To John, With Love...
To John, With Love...
Stuntmutt sets his sights on the Halo 2 Vista port in today's One One Se7en. ...yeah. (Louis Wu 14:50:06 UTC) (permalink)
That seems messy - but harmless.
Dojorkan's been playing with unspawned characters again (potential spoilers ahead)... seems like this particular was never used for good reason; why build a bomb shield around a bomb? (Louis Wu 14:39:46 UTC) (permalink)
Jackson/Washington Speculation
Hrm. There are a couple of stories in the New Zealand Press (NZ Herald - thanks, David Warriner | Stuff - thanks, Custard) about Denzel Washington meeting in New Zealand with Peter Jackson about a new movie that Washington is planning to direct, with Jackson providing special effects. We already know that Jackson's planning to provide special effects for the Halo movie - and it doesn't have a director yet. This is not in any way saying that Washington is the new director for the Halo film - the timing seems off, for one thing (the new movie is supposed to be out in two years, which is longer than the original plan for the Halo flick) - but it's something to think about.

End of June, end of the week, time for fanfic
Nineteen new pieces - stories and poems - up for you in the Fan Fiction section today - go see what you can find! (vector40's long-unfinished fanfic (started in December 2004) has its final chapter posted today.) (Louis Wu 13:53:04 UTC) (permalink)
Hi-res Greg Horn
Last year, we mentioned some work by Greg Horn, an artist who created a couple of Halo-related pieces for Toyfare Magazine. Stuntmutt discovered a gallery with very nice higher-res versions of two of his creations - go grab 'em! (Louis Wu 13:27:03 UTC) (permalink)
WSVG PR
We got a press release from the World Series of Video Games folks yesterday - more details about the upcoming tourney (Bungie.net interviewed one of the tourney directors a couple of days ago). Give it a look-see! (Louis Wu 13:19:41 UTC) (permalink)
X-Play says Halo 2 is Tops
A few days ago, HavokBlue mentioned that Halo 2 made the number one spot in an episode of G4's X-Play that looked at the top 10 Xbox games - more recently, it's been posted on their website for online watching. Thanks, rob s. (Louis Wu 13:01:20 UTC) (permalink)
Movers and Shakers
Tsquared, one of MLG's new quarter-million-dollar-contract players, is featured in Stuff magazine, on their 'Power List: 20 under 30' article. Not too shabby! Read about it at MLGPro.com. Thanks, 3Suns. (Louis Wu 12:57:45 UTC) (permalink)
Questions for the Goat
Looks like the Podtacular team is planning to interview Mothergoat in the near future, and is currently taking questions from the public - swing by and add your own! Thanks, Laird. (Louis Wu 12:39:58 UTC) (permalink)
Smudge Games 2006 - Update
A few days ago, we mentioned an online tourney at Halo Jungle - it's got its own website now. (It seems to have some uptime issues, so try again if you find it down.) (Louis Wu 12:35:46 UTC) (permalink)
Humpday challenge within their own ranks
I suppose with nothing better to do, the Bungie team chose to challenge their own B.net moderators. There are no ties in Halo2, get back in there and finish the fight! Worth noting is that I was unknowingly pulled in so they could warm-up on my bloody corpse, of course the game was already underway. (Cybrfrk 03:22:46 UTC) (permalink)
