LANtasy Island - De Game, Boss, De Game!
Couple of new bits at Tied the Leader this week - a writeup of a huge LAN put on by 2old2play, and an invitation to a TTL LAN in Chicago coming up over Labor Day weekend. Check it out! Thanks, XerxdeeJ. (Louis Wu 20:40:51 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Director Announced
Wow... according to Xbox.com, a director has been chosen for the Halo movie... and it's a newcomer. Neill Blomkamp, who has a history of short films and commercial ads, will direct the Halo film as his first full-length big-screen project. Intriguing choice! Cornballer was first to our forum with the news. (Update: Whoops, looks like the Xbox.com page has been pulled. I guess that means that the unconfirmed nature of this bit is now even more firmly unconfirmed. Or something. - mnem) (Louis Wu 16:58:28 UTC) (permalink)
Ain't so tough now, are you?
Heh... the 'I'm a Mac, I'm a PC' style parodies have now extended to Halo machinima - thanks, Ename Nep. (Louis Wu 16:05:11 UTC) (permalink)
Promotional Video Contest
A fan-run contest on the Bungie.net forums asks for your best promotional video of a Bungie product - prizes are cold, hard cash. ($50, $30, and $20 for 1st, 2nd, 3rd respectively.) Three of your options (Halo, Halo 2, and Halo 3) are Halo-related, warranting this news post. Thanks again, KP. (To be clear: Bungie is not running this contest - it's fan-driven. Questions should go in the forum thread, not to Bungie.) (Louis Wu 13:25:43 UTC) (permalink)
Scribblings on your Chest
Looks like you can now buy that Mister Chief shirt that's been visible in a few places recently... i hear Frankie gets a cut of every sale, to be used for art lessons. Thanks to KP at Bungie.net for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 13:21:41 UTC) (permalink)

There's something wrong with those...
NeuroKoNeza stopped by to point out a rather bizarre HaloCE creation... evil Teletubbies in a death arena. Wow. (Louis Wu 11:56:31 UTC) (permalink)
She's gonna need help.
Rooster Teeth has posted Out of Mind Part II for sponsors; if you don't have a 360 and haven't seen this on XBL Marketplace, this episode begins to give you real background on Tex's origins. It'll be available to the general public later this week. Burnie was first, on the RvB forum, but Hawaiian Pig is to be thanked for making it public on our forum. (Louis Wu 11:53:24 UTC) (permalink)
