MLG/Dr Pepper - free goodies, and a chat with Str8
Congrats to Linken91, who won the first Dr Pepper MLG/HBO giveaway - according to Scott Santos, DPSG Community Manager, he's going home with a $20 Best Buy giftcard and two 12-packs of Dr Pepper. Nice! There's another one coming soon - but in the meantime, swing by the Dr Pepper Facebook page this Wednesday, August 19 at 4 pm Eastern; they're hosting a live chat with all four members of MLG Pros Str8 Rippin. Tsquared, Legit, ElamiteWarrior and Snip3down will be on hand to answer your best gaming questions. And remember, if you want a shot at the package Linken91 won today, all you need to do is send an email to scott.dpsg@gmail.com with your first and last name, your mailing address, and your age. The second winner will be notified the week of Monday, August 24th. (Louis Wu 21:26:56 UTC) (permalink)
Summer Mythic Recon Challenge - Your Last Shot
For nine weeks, Tyrant ran the Summer Mythic Recon Challenge; you were exhorted to complete each level of Halo 3 on Mythic difficulty (solo,legendary, all skulls on). Each week, one contestant won Recon armor to wear with pride in multiplayer. This week, each contestant who completed all nine levels is eligible for one more shot at Recon - instructions on how to enter (if you're eligible) are in the Bungie.net newspost. Swing by and read it - and then get your list together! (Louis Wu 20:32:52 UTC) (permalink)
BRs up, pinkies out!
HC Redemption wrote up a new review of the HaloScreenshots.com service - swing by HaloCharts to read it. It does a great job of pointing out the reasons you might want to avail yourself of this service - and then gives you a pretty straightforward set of instructions for doing just that. Thanks to urk for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 20:25:49 UTC) (permalink)
Love the Marathon art.
Kotaku took a cool pic of Paul Bertone's desk - if you want to play Halo 3: ODST's campaign with ZERO spoilers, don't look at this, but if you're curious about the mapping of encounters, check out the layout behind his desk! Thanks, Eddy 071. (Louis Wu 19:53:11 UTC) (permalink)
Minutemen: The Crucible, Chapter 8
Azrael's back with another chapter of Minutemen: The Crucible - Chapter 8 is up on his blog. Give it a read! (Louis Wu 18:12:13 UTC) (permalink)
Ninjas ate my homework
The Tag and Release feature on Bungie.net today is labeled 'Ninja' - go see what people are tagging with this word! (Louis Wu 17:40:27 UTC) (permalink)
I need a ring.
Britain's Echo has a story about a Halo-themed wedding in Southend-on-Sea, outside of London. Red and blue flags, a map-based cake, and the game's logo embroidered on the bride's dress were some of the touches. Nice! Thanks, urk. (Louis Wu 17:32:17 UTC) (permalink)
Monday Movie Madness
New movies, from the BungLog™:
- The Lucky Twenty Episode 1 is a montage of clips put together by FortNight Productions - highs and lows of lucky plays from Matchmaking, all narrated. There'll be a new one every two weeks.
- Funny Halo 3 Productions put together a splatter montage, set to the 1812 Overture.
- Whifffproductions are back with more from Lyle - this time, Lyle answers his fanmail. I think Strongbad still holds the fanmail title... but this was fun.
Go watch! (Louis Wu 17:31:16 UTC) (permalink)
