Taking it all more seriously
F13ND sat down with Saiyan, of Team3D, to discuss the team's performance at the MLG Chicago tournament recently. You can read the result on Team3D's website. (Louis Wu 17:30:25 UTC) (permalink)
The Editing Process
In what has to be one of the more amazingly coincindental bits of timing this week, Chairleg Productions has released a new movie entitled 'The Editing Process' today - you can download WMP9, QT7, and PSP versions from their downloads page. This video focuses on the making of the Halo movie... and if it wasn't for the fact that it actually takes TIME to make a movie like this, I'd swear they used our brand-new Halo Movie Cynics database for its content. It's brilliant - and I don't just say that because I'm in it (sort of). Go watch - and if bandwidth gets tight, we're happy to put up mirrors... this is funny stuff! Update: Rob Armstrong from Chairleg said mirrors were fine - so here you go: WMP9 | QuickTime7 | PSP (Louis Wu 15:19:35 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Maps in Far Cry
GameTrailers has posted a segment of GTtv that focuses on a Far Cry: Instincts fan who's recreated a number of Halo maps for Far Cry: Instincts - the video contains footage of both the Halo versions and their FC counterparts, along with running commentary from the fan. Fun stuff! Thanks, 3Suns. (To view it, you need to visit the Far Cry page at GameTrailers - it's currently the second movie down (labeled 'Halo Maps').) (Louis Wu 15:12:25 UTC) (permalink)
Easiest way to make a new logo...
Heh. In Surfers Paradise, in southern Queensland (east coast of Australia), there's an attraction called 'Spacewalker' - their website, as noticed by lightinfantry, uses an image that is rather familiar to most of us here. (I've taken a screenshot, on the off chance that any legal interest generated by this news post actually makes them alter the site.) You gotta wonder... do people just think that something as big as Halo is simply public domain at this point? (Louis Wu 14:23:39 UTC) (permalink)
Chronicles of Pain - Trailer
Chris Anderson is putting together Chronicles of Pain, a Halo machinima due in February. The teaser for this film passed the MPRRS this morning, so we're passing it on to you. It was originally submitted in QuickTime 7 format (H.264 encoding) - weighs in at 11.5 mb. For those who have trouble with that codec, we're offering a QuickTime Sorenson 3 version (12.7 mb), and a WMP9 version (11.6 mb). Grab the one that works best for you!

Clich to the eh.
Dear beloved HBO... the time has come to let the Halo fans vent their spleen! We all know there's a Halo movie on the horizon... so what keeps you up at night that those unfamiliar with our beloved Halo might wreck? Cortana as the sassy sidekick? The insertion of a BFG in the MC's arsenal? Leonardo DiCaprio as the Master Chief? Andy Serkis overdoing it as a Flood Infection Form? Well, now you have a place to submit your worries. If we feel it's a valid (and competent) entry, it will be accepted and you can share your fears with the rest of Halo fandom. So head on over to The HBO Halo Movie Cynics Database and release the Ari Jacobs within you. And what's up with that treasure chest? We ain't saying! (Ding 03:04:08 UTC) (permalink)
