom of the news post on this page for a graphical depiction of his fear. Thanks, Kaari Koehn. (Louis Wu 14:20:16 UTC) (permalink)
RoP 2005 - Best Villain The Best Villain nominees (and winner) have been posted over at the Rockets on Prisoner Awards site - thanks to Spartan 777 for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 13:36:54 UTC) (permalink)
McDonalds, Cheetos, and Teabags. Frankie wrote up a summary of statistics about Halo 2 on Xbox Live - and while it's chock-full of the normal things you'd expect (like what percentage of arranged games are played on each map), it's also got just plain silly stats, like how much money would have been earned if every hour spent playing matchmaking had been spent, instead, earning minimum wage, or how much you'd make if you had a nickel for every game, or how close to Reach you'd get if you stacked a penny for every second played. (Well, maybe not that last one. But that's only because he didn't think of it.) He's also inordinately proud of beating everyone to the punch with the news - cause yeah, he POSTED it. But he's like that. Go read. Update: Skavenger found a few more facts you might be interested in... (Louis Wu 01:47:13 UTC) (permalink)
