Hi-Res CA Screens
Phan7om noticed that Certain Affinity's website is hosting very high resolution versions of the two new screenshots - 3480x2106 pixels apiece, to be exact. Nice! (Louis Wu 19:45:03 UTC) (permalink)
Biting the Hand
Red vs Episode 93 has now been posted for sponsors. (As always, it'll be up for the general public in a few days.) This won't make a lot of sense if you've never watched the Out of Mind series they posted on Marketplace last year; all 5 episodes are available in their video archive, if you haven't seen them yet. Also, the Reds find some stuff. And accidentally make fun of Bungie's storytelling techniques. (Louis Wu 12:07:45 UTC) (permalink)
Fan-made HEH
NeuroKoNeza had been working on a remake of Hang 'Em High for Halo2Vista - he was shooting for a Colossus-type environment. You can see a couple of shots of his work in progress over on the Gearbox forums - looks like he's not sure whether to continue work, or simply let the Bungie version step in.

A cautionary tale...
A high school student in Michigan spent 9 months organizing a Halo tournament to be held on school grounds. He did everything right; he talked to school officials, he organized parents and teachers to act as chaperones, he advertised both in-school and out. All was copacetic - until 4 days before the event. His dad contacted the local police to inquire about the availability of a uniformed officer to provide security (they were expecting in excess of 300 people); with just a couple of days to go, and $650 out of pocket for the teenaged organizer, the tournament was shut down. Ouch! Read the details in the Ann Arbor News. (Louis Wu 11:34:38 UTC) (permalink)
Blast from the Past
Teen Ink has reviewed the Halo 2 Original Soundtrack, Volume 1. At least, it LOOKS like a new review... (Louis Wu 11:29:47 UTC) (permalink)
When Bloggers Get Bored
Last weekend, we posted a link to an article at Unconfirmed Sources - it was clearly parody, but at the time I thought it was a one-off. I was wrong. They've got a followup. (Louis Wu 11:25:58 UTC) (permalink)
DPAD looks at MLG 2007
GotFrag posted an article looking at the changes in the MLG rules and gametypes, and how those might affect the standings in the upcoming season. Go read! (Louis Wu 11:23:02 UTC) (permalink)
The Voices Trailer
QuickTactical pointed out a trailer for 'The Voices', a machinima series coming out in a few months. It's... odd. (Louis Wu 11:18:44 UTC) (permalink)
MLG Interviews XiT
XiT Woundz is one of the pro squads that did some major rearranging with their roster after the end of last season - they're back, and rarin' to go for Charlotte with two new players, and you can see what they're thinking in a new interview at MLGPro.com. Thanks, Tyger. (Louis Wu 11:14:44 UTC) (permalink)
Medals We Could Use
Mister Froggy has posted Halo, Articulated #26 - methinks he had some bad experiences in MatchMaking recently. (Louis Wu 11:10:50 UTC) (permalink)
