Fun With Frags
Paul Maestri sends word of Halo Heads 26 - another example of why you should pick your friends more carefully than you pick your nose. (Louis Wu 19:59:10 UTC) (permalink)
A Halo Soldier's Legacy
The Brian Morden foundation has been featured in the Altoona Mirror. For those of you that weren't around, here is a summary of Brian's association with Bungie and Bungie fans. It's good to see the Angels continue the good fight. Many thanks to Dawn, Brian's mom, for the update. (Ding 16:52:37 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 300
bikeman704 remade the trailer for '300' (the film about Sparta based on Frank Miller's graphic novel) using Halo footage - it's all stock, but it's really well put together. (This is a great counterexample for all those people who say that stock footage is yesterday's news.) The 13.6 mb WMP9 version is being hosted by Mythica.org - I'm making a QuickTime version (14.2 mb) available, as well, because I like it a lot. Check it out! (Louis Wu 14:34:51 UTC) (permalink)
Energy Sword for Sale
DHalo noticed an Energy Sword available for purchase on eBay - starting bid is $230, and the auction has 5 days to run. This is the same guy who makes needlers with real crystal (we've mentioned him before) - he's also the guy who won a thousand dollars for his Spartan costume last week. Check it out! The sword looks pretty nice in the dark... (Louis Wu 14:22:17 UTC) (permalink)
While you were sleeping, they were writing
XerxdeeJ stopped by to point out the last week's content at Tied the Leader - and there's quite a bit. You'll find clan profiles of PraetoriaGuard and 2old2play, a 22 Questions interview with Brannon Boren, a rant about Hollywood's inability to see past the beancounting, an admission of weakness, and a rant about quitters. Man, they've been busy! And they have time to play Halo, too? (Louis Wu 14:14:43 UTC) (permalink)
EGM Article Info Summarized
Yesterday, Velez got REALLY lucky and found a copy of the December EGM at a local store (way ahead of when it's supposed to be sold); he's being good and not posting scans, but he did a nice job of summarizing some of the new information available. You're still gonna want to read this on your own (and look at all the pretty pictures)... but the info is really nice. (I didn't post this earlier because it hit Digg.com last night, and I wanted to wait until the bandwidth crunch was over before adding to the load.) (Louis Wu 03:06:34 UTC) (permalink)
XBL FFA Tourney, Nov 25
kdawg15 wrote to point out an FFA tournament coming up on November 25 on XBox Live, run by XM Rated - you can find more details on their forum. Tell 'em kdawg15 sent you! (Louis Wu 02:58:35 UTC) (permalink)
Easter Eggs EVERYWHERE
Heh - the new EU commercial for the Xbox 360, Cops and Robbers, shows some cars with nicely customized license plates. Gears of War, 1106 (wait, that's NOW!), and Halo 3, 07 (sounds about right) - fun homage! Nice catch by Wolverine Monkey. (Screengrabs in this post.) (Louis Wu 02:41:50 UTC) (permalink)
