Pacifism: Evolved
ZZoMBiE13 had some special comments about the Superbowl, kicking off in about 2 hours. Go read Another Halo Comic Strip! (Louis Wu 20:50:00 UTC) (permalink)
The Riot 85
Sigafoos pointed out The Riot 85 - almost half an hour (10.5 mb) of community news, Rock Band discussion, and such. If you watch the video stream, you also get a pretty NSFW comedy clip. (Louis Wu 19:57:16 UTC) (permalink)
Spriggs: Unloaded
Digikid let us know that Spriggs Episode 6 is up for grabs. I gotta say... it seems like it's getting pretty silly. Maybe I'm just having an off day, though. Watch it for yourself. (Louis Wu 17:09:46 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3 2v2 Tourney for American Cancer Society
CG Freedom 6 let us know that Charity Gamers is running a new online 2v2 charity tournament for the American Cancer Society. The tourney takes place on February 24; $20 to get in, prizes for first and second place teams. Go check 'em out! (Louis Wu 17:01:12 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3 takes 6th in GCA GotY voting
The Game Critics Awards for 2007 have been announced - and Game of the Year goes to Bioshock. Halo 3 comes in 6th in total points (the scoring system is explained in detail on the site). (Louis Wu 16:42:52 UTC) (permalink)
Clash of the Titans
IGN has posted a comparison of Call of Duty 4 and Halo 3, but leaves the decision about which is a better game up to you. (God forbid you should decide you like both...) (Louis Wu 16:40:56 UTC) (permalink)
Achievement Generators
Fires7orm pointed out an Achievement generator created by GruntsRUs - but you need to sign in to use it. (If you'd rather not, he listed a few other ones on the web that require no login.) (Louis Wu 16:31:43 UTC) (permalink)
More McFarlane Previews
InnerRayg found a couple of collections of photos of the McFarlane action figures, being previewed in the UK. (He found a Toyfair gallery, and a Toysdaily gallery.) Check 'em out! (Louis Wu 16:30:13 UTC) (permalink)
Hey - where's the shoulder emblem?
Hawty McBloggy was faced with some unexpected snow this past week, so she did what any true Halo fan would do - she built a Spartan Snowman. It comes complete with plasma grenade, spike grenade, and even a katana. (Yes, that snowman got all the achievements.)

Podtacular 147
Podtacular 147 is up - they'll help you get through Floodgate. Go listen! (Louis Wu 15:41:34 UTC) (permalink)
That's not a job I'd take in a million years.
Wow. Here are some guys with ambitious goals. Grant Harrison is the vice president for the integrated consumer experience at Humana, and it's his job to bring health information media to the masses. He knows it's boring, and complicated. His goal? He wants health care providers to make health information and activities "entertaining."
"It should be as fun as playing Halo 3, or watching Flight of the Conchords."
Um... you've got a long road ahead of you, Mr. Harrison. (Louis Wu 15:39:24 UTC) (permalink)
Fathom: The Director's Cut
Mythica was hiccuping yesterday (a taste of things to come? Remember, you've only got until the end of this month to download what you want from there), so I wasn't able to announce a Director's Edition (basically, commentary by blackouTT) of Fathom, which had a trailer released last July. If you swing by the HaloGrid forum now, you can find mirrors (WMP9 and QuickTime) being hosted by GamingTV. You might find it interesting to see how these guys worked with each other and put this film together. (blackouTT also invites you to swing by the website of Eden Visuals, his recently-renamed media production vehicle.) (Louis Wu 15:34:32 UTC) (permalink)
