43 with one blow.
TTL Dren and some friends set up a situation last night in which a single shot with a Spartan Laser garnered him 43 separate medals. Now THAT'S impressive. (It could probably be improved by a few - but please, we're not going to post a dozen "I got 44!" or "I got 47!" notes. The fun part was figuring out to do it in the first place; perfecting it is just engineering.) (Louis Wu 18:09:27 UTC) (permalink)
HAFT finds a new home
On the subject of comics, we're proud to announce that bungie.org has become home to yet ANOTHER Halo comic strip - Elnea's Halo Action Figure Theater can now be found locally. Elnea's done an amazing job of porting over ALL her old HAFT content to a new, easy-to-navigate system based on the ComicPress theme for WordPress - explore, and get lost in this truly bizarre (but surprisingly self-consistent) world!

It IS a small world after all
Happy Birthday to ZZoMBiE13! He turns... um, I dunno how old today, but wish him well anyway. His latest installment of Another Halo Comic Strip melds Halo with Disney's Fantasia... and it rocks. (He's also posted an email address, if you need to reach him; it's been available, subtly, at the bottom of his comic for quite a while, but now it's obvious.) (Louis Wu 17:09:34 UTC) (permalink)
Cutscene Desktops
cheapLEY took a bunch of nice shots in cutscenes, for use as desktop images; you can find some in this post, and more in this one. Nice work! (Louis Wu 17:06:03 UTC) (permalink)
Looking back on the lessons of Halo 3
GameCareerGuide.com has an article entitled 'How Halo 3 Changed Game Development' - I'm not sure it did what it set out to do (which was to show that Bungie's handling of Halo 3 has changed how games will be developed in the future), but it IS a nice summary of how well Bungie delivered on the promises it made (and others made in Bungie's name) with respect to Halo 3. I found this at Gamasutra. (Louis Wu 16:56:17 UTC) (permalink)
Working for the Man
Almost certainly not Halo news (heh), but Psychophan7 noticed a bunch of new job openings on Bungie's website. Are you good enough? (Louis Wu 16:45:33 UTC) (permalink)
McFarlane Series 2 Figures Unveiled
Entertainment Earth has pictures of the next wave of McFarlane collectibles - Check out the Tan EOD Spartan, Tan Scout Spartan, Brute Stalker, Drone, ODST, Red CQB Spartan, and White EVA Spartan. These'll be here in July, so get your wallet ready! Google was fastest with this news, but Brian Curry wasn't far behind. (Louis Wu 16:30:13 UTC) (permalink)
A Halo 3 Gaming Chair
Hawty McBloggy was the first to point out Kotaku's coverage of a new variant of Ace Bayou's X Rocker chair, being shown at CES this week - if you must game in Halo colors, this chair is for you. There's no real info on price yet. (Louis Wu 15:58:36 UTC) (permalink)
