Mad World
Hellhawk stopped by this morning with an announcement of a new vid - a music video set to Gary Jules' version of Tears for Fears' 'Mad World'. Very nice synching of Halo action to the song's powerful lyrics - nice job! I was unhappy with the interlacing on the video, though, so I fixed it. You can download the original in Hellhawk's forum post (QuickTime, 34.6 mb), or you can grab versions from us (QuickTime, 34.3 mb or WMP9, 32.4 mb). Either way, give this a look-see; it's a high-quality vid. (Louis Wu 22:03:54 UTC) (permalink)
New Map Pack Release from CMT
Over at Bungie.net, there's news of a new map pack release from the Halo:CE mod group CMT. Four new maps, with custom HUD, new weapons, and more. You can find screenshots and download links on the H2Vista.net forum. Thanks to newDeviLedeT1 for the heads-up. Update: In case the CMT website goes down (180 mb download + bungie.net mention = lots and lots and lots of bandwidth), Dennis Powers, of Halo Maps, has mirrored the maps themselves, and has the bandwidth to withstand the blast.

Halo Dos
IXI CHAM IXI stopped by our forum to let us know about a Halo song created by his cousins Aphrolyph: Sonsketched and Entellekt; it's called 'Halo Dos', and though I'm not particularly a fan of rap, this is pretty well done. We've put up a local copy if you're not excited about waiting for FileFront - it's 2.9 mb, in MP3 format. Give it a listen! (Louis Wu 17:48:35 UTC) (permalink)
More Allies = More Baddie Carnage
Rockslider has written up a nice method for doubling the number of allies you have during the Grav Lift fight on Truth and Reconciliation - thanks to Two Finger for the suggestion! Take a look. (Louis Wu 17:17:21 UTC) (permalink)
Blasts from the Past
Happy New Year, from the Halo Story Page crew! Jillybean has rooted through the mailbag, and come up with a bunch of Halo-Marathon connection theories (and some other stuff). Go read! (Louis Wu 17:15:40 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3's Shield Bubble
Over at the Halo 3 Data Archive, there's an article about the shield bubble from Halo 3 (visible in the Halo 3 Commercial), and how it might be implemented, and controlled, in-game. There are a lot of assumptions (and frankly, some circular reasoning), but the fact is, Bungie hasn't given us much to go on yet, and this article does its best to make the most of what we DO have. Go read it, and toss in your own two cents! Thanks, Lyca.
