Noble Prize.
Today's One One Se7en takes a cynical look at Bungie's motives with respect to friendly non-player characters... hmm. (Louis Wu 17:59:45 UTC) (permalink)
Bungie's Global Challenges - via RSS
A couple of weeks ago, brokenwatch (the name is not unknown here) posted some quick code on NeoGAF, showing you how to host your own RSS feed for Bungie's daily challenges. Well, not everyone has the resources to host a feed - so we've taken the liberty of doing this for you. (We've also cleaned up the output a little, for validation purposes, and cached the result, so that there's no hit on Bungie's servers for this content.) It's pretty bare-bones... but that's all that's really needed here. Load this in your favorite RSS reader, and you've got a tiny, easy-to-read record of today's challenges! (Thanks to Yossarian Drew for the push we needed to make this live.) (Louis Wu 14:37:13 UTC) (permalink)
Obligatory
Anton P. Nym noticed that the latest VG Cats is Halo-related. I kinda wish this sort of thing happened more often on CSI, actually. (Louis Wu 13:39:04 UTC) (permalink)
Gorgeous end-of-Reach panos
Al7eredBeasT let us know that he's whipped up a couple of Halo Reach panoramas - they're gorgeous, but they were compiled from images taken near the end of the campaign, so if you haven't finished, they have spoilers. That said, you should see 'em: Final Days of Reach and [title redacted for spoiler reasons]. Gotta love those skyboxes... (Louis Wu 13:21:04 UTC) (permalink)
OLR S2 Ep 10
We're a couple of weeks behind (as usual), but joncjg's One Life Remaining Season 2, Episode 10 has been out since September 24. Katyhryn gets kidnapped while being taken into custody... things get weird.

More goodies from Halo Waypoint
bs angel sent along a few links from the Halo Waypoint blog that you might be interested in:
- Anoj is back with a new Top 10 Reach Kills vid - this one focuses on multikills. There are some great ones in here!
- Halo Reach Forges showcased a Quiddich map - if you like what you see, the map and gametype can be downloaded here.
- REJ put together a trailer for a full Red vs Blue movie - 8 seasons, compressed into three minutes!
While you're there, you should check out the trailer for Apt. 117, a new animated series created by Powerhouse Animation for 343 Industries - thanks to onebitrocket for the heads-up. Good stuff! (Louis Wu 13:19:57 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Typography
Hedgemony noticed an artsy Halo-themed image that you can buy on a lot of surfaces - t-shirts, laptop skins, canvas. Interesting! (Some of our forumgoers were unhappy with typos and misquotes.)

MLG.TV
MLG Pro has opened MLG.TV, a new site with lots of video. If you're looking for pro gameplay, this seems like a likely spot. Thanks, Devin Olsen.
