The end of a good thing. Captain Spark says he's done collecting Halo 2 dialogue - he's released another 14 snippets that you can grab from his website, or from our Dialogue Databank, but at this point, he's decided that the returns no longer justify the work. We're gonna miss the submissions - go see what he brought you this time! (Louis Wu 19:10:35 UTC) (permalink)
CSports Halo Coverage CSports.net sent us a collection of links to Halo articles they've published recently - there's Present and Future Marine Weaponry, which compares the weaponry in Halo to the weaponry used by today's US Marines, a Halo: Combat Evolved review, which reviews the original version of the game, and a study of the Halo: Race Clans and Community - apparently, there are groups that play together JUST to race. (I can't actually investigate this, since it's a premium feature on the CSports website, but I'll take their word for it.) Go read - they're pretty excited about it all!

Four on One After Stat wrote to point out a video over at Final Supremacy - it's called 'Four on One', and is exactly that - a nicely filmed game of slayer on Lockout, where all of the Blue team except for one quit at the start. I'm not sure where it goes - the resolution isn't nearly as clearcut as I'd expected it to be... but the angles are nice. 67 mb, in MPEG1 format. (Louis Wu 17:00:20 UTC) (permalink)
Church on your 360 Tempus Fugit pointed out an article at TeamXbox about some of the content that will be available on the Live Marketplace when the 360 launches next week - and Red vs Blue videos are among the items you will be able to download. Nice! (Louis Wu 16:55:39 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Turns 4 Today Well, not really... Halo, the GAME, was available on the 9th or 10th of November, 2001... but you didn't have anything to play it on until the 15th. So for all intents and purposes, today is Halo's fourth birthday - and what a run it's been! (Louis Wu 13:35:58 UTC) (permalink)
BTB is sticking around SketchFactor posted an update in last week's Weekly Update (scroll down to the bottom, look for 'EDIT') explaining that because of community outcry, they're NOT going to pull the Big Team Battle playlist from XBL; it will remain, as it is today. (The unranked 16-player playlist they were talking about will not go up right now.) Looks like Anton P. Nym was first. (Louis Wu 13:28:53 UTC) (permalink)
