Teaching an old dog new tricks
It's amazing what's still being done with the Halo CE engine... The Custom Mapping Team is working on adding vehicle boarding to their SPV2 mod, and have released a preview movie showing off some cool Banshee boarding. Check it out! Thanks, AvatarAang. (Louis Wu 23:02:13 UTC) (permalink)
Arby 'n' the Chief S3E11: Company (Part Two)
There's a new Arby 'n' the Chief up at YouTube - thanks, urk. Arbiter gets tired of being bossed around... (Louis Wu 21:07:51 UTC) (permalink)
ASE Episode 7: The Ark, Part 1
I guess it's Halo Day in Narc's house - Anger, Sadness, & Envy (the irregularly-produced Rampancy.net-based podcast) has a new episode out, this one focused on The Ark. 45 minutes long, 40 mb. Go listen! (Louis Wu 18:59:46 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3 Partnership - a Guide in the Making
Narcogen looks to be interested in starting a guide to partner-based multiplay; if this doesn't mean anything to you, go read the Rough Draft of the idea at Rampancy.net. Update: Narcogen pointed out that this came from Lemon Demon 72's blog, not his own. My mistake! (Louis Wu 18:48:54 UTC) (permalink)
Where is Master Chief?
Suicidal Stickman sent along 'Where is Master Chief', a 4.5 mb Flash game he built with PrimeGhost548 that asks you to find MC on 15 screenshots. It's a pretty basic game (you just have to find him, there are no time limits, or even time milestones), but if you've got a few minutes to kill, give it a shot! (We've left it as a bare .swf file, so that it fills your entire browser; putting into a fixed-size box just means it's harder to play.) (Louis Wu 18:25:43 UTC) (permalink)
Now THAT'S Mythic - Winner Picked
The "Now THAT'S Mythic" submission period came to a close last night - and Domino picked a winner from the 577 names we in the hat. (That's a MUCH lower number than the last few go-rounds - I'm wondering if this is due to the fact that we only had submissions open for a couple of days, or if it's just because nobody needs free maps any more?) Congratulations to ThebigBhimself - free stuff is awesome! And, as always, thanks to Domino Theory for providing the resources to fund these giveaways! (Louis Wu 10:35:13 UTC) (permalink)
G.I. Joe suits have a MJOLNIR feel
zofinda noticed similarities between the Spartan MJOLNIR armor in Halo... and the Delta Six Accelerator suits worn by the G.I. Joe crew in the new Rise of Cobra movie coming this summer. See if you agree! (Best shots I could find were here and here.) (Louis Wu 10:32:14 UTC) (permalink)
Lost Levels: Episode 6: Otherwordly Trials
Slim30 stopped in with word of Lost Levels Episode 6 - this mashup of Dead Space, Halo 3, and live footage is an interesting piece of work. Nearly 10 minutes long.
