Noobs Guide to Halo 2 Flanking F13ND has posted the next installment of his 'Noobs Guide' over at Team3D - this one gives some tips on flanking, with the help of Saiyan. If you didn't get this the first time around, this guide is NOT for noobs - it's for anyone looking to improve their gameplay, by focusing on advanced strategy tips. (In fact... it can't even be USED by noobs, since the descriptions and techniques that are suggested tend to be things that beginners would have no clue about.) That said - these are great reads. Go check this one out. (Louis Wu 22:07:05 UTC) (permalink) 
Action Figure Update Looks like you can buy all the Series 4 action figures directly from the Bungie Store. (You can buy them from a lot of places - but the profit from the Bungie store goes towards the World Domination effort.) Thanks, LegendaryMark. (Louis Wu 16:06:28 UTC) (permalink) 
Halo 2 and dating not compatible The South Dakota State University Collegian has an article on why Halo 2 might be losing you dates. Duh. (Of course, this doesn't apply if your girlfriend plays Halo...) (Louis Wu 16:03:55 UTC) (permalink) 
Halo2Forum Video Mania Four new movies at Halo2Forum today - The Last Man Standing (12.7 mb) is a Halo 1 story summed up by its title, and there's a montage trailer from Domain Productions (21 mb), a demo of a mod that turns Banshees in to X-Wing fighters (28.3 mb), and a montage/gameplay vid from OscarMayerNinja (73 mb), where games are broken into 'missions'; there's less cutting, and more fast-forwarding. All vids except the domain productions vid are in WMP9 format - that one is .AVI. (Louis Wu 15:59:21 UTC) (permalink) 
Age != Maturity Normally, there's enough content over the course of a week that the Tied The Leader Halo blog gets a single wrapup mention. We got mail from 3Suns, though, suggesting that a new article, 'Open Letter to the Timothy', deserved a mention of its own. Upon reading, I'd agree. XerxdeeJ points out that not every young player deserves to be lumped in with the screaming 'Timothys' made famous by 2old2play - sometimes, having young 'uns on your (older) team can be a good thing. Go read. (Louis Wu 15:29:08 UTC) (permalink) 
Lothar Halo The current episode of Exterminatus Now (a webcomic) contains some game-related wallpapers in the text writeup (scroll down to the bottom) - the Lothar Hex paper is Halo-related. (Pretty cool, too.) Thanks to Hanchen Lu for the heads-up (we heard from Lothar Hex, as well, but he was about 6 hours behind). (Louis Wu 15:17:33 UTC) (permalink)
