Uncovered Goodies
Interesting... Finn uncovered an old thread at Bungie.net that ties together some pretty intriguing bits of info about Harvest, and what might (or might not) have happened there... give it a read. Then toss in your own two cents! (Louis Wu 19:37:21 UTC) (permalink)
The Riot 35
Sigafoos points out that The Riot 35 has been released - 19 minutes (7.5 mb) of community news. Highlights include discussion of Halo Everywhere, and a Halo tourney with Risk overtones from Sword of Laban. Go listen! (Louis Wu 19:16:43 UTC) (permalink)

Machines of War, Episode 1
Wow. We got word from SodaGod that he'd released the first episode of a new machinima series, Machines of War. It is the story of Spartan 104, cursed to survive when his comrades do not. This was filmed in Halo 2 Campaign, and the imagery is spectacular; he does an astounding job of getting the perfect shot for the moment. 9:25 long, 77.6 mb in WMP9 format, 78.7 mb in QuickTime format. Absolutely worth a download. Update: trigger119 lets us know that GamingTV is mirroring the WMP9, and has encoded their own h.264 QuickTime (54.7 mb). Great filesize - but be warned, it's pretty processor-intensive; it stutters badly on my dual 2GHz G5. If your processor is beefy, it's probably great.

Frontline with Suzie: Bubble trouble
Rockslider pointed out a new Fronline with Suzie - she interviews an unusual subject, one we can't actually mention on the front page without adding spoiler tags. It's... a rather odd interview. (Louis Wu 15:50:02 UTC) (permalink)

Killzone Rumor Killed
Last week, Luke Smith speculated that Killzone 2 would show up at GDC (in early March), and a playable demo would be released before the Halo 3 beta kicked off. According to Playfuls.com, Sony has killed that rumor - Killzone 2 will NOT be present at GDC, and there will NOT be a playable demo any time soon. Spring will belong to Halo 3, as far as buzz goes... (Louis Wu 14:56:55 UTC) (permalink)
