Fails of the Weak Volume 23
AchievementHunter has posted Fails of the Weak Volume 23 - and once again, lots and lots of people die in embarrassing ways. Great fun! Thanks, munky-058. (Louis Wu 20:35:18 UTC) (permalink)
Halo and Kinect
According to NowGamer, Frank O'Connor talked about the potential interactions between the Halo universe and Kinect - don't worry, he's not looking to make you play full-contact Halo. They've been looking at ways to make it work with Halo: Waypoint, for example. Sounds like appropriate use of technology! Thanks, xmoosev3. (Louis Wu 19:53:15 UTC) (permalink)
Mythic Difficulty Guide - Pillar of Autumn
You may have your hands full with a LASO run through ONI Sword Base - but Tyrant has his sights set on bigger things. This week, his guide for The Pillar of Autumn will help you defeat what is definitely one of the most convoluted Reach level out there. Sixteen movies make his words clearer, while the text itself is chock-full of tips and tricks and caveats to watch for. Check it out - then go beat this massive level on the hardest difficulty of all!

Fire Team Zulu: ThunderKat
FyreWulff sent word of the latest Fire Team Zulu challenge: ThunderKat will have you whipping your way through ONI Sword Base with a lot of skulls, but a handful of unusable weapons. Best entry before March 6 gets 3 months of Xbox LIVE - so what are you waiting for? Go play. (For the first time, international entries are accepted.) (Louis Wu 15:59:54 UTC) (permalink)
Teabag Prevention Presents Reflection
Brian Gilmore let us know that the Teabag Prevention Team is back on the job - this week, they're covering the map Reflection. It's a pretty in-depth look at what's on the map, what can help you beat your opponents, and what you need to watch out for - give it a read! (Louis Wu 15:23:42 UTC) (permalink)
Arby 'n' The Chief: Hypernews I
Looks like we missed an Arby 'n' the Chief last week - Hypernews I went live on the 19th. Our heroes go back in time and check out Zelda. Chief might be my favorite game reviewer... (Louis Wu 15:17:51 UTC) (permalink)
The Circle of Li- uh, Halo
Tunavi combined the Reach ending with the original Halo's beginning - I thought it worked pretty nicely! Take a look. (Louis Wu 14:43:26 UTC) (permalink)
It's like popcorn... for zombies.
pete_the_duck and FyreWulff were playing with game options... and stumbled across something hilarious. (Check the video in this post, too.) (Louis Wu 14:40:41 UTC) (permalink)
Now THAT'S a Speed Run.
RC Master shows you how to beat ONI Sword Base, LASO, in under 3 minutes. (Well... if you can play at 7x speed, I guess.) Pretty funny vid! (His post also contains a link to the Bungie.net Fileshare slot containing the REAL run, if you want to watch it in regular time. 18 minutes is still a tiny fraction of what most people are needing to beat this level at this difficulty...)

Defiant Assets Hit the Web
A set of screenshots and a couple of videos pertaining to the Defiant Map Pack hit the streets yesterday - Gamersyde has a nice roundup. (Lots of sites have a nice roundup. That's just the one I picked.) (Louis Wu 14:33:15 UTC) (permalink)
20 Kill Clips from IGN
Looks like we missed a couple of episodes of IGN's Top 10 Reach Kills - thanks to ChrisTheeCrappy for pointing out the entries for the week of February 16, and the week of February 23 - some great kills in these batches! (Dumb and Dumber, from the 23rd, made me laugh out loud.) (Louis Wu 14:29:37 UTC) (permalink)
