Holier Than Thou.
Sometimes, things don't go as planned. Or maybe they do. Witness today's One One Se7en. (Louis Wu 21:48:10 UTC) (permalink)
A cardboard AR - surprisingly solid
Finnish Spartan (who sent us pics of his armor a while back) is building an assault rifle - check out the progress so far. (Louis Wu 16:15:17 UTC) (permalink)
I need a website.
We got word that Steve Downes, the voice of Master Chief, has a new website - and on it are a bunch of cool voiceover demos, and an all-Halo video. Slick work! (Louis Wu 15:55:15 UTC) (permalink)

The Mohican Effect
Elnea stopped by our forum with word that Halo Action Theater 131 went up yesterday - has Jason been eaten by a giant helmet? What DO zombies taste like, anwyay? (Louis Wu 14:29:05 UTC) (permalink)

Sigafoos let us know that The Riot 88 is now up at Second Foundation - 31 minutes, 12.5 mb, your standard community news/challenges/Halo stuff, plus zombies and Rambo. (Hmm... a zombie Rambo sounds scary!) Go listen. (Louis Wu 14:27:07 UTC) (permalink)
CQB Armo(u)r, as a school project
Neil Ellis sent us a set of pretty incredible armor pics last week - I couldn't do much with them while I was out of the country, but they're posted now. I hope he scored top marks for this work - it deserves them. (Louis Wu 13:45:31 UTC) (permalink)
The Eye of Sauron, Halo 3 Style
Burr discovered a pretty cool little glitch on Sandtrap; looks like Bungie left in some code from an old way of keeping you on the playing field. Go read about it (and check out his pictures). There are other pics scattered throughout the thread, as other forumgoers played with this... Update: unsurprisingly, this has been covered at High Impact Halo. Thanks, Decommissioner.

Res ipsa loquitur
Interesting work by Fëanor and friends, on our forum - the original post was made yesterday morning, with an amended version put up 14 hours later; he's taken all the latin names of Halo's species, as listed in the Bestiarium, and translated them as well as possible. Did you know that Drones were 'King of Ugly'? Me either. (Louis Wu 13:16:11 UTC) (permalink)

G.A.N.G. Awards Results
Music4Games posted the results from the 6th Annual G.A.N.G. Awards last week (we mentioned the ceremony a few weeks ago); Halo 3 didn't go home empty-handed. The crew took home 'Best Use Of Multi-Channel Surround In A Game' - congrats, guys! (Louis Wu 13:02:54 UTC) (permalink)
McFarlane Figures - now on Walmart shelves
Xavier pointed out a new gallery from Sean Bradley over at the 405th forums - looks like Walmart is selling McFarlane Halo 3 action figures about 10 days ahead of schedule. Go see what he found! (Louis Wu 12:59:45 UTC) (permalink)
Oh, the horror!
2phast let us know that the next Larry the Marine comic is now up - it's a little disturbing, I think. (Louis Wu 12:56:57 UTC) (permalink)

Halo Wars Addict is running a caption contest - come up with a funny caption for a specific shot from the Halo Wars trailer released in 2006, win... something. (Prizes to be announced soon, apparently.) Thanks, Sam152. (Louis Wu 12:53:35 UTC) (permalink)
