Evolutions Community Art Contest - Winners
Halo Waypoint has announced the winners of their Halo Evolutions Community Art Contest - you can read the announcement on their site, or just browse through the winners in our Winners Gallery. Congratulations to all the participants - but I'd like to toss out a special shout-out to TDSpiral, Sl'askia, Leviathan, and Bryn Casey - all HBO regulars, all winners. Awesome!

Canada's Chance to Remember Reach
Do you live in Canada? If so, you might want to check out this page - looks like there's a mini-ARG of sorts, similar to what took place in Toronto for Halo 3. Thanks, The BS Police. (Louis Wu 20:48:04 UTC) (permalink)
YOU CAN'T HAVE MY SOUL, CABBAGE.
zwitterion noticed a photograph taken during the wildfires that are eating through Russia right now - it reminded him strongly of something in Halo. Me too. (Louis Wu 19:45:19 UTC) (permalink)
Ritalin Roundup
Couple of montages for you, courtesy of Bungie's Comm Chatter: Velander's Halo 3 Montage 1 has nice gameplay and lots of color changes... while Stobs' Chemical is seriously heavy on the fast cuts. Bring your dramamine. (Louis Wu 18:42:20 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Marathon for Charity
Some folks at the website "Halo: Endurance Evolved" are going to be playing through all of the Halo FPS games (1, 2, 3, ODST) in a row, to raise money for Child's Play. Swing by the site for more information, and a donation link. Thanks to urk for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 18:20:28 UTC) (permalink)
I can't wait for Reach.
Now, I know a lot of you probably echo that sentiment... but likely for different reasons. You see, I'm getting worn out watching trailer remixes... there's so little footage available that everyone's using the same clips. There are two more, just this very morning - crymson nite set it to Eminem, while John_117 set it to Halo 3's Behold a Pale Horse. Less than a month... and folks will be able to make trailers from their OWN footage! (Louis Wu 17:40:52 UTC) (permalink)
Reach Console Sounds, Downloadable
Major Nelson posted audio files (in both .mp3 and .m4r (iPhone ringtone) formats) of the Power On and Tray Opening sounds on the Reach special edition console. Go grab your copies! Thanks, Minime637. (Louis Wu 17:22:46 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3: ODST Mythic Guide: Kizingo Boulevard
Daniel 'Tyrant' Morris continues to illuminate the most difficult corners of Halo 3: ODST's campaign - the latest walkthrough in his Mythic Difficulty Guide will get you through Kizingo Boulevard. Lots of tips, lots of vids - go check it out! (Louis Wu 15:53:09 UTC) (permalink)
Master Chief - Walled
Wow, very cool - Hawty McBloggy uncovered a superb wall mural adorning the bedroom of an 11-year-old (along with pictures documenting its creation). What a view! (Louis Wu 15:41:40 UTC) (permalink)
In Forky We Trust.
Joe Duplessie whipped up a pretty cool Xbox 360 Dashboard theme from the recent Forklift artwork on Bungie.net - if you're unclear on the details, his post explains how to use it, as well. (Louis Wu 15:38:07 UTC) (permalink)
ubald comic - Echoes in the Grave
Tony 'ubald' Marcotte continues his work on a Halo comic; he sent along what started as an attempt for the cover, but ended up a character shot. Either way - pretty cool! (Louis Wu 15:33:52 UTC) (permalink)
History of Bungie, on GG
Australian show Good Game recently dedicated most of an episode to the History of Bungie (with a significant portion being given to the Halo series) - mattroe provides direct links to the Bungie segments. Nice! (Louis Wu 15:32:07 UTC) (permalink)
Reach deals around the world
ElzarTheBam noticed that UK shop Argos is offering Halo 3: ODST for £5 if you order Reach from them. And Hedgemony pointed out a truly ugly web page at Australia's JB Hi-Fi that offers a free t-shirt if you preorder Reach, as well as a chance to win a Halo Reach bomber jacket.

Megabloks Halo Armies
Urban Reflex found a pretty cool image someone created, showing off both UNSC and Covenant forces, made of Megabloks - not bad! (Louis Wu 15:29:38 UTC) (permalink)
