CROSSFIRE talks to GTV Over at GamingTV, you'll find an interview with CROSSFIRE, of Blood Signature Films. Interesting read! (Louis Wu 21:16:02 UTC) (permalink)
Those poor, poor maps... The new maps have been out for a day... and already, they're being ripped apart. Certain Affinity decided to get around the Superbouncing problem by building insta-killzones into the roof of both maps - but as Ducain points out, folks have already found exceptions. (Dry Ice also found a bizarre little glitch that might come in handy occasionally.) The first egg appeared on Tombstone yesterday morning - descriptions of the item were followed quickly by pictures of it in use; we should be clear that modding is required to hold this item, and it's not actually usable (in the form it appears). More limitations are described nicely by RVideo. And while we're at it, Jordan117 noticed another small egg, as well. You guys are BRUTAL! Update: Narcogen, over at Rampancy.net, clearly did more homework than i did; he found a video demonstrating the glitch Dry Ice mentions, as well as ANOTHER invisible wall near red base. These actually look like bigger problems than I'd originally thought. Hmm... (There are even more weirdnesses to be found in this thread at High Impact Halo.) (Louis Wu 14:28:32 UTC) (permalink)
Cinematic Moments, Part 2 Morpheus pointed out that the next installment of Gamespy's Top 25 Video Game Cinematic Moments is up (we mentioned page 1 yesterday) - and again, Halo takes two of the five spots. At 19, Return To Sender is called 'easiliy [sic] the most memorable scene from Halo 2', and at 17, the Starry Night Halo 3 commercial pumped up the reviewers. Still three days left in the article; can Halo continue its daily showing? (Louis Wu 13:55:46 UTC) (permalink)
New Map Reviews There are a couple of reviews of the two new Certain Affinity maps online - Fyrewulff wrote one for The Platformers, and there's another one up at TeamXbox. Check 'em out! (Louis Wu 13:50:13 UTC) (permalink)
Play Halo 2, Win Stuff Xbox.com is running an All-Nighter this Saturday, April 21; play Halo 2 during the night ("it starts when the sun goes down and ends when it comes back up"), look for select members of Clan PMS and some Xbox Ambassadors (gamertags for all involved are listed on that page), and tell xbox.com what you thought! Randomly selected respondents will win "some sweet old-school Halo swag." (No, we don't know what that means, either.) Thanks to Jman for the heads-up! (Louis Wu 10:30:58 UTC) (permalink)
