The Art Floodgates Open Once again, I've let an absurdly long period of time go by without cleaning out our uploads queue. There will likely be more content later today or later this week - but for now, we've got several dozen images for you in the Miscellaneous Art section. Paul Davies continues to astound me, but there are plenty of other amazing artists in this batch - go see what you can find! (Louis Wu 19:45:40 UTC) (permalink)
Xbox 180. A large percentage of the gaming news in the last couple of days has been about the Xbox360 (we're staying relatively quiet on the general bits, because they're not really Halo-related)... the part that IS Halo-related is the backwards-compatibility thing. Stuntmutt takes a look in today's One One Se7en. (Louis Wu 17:35:48 UTC) (permalink)
BoB Zero: Genesis The MPRRS reviewers have been pretty harsh of late - so when they let a movie through, it's probably worth watching. First one through in a while is 'BoB Zero: Genesis', the prequel to a popular French machinima series (you can find more of their work on the TGO Team website). Filmed in Halo (as opposed to Halo 2), it combines nice camera work, good humor, and decent audio. This version is in French, with English subtitles. Grab it in WMP9 format (49.3 mb) or QuickTime format (45.2 mb). Bon Appetit! (Louis Wu 17:06:00 UTC) (permalink)

Check it out! Update (16 April 2006): Ghost has moved this to a permanent home at Halomaps. (Louis Wu 06:38:28 UTC) (permalink)
IGN looks at Halo 2 on a 360 There's a story over at IGN about cross-compatibility between the Xbox360 and the original Xbox when playing Halo 2. Their verdict: the 360 plays Halo 2 beautifully, but there might be some joining glitches when playing games involving both boxes. Read the whole article for details. (And remember, this is a single data point; others might have a completely different experience.) (Louis Wu 06:35:34 UTC) (permalink)
Don't follow Frankie's Japan links. Frankie wrote up his experiences at the Xbox360 Launch Event in the Mojave desert. Nice pics, funny stuff (I wish I could meet the guy who's got his Cliffy B autograph), a little bit of Halo content to keep it all on-topic. Go read! (Yeah, he gets credit for the heads-up, too... good thing he got his butt kicked at Halo 2 at the event.) (Louis Wu 06:31:55 UTC) (permalink)
