Making of The Life
fxguide has an interview with Rob Moggach, visual effects supervisor and lead compositor on the Halo 3: ODST live-action trailer, about the work his team did to make that piece come alive for us. Fascinating read! (Louis Wu 22:31:05 UTC) (permalink)
Cortanalicious
Is Fergie a Cortana fan? Hawty McBloggy thinks so. Go see why! (Louis Wu 22:26:30 UTC) (permalink)
Tag and Release: Cool
Bungie posted a new 'Tag and Release' collection - the word of the week is 'Cool'. Fun shots! (Louis Wu 22:25:08 UTC) (permalink)
Monday Comic Roundup (sort of)
Grin + Bear It continues its edgy storyline - not my taste, but the readers seem to love it. That's your only Halo comic update of the day... Update: eep - what am I saying? Halo Action Figure Theater just updated, as well! (I have to say, I have no idea at all what's going on, but hey... what else is new?) (Louis Wu 22:21:41 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Legends Poster/DVD Contest from 360Junkies
360Junkies' Jonathan Heier let us know that you can win a Halo Legends poster - and maybe even a copy of Legends. Their contest starts today, and runs through February 15th at Midnight (PST). Go sign up - free is good! (Louis Wu 22:07:52 UTC) (permalink)
Monday Monday Movie Movie
We missed the afternoon's video dump on Bungie.net - but never fear, we're catching up now!
- SpitFIReKyD 'friends' decided to mess with him. He gets the better of them - I guess he's not someone you should mess with.
- Twisted Metal made a solo trickjumping vid. Some pretty cool ones!
- Eamonn made a Halo 3 montage - HD carnage.
- WatchThis!Gaming posted their sixth episode of Top 5 Halo 3 Plays - lots of snipers.
- 360Cinema has a Top 10 Halo 3 Exterminations vid. I'm hearing Daleks. (Exterm on Big Team Battle? That's insane.)
- There's a new IGN Top Ten Halo 3 Kills vid - this one focuses on stickies.
Whew! That was a decent weekend queue! (Louis Wu 22:05:09 UTC) (permalink)
OMG
pete_the_duck dropped by with some heart-stopping pics - go look! (Louis Wu 14:49:03 UTC) (permalink)
Keep it Frosted!
NeoGAF member jergrah pointed out a page on Assortmentofgeeks.com showing off some very cool cupcakes created by the crew at Wink cupcakes in Seattle. Mmmm... (Louis Wu 14:48:39 UTC) (permalink)
Grand Valley
TDSpiral also whipped up a gorgeous piece of artwork - this one's concept art rather than promotional, but it's just as nice to look at. (He started a thread about it on our forum, as well.)

Halo: Reach poster by Halcylon
Halcylon has whipped up a very poster for Halo: Reach - it's not quite big enough for large-format printing, but it IS quite nice to look at. Thanks to ElusiveEagle519 for bringing it to our attention. (Louis Wu 14:47:08 UTC) (permalink)
IGN for Haiti - Oonsk Sells Big
Gah. I missed the IGN for Haiti auction endings yesterday, and they don't seem to have put up any way to look at already-finished auctions, so it's unclear how they did. I DO have a link for the Oonsk and Mister Chief painting by Frank O'Connor, though; I can't tell you who won, but I can say that the final price was $662. Not too shabby at all!

Hide, Seek, Snap: Round 9 over, Round 10 live
The two Halo 3: ODST screens for Round 9 of our Hide, Seek, Snap contest were successfully reproduced (congrats, Mushroomy and bhwrice - you both have new Sgt Johnson codes!) - and two new screens (from Halo 3 again) are available for Round 10. Still missing a Johnson code for ODST Firefight? Here's another pair of chances! Go find 'em!
