More Mobile Stats Choices
Justin Kolberg, of Aelatis Technology, let us know that Aelatis' Reach Service Record app for the iPhone has gotten a large update - it now includes features like Rank Progress, Stats by Playlist, Stats By Map, Medal Stats, and more. Changes for the Android version are coming soon! (Louis Wu 19:46:35 UTC) (permalink)
Achievement HORSE #5 (and more)
Achievement HORSE #5 is now live over at the Achievement Hunter website. Fan-created evil challenges, tried over and over and over again by Jack and Geoff, with entertaining commentary. I love this series! (While you're over there, you should check out Immersion, if you haven't; it's not Halo-related, but it's really, really fun to watch. It's a series of videos where the RT crew sees how well video game tropes translate over into the real world. I believe this should be on television. The latest episode, released last night, investigates zombie headshots, and how regular people would fare during the apocalypse.) (Louis Wu 16:05:39 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Reach Challenges - on your iDevice
Aurum Aquila sent word that he's released a Halo Reach Challenges app for iOS (which means you can use it on your iPhone, your iPad, or your iPod Touch). Shows daily challenges - and your personal progress towards each. Nice! (Also has a Service Record overview.) Hey, it's free - what do you have to lose? (Louis Wu 14:32:04 UTC) (permalink)
One Final Effort
7he grunt w/a plasma pistol had a successful (and satisfying) flag run last night in a game of BTB CTF - bedtime stories with pictures are always fun to read! (Louis Wu 14:28:50 UTC) (permalink)
A look at some Community maps
Lots of people on our forum (and other forums) have weighed in about the new fan-created maps currently found in the Community Slayer playlist - we're highlighting FyreWulff's mini-review (just 3 maps) because he's done a pretty nice job of pinning down what works and what doesn't in the maps he looks at. Go add your own opinion! (Louis Wu 14:27:13 UTC) (permalink)
Bungie Pentathlon 2011 Preview
This is Halo-related insofar as Halo: Reach is one of the featured events - but it's interesting news to Bungie fans in any case. It's that time of year again - the Bungie Pentathlon kicks off tomorrow. Go read about the events, and the players. (Lots of smacktalk.) Webcams will be running. (Louis Wu 14:24:03 UTC) (permalink)
TOR Giveaways, in honor of Cryptum
Joshua Allen noticed that TOR got a boatload of Halo schwag from 343 Industries, and has been giving it away on their site. Of the 7 giveaways, only the last one is still open. Go enter, though; you've got a chance of winning a fantastic set of Greg Bear's novels. (Not sure when it closes, so hurry.) (Louis Wu 14:20:29 UTC) (permalink)
