'Shees, no crackers
PEZ writes to point out that the Issue of the Week this week at halowiki.net is the Banshee. If you know stuff about it - go see if it's already there. If it's not... add it! (Louis Wu 22:08:45 UTC) (permalink)
Worst Case Scenario
Paul Maestri has a bone to pick with EA - check it out in the latest Halo Heads. (Me, personally - I know where my first 300 points would go...) (Louis Wu 20:12:15 UTC) (permalink)
Carbon and Str8 Rippin get contracts
Looks like MLG is expanding the number of pro gaming contracts it's offering; 6 months ago, they laid out $1.25 million for 5 players, and today there's another $1.75 million up for 7 more players - the full teams of Final Boss, Carbon, and Str8 Rippin are now fully covered by MLG contracts. Thanks (again) to JeBr0nie for noticing. (Louis Wu 19:43:32 UTC) (permalink)

Why, Gunns, what big teeth you have!
RVideo swapped out some other biped models, again demonstrating that the lip-synching is stored with the dialogue, and not strictly with the character model. (There's a more complete description in this post.) As RVideo says - it's not really hard to do this, but the results are pretty cool! (Louis Wu 14:34:57 UTC) (permalink)
A Legendary Back
GothicSlayer stopped by to show off the beginnings of his Halo tattoo - I gotta say, that's dedication! It's just an outline right now (even so, it's pretty impressive), but as he gets the time/money for more details, he'll post updates. (I would suggest that he NOT try Stuntmutt's 4th pickup line suggestion. (Louis Wu 14:15:18 UTC) (permalink)
