retinence (nee reticence) was last seen in July, when he showed off his first Elite Bionicle. He's back, with a new one - check out the Honorable and True poses at DeviantART. Again, use the 'Download' link there to grab high-res versions. He's even included full instructions, so you can build your own. Nice work! Update: he's posted a clearer picture here.

Twenty Four.
Today's One One Se7en Advent offering provides succinct commentary on... well, a few things. (I happen to disagree with the punchline, but that doesn't make it any less funny. Or, for that matter, funnier.) (Louis Wu 18:06:17 UTC) (permalink)

blip.tv has an interview with Jeff Bell, Microsoft's VP of Global Marketing, recorded at the Word-of-Mouth Marketing Association's Summit 3 in mid-November. He discusses Halo 3's launch, and what it means for other products - and it's a little scary, if you're not a marketing person. (Louis Wu 15:30:40 UTC) (permalink)
Dean's Top Ten
Dean Takahashi posted his Top Ten Games of 2007 - Halo 3 came in #3 (he said the only reason it wasn't first was because of originality, and "that's the problem when you're building off such a solid base from the earlier games." Yeah, Bungie, next time start with crap, okay?

The Fine Art of Suiciding
Heh - this is pretty cool; Evlmidget25 built a Foundry map in which he and a plasma grenade start at the same point, take entirely different paths, and end at the same point. It's a pretty complicated suicide. Check it out! (Louis Wu 12:10:49 UTC) (permalink)

Planet Halo's mrtitan has written up a short review of the Heroic Map Pack - looks like it wasn't a particularly good buy for him. (He liked Standoff, found Rat's Nest fair, and hated Foundry.) Your mileage may vary. (Louis Wu 12:00:07 UTC) (permalink)

Waste Not, Want Not
Elnea's posted Episode 104 of her Halo Action Figure Theater - I'm feeling a little bad for Lois at this point. For the zombie guy, though... not so much. Take a look! (Louis Wu 11:44:12 UTC) (permalink)
