Original HGN artwork - for sale on eBay? Wow. I have no idea about the background of this seller, or whether this is normal for this industry - but it seems like a pretty awesome opportunity for the right collector. BARBARIC_RAGE noticed an eBay auction, ending tomorrow night, for what purports to be a page of the original Simon Bisley artwork used in the Halo Graphic Novel. Gorgeous! If we get more info on this, we'll pass it along. (Louis Wu 22:09:25 UTC) (permalink)
Same Great Hero, Brand New Flavor ChrisVioxxx stumbled across this online ad as he was websurfing yesterday - while I find it hilarious, I have the same problem Chris has - I have trouble seeing anyone with the authority to authorize this actually doing so. Which would suggest, funny as it is, look quick, cause it won't be around for long. (Louis Wu 22:00:33 UTC) (permalink)
The Film's Shot. So this weekend's big news was the pullout of Universal and Fox as backers for the Halo film. What does Stuntmutt get out of it all? A pun so bad it made me groan louder than this blasted pneumonia. Read today's One One Se7en if you want to see it for yourself. (Louis Wu 15:11:05 UTC) (permalink)
Shooting for total accuracy. Devin White has been hard at work creating a Spartan helmet - he's done a pretty amazing job! Check out some pics on this page. (Louis Wu 15:04:25 UTC) (permalink)
NYC Halo 2 Tourney, Nov 11 Tnl Alex posted details of a New York City tourney on our forum this morning - FFA, 2v2 and 4v4, coming up on November 11. Entry fee is $10/pp for the FFA, $15/pp for the team games, with the pot being split up between the top three winners. Go read the forum post for more details! (Louis Wu 14:00:16 UTC) (permalink)
All she needs is a shotgun. KP continues with his IM interviews of community members - this time, he snagged Zoom Demon, of the Cayote Cavegirls, for a pleasant little monitor-side chat over sandwiches and rice and orange chicken. You may think that KP picked Zoom Demon just because she was a hawt chik - but it's not true. There are lots of interesting things going on right now in Cavegirl territory that are worth hearing about - the recent Fight like a Girl tournament, which raised cash for Breast Cancer research, is a great example. Go read the interview! (And then let KP's mom know he's not eating very well out in Washington...) (Louis Wu 13:28:20 UTC) (permalink)
New ODST Comic Ryan - 117 sent us a link to his new online comic - ODST Lock & Load. He's looking for suggestions for the next comic - if you have any, toss 'em in the comments section! (Louis Wu 13:21:42 UTC) (permalink)
GiA - Design your own Halo 3 Vehicle/Weapon Nathan Gibson wrote to let us know that Games in Action is having a competition allowing members to submit designs for Halo 3 Weapons/Vehicles. It should be stressed that this is for fun, and is NOT official (you will NOT see your masterpiece in the final game, for example), but it should be a good time - and there might be prizes available at the end of it all. Read the forum post for more details! (Louis Wu 13:13:07 UTC) (permalink)
Ghosts of Onyx Excerpt in OXM It's been mentioned a number of times in our forum, but I'm not sure I've ever front-paged it; I'm going to do so now, so that the info is here for any to find. The December issue of OXM Magazine has a very large (7 magazine pages) excerpt from the upcoming Ghosts of Onyx book; it's pretty much the entire prologue. I won't spoil it for those who want to read the book in its entirety, but it certainly answers a number of questions floating around about the book in the past few months. If you're worried you won't be able to wait until October 31 to read this stuff... find the mag, there's at least something that might slake your thirst a little. (Louis Wu 13:03:19 UTC) (permalink)
MLG Pro Circuit Teaser Up If you swing by the MLGPro website, you can see a trailer for the upcoming MLG 2006 Pro Circuit TV show, to be aired in a few weeks on USA Networks. For those of us without access to Video on Demand, or simply without the time to follow the pro tour closely - this show should do a wonderful job of bringing the excitement and enthusiasm of the pro circuit to the masses. Check out the trailer! (Louis Wu 12:51:56 UTC) (permalink)
