Neoflux jp Montage
Lando Griff1n let us know that over at Halo3Montage.com there's a new montage edited by Hazmat v2, featuring gameplay by NeoFlux jp, part of the Hatred of Heroes team.

MLG Pro Player Song - Walshy
Bryan Simon retired from Halo songwriting... but he felt like he couldn't skip a Walshy song in his tributes to pro Halo players. Check this baby out (sung to the tune of 'Hey There Delilah' by the Plain White T's) - or just grab the MP3 from us (2.3 mb). (Louis Wu 14:14:48 UTC) (permalink) 
Merry What?
Treeskunk's Paul Shelley wants to wish you... a Merry Christmas? (I think this was for yesterday, but we didn't get mail about it until today.) (Louis Wu 14:14:02 UTC) (permalink) 
Whew. Feels good to get out of that. In the parts of the world where time is described using UTC (like, say, HBO-land), it is now past midnight on April 2... and our April Fools joke can be retired. We hope you enjoyed it. If you missed any of Bungie's B.U.N.G.L.E. stories, here are links: Introducing B.U.N.G.L.E. | B.U.N.G.L.E. Map Guide | 7 Pillars of B.U.N.G.L.E. (If Bungie removes these for any reason, we'll put up local mirrors, because they're funny.) If you don't have a Mythic Map Code, the USA Today story we posted is, indeed, real, and you've got until 9 am tomorrow morning to register to win one of the 50 codes they're giving away. Otherwise... enjoy your (sane-again) HBO! (Louis Wu 00:37:19 UTC) (permalink)
