Mad Cow's Master Chief Suit
Yesterday, Mad Cow posted a teaser pic of his newest Mjolnir armor creation - we've put up a page containing a whole bunch more. You can see progress pics over the last couple of months, and lots and lots of final pics. Go see! (Louis Wu 21:28:41 UTC) (permalink)
Always Listening Jillybean awakes from her Halo 3-induced slumber to post a few bits to the Halo Story page... more coming soon! (Louis Wu 19:53:49 UTC) (permalink)
Guilt O' Lantern - Submissions Closed Late last night, the Guilt O' Lantern submissions window closed; in the next day or three, we'll be posting all valid entries online for your perusal and voting enjoyment. You'll have a week to pick your favorites... and the winners will get some pretty nice schwag bags. I realize this is a bit late to entice new folks to submit - but I just heard this morning that the 343 Guilty Spark recording for the answering service/voicemail will include the option of Steve Downes, the voice of the Master Chief, as well; you get 'em both! As soon as the pics are organized, we'll put up the voting page.

A Portal novel, as the Companion Cube... win.

A ratings issue
It's been a crazy day - no updates so far. Let's see if I can catch up. We'll start with an article over at Gamer Dad, bemoaning a rating system that classes Halo in with games like Manhunt and GTA. (As Achronos pointed out in the thread started by GryphonOsiris, this is most likely due to the Flood, more than bad language or violence against Marines.) Gamer Dad's got a point, though; if we're hoping for reasonable use of a system like the ESRB, the system has to make sense, first and foremost - and Halo's a great example of where it breaks down.
