An armory for the little guys
7he grunt w/a plasma pistol noticed that ThinkGeek is selling weapons for your LEGO minifigures - and several of them are Halo-related. The collection includes a Halo pistol, a plasma pistol, a needler, and an energy sword. It also includes the pulse rifle from Aliens, Megatron's Walther P38, an Auto-9 pistol from Robocop, a blaster from Blade Runner, and a phaser from Star Trek. Nice!

Humpday CC Vids
Videos for you this fine Wednesday at Bungie's Comm Chatter:
- Majority put together a Halo Reach Beta montage - lots of power weapons, lots of multikills.
- KnightxofxLight wanted to show off the beauty of the Reach pistol - it's just a minitage, but it does a great job of showing how timing and distance are related.
Good stuff. (Louis Wu 16:56:29 UTC) (permalink)
Helmet Shenanigans
Master Ph0bia stopped by with a link to a thread he found at Bungie.net - it shows off a bunch of different helmets that are viewable with a Boneyard glitch that happens occasionally. (He also included some helmets found by modding, it seems.) If you're interested in seeing some of the variants that might be available in the fall, check it out! Update: Master Ph0bia clarified that he is not 'Plain Ben', the poster at B.net - he simply found the thread there. (Louis Wu 16:41:48 UTC) (permalink)
CoD: 1 and 5, Halo: 2, 3, 4
The Halo: Reach Beta wasn't popular enough to bump Modern Warfare 2 from the top of the LIVE Activity list last week - but it DID put ODST at #2, itself at #3, and Halo 3 at #4. (Shows that there more folks played Halo 3: ODST without touching the Reach Beta than there were folks that participated in the Friends and Family program...) (Louis Wu 16:11:17 UTC) (permalink)
PGCR Episode 36/Beta Special
SK1LL4XED sent word that PGCR's 'Beta Special' podcast is now up - and they've announced the code winners. They actually gave away 3 codes, not two. Go listen - they also discuss the beta in detail (game flow, community concerns, opinions about the upcoming game). (Louis Wu 16:06:08 UTC) (permalink)
