If you run a dedicated server, you want this. (Louis Wu 19:10:12 UTC) (permalink)

Put your lips together... wait, that's something else

Montage-o-mania
A pair of fun montages culled from the Bungie Blog - Mini Waz put together some nicely timed gameplay on the Mythic Maps, and B1gM4cB1gPimp1n and GOT NO chAncE do some nasty vehicle-based killing in a seven-minute splatter montage. (Louis Wu 19:00:03 UTC) (permalink) 
Sandbox in SketchUp, just for you
WhtButterflyLiz went to the trouble of building Sandbox in SketchUp (Google's free 3D modeling program) - so you can plan out your masterpiece before you actually build it. Very nice! (Louis Wu 18:54:07 UTC) (permalink)

Gaming Hours
The Gamer Limit decided to figure out what Halo 3 players COULD have done with all the time they used to play Halo 3. (They didn't even do the math right; they guesstimated 5,000 total years of playing time, when Bungie pointed out that the real number was above 64,000.) While it's true that that many man-hours could have put a whole bunch more faces on Mount Rushmore... I'm thinking we're better off without Mario up there. (Louis Wu 13:04:48 UTC) (permalink)
