Selling the Movement
Bungie's Bill O'Brien answered a bunch of questions asked by an animation student... and the read is fascinating, even for those of us who know very little about the subject. Go read! (Louis Wu 22:23:22 UTC) (permalink)
How many kills is that?
It's Montage Wednesday at Bungie.net:
- New Top Ten Halo Reach Beta Kills from Anoj - this one is devoted to Armor Ability Kills. Gotta love the assassination from the invis guy that someone LANDED ON.
- Halo Reach Beta Montage from Mjolnir Battle Tactics - it's called 'Dominate', and it's certainly full of pwnage. (Very funky interlacing, though...)
- Abstract360.com put together their own Community Montage - lots of fun to be had.
- DevilDawg posted 'Lost' - a personal Reach Beta montage. Fast clips.
- Reach for Muggsy is Muggsy's entry in the HaloMontage Reach Beta Montage Contest - understated editing.
Nice lunch break footage! (Louis Wu 17:00:49 UTC) (permalink)
Don't be a jerk.
kapowaz pointed out a piece at PC Gamer; it's an object lesson as to why you shouldn't teamkill. I couldn't help thinking that if he'd just shaken his head at the first betrayal and moved on, he'd probably have had a much better night...

Reach Stats apps get new tools
DHalo joined the Potato group at Bungie.net, set up to test the new Reach Stats API that Bungie is developing; his first attempt at a program is now available for download. Check out the screens, and grab a copy before the Bungie.net Reach stats pages are offline!

Nerf MA5B
Moz sent word of a Nerf Assault Rifle he finished up a while back - there are in-progress build shots, final shots, and a video of the gun in use. He writes about it like it's old and boring to him... but MAN, it looks good. Check it. (Louis Wu 12:51:04 UTC) (permalink)
Out of Range
The latest Chronicles of ODS Steve (#72) is now live at Hawty McBloggy's - you should never bring a camera to a laser fight. (Louis Wu 12:50:25 UTC) (permalink)
Looking back at the Beta
GrimBrother One was the first to notice an interesting article at IGN - it's a post-Beta Interview with Brian Jarrard, containing a ton of information about the preliminary findings from the Beta. Startling stats, interesting intuitions, bad-ass bugs. An overall fascinating read... go check it out! (Louis Wu 12:49:31 UTC) (permalink)
