In the studio with Marty O'Donnell
Music 4 Games sat down with Marty O'Donnell to find out what drives him, what inspires him, what got him started. Fun read! Go check it out. Thanks, Greg. (Louis Wu 19:41:49 UTC) (permalink)
Holy crap, I've made 100 of these?
ZZoMBiE13 has posted Episode 100 of Another Halo Comic Strip - and announced a hiatus. (Not so much for the strip - he's found someone to fill in for him... just for himself, to reenergize and become reinspired.) And I'd just like to say, on a personal note... those aren't my eyes.

Inside Halo: Episode 14
Adam Kovic let us know that Inside Halo 14 (well, now it's Aureola Interior, since it's been taken over by Pancho Villa's great-grandson Pete) is now online at YouTube. As surreal as ever, except now with a taste of Mexico. Seven minutes long. (Coincidence? I think not!) (Louis Wu 18:50:52 UTC) (permalink)
Grifball Spring League Weekend
Last night, Team HBO lost their Quarterfinal Spring League Grifball playoff match, dashing their championship hopes... but today, Bungie kicked off the latest Double XP Weekend using the Spring League Grifball map. (This one is far more difficult to cheat in than the Winter League map was.) Go hammer someone in our memory! (Thanks to Avateur for the heads-up.) (Louis Wu 18:39:04 UTC) (permalink)
MSYF
Hawty McBloggy noticed a Cafe Press t-shirt devoted to the Spike Grenade (and the feeling it inspires in its victims). Go look! (Louis Wu 18:34:04 UTC) (permalink)
Wanna Play? Okay, Gryphonosiris wins the 'Silliest Story of the Day' award with his link to a Gamespot article about a bunch of 13-year-olds who hired prostitutes to play Halo with them on daddy's stolen credit card. You have to read the whole story for the biggest WTF moments, though... I mean... oh, never mind. Just read it. Update: apparently, this was a hoax. Details in this followup by Gryphonosiris. Too bad... funny story. (Louis Wu 17:33:01 UTC) (permalink)
Cortana Time-Lapse Painting
Very cool - JustyB noticed a time-lapse video of someone drawing Cortana, in Photoshop. It's really interesting to watch. The artist stopped by the thread, and it's possible we might be getting a higher-resolution version of the video soon... (Louis Wu 17:03:59 UTC) (permalink)
CanWest08 - Coming Soon! Laird reminded us (by pointing to an article over at Hawty McBloggy's) that CanWest08 is coming up in just over a week. It's going to be a weekend of mayhem and mischief, with machinima galore, a couple of contests (with cool prizes), and lots of Halo community stars. (If I lived closer than 3000 miles and didn't have about 3 weeks of stuff to do in the seven days, I'd be on a plane in a heartbeat.) If you're anywhere near Vancouver, or even if you're not... check this out. (Louis Wu 16:56:24 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Manga - a Go
Yesterday, we mentioned that Mcnealy was considering creating a Halo manga, and wanted you to weigh in with your interest. Apparently, interest was high; he's going ahead with it. There's an example of what he's going to be working with up now.
