Halo news back Monday, March 7, 2011 Halo news forward

Comm Chatter Tasties
It's Monday, so Bungie's Comm Chatter probably has some video material for you... hmm, lessee...

While you're over there, you should check out the rules for Week 9 of Bungie's All Stars contest - if you want that elusive star on your gamertag, you'll need to take an epic screenshot of a Falcon. (Full instructions in the post.) You've got until Thursday. (Louis Wu 20:52:22 UTC) (permalink)

Off-screen footage of Defiant MP
Mr.Sci-Fi was at the Emerald City Comicon this weekend, and grabbed some videos of the Defiant Map Pack with his phone... quality is what you'd expect, but hey, it's footage, right? (Louis Wu 18:10:27 UTC) (permalink)

XForgery's Infection Forging Challenge
Null Parameter, from XForgery, let us know about a new Infection Forging Challenge they're hosting - you've got just a week to put together a cool Infection map. They'll play entries on the night of the 14th, and the best response will win the map creator a code for the Defiant Map Pack! Not bad. Full details are in the linked forum post.

Just for the heck of it
Hedgemony explored ODST for panorama material recently - and then tossed in a bonus image from Reach's Tip of the Spear. Go see! (Louis Wu 14:48:09 UTC) (permalink)

Building an awesome transmedia franchise
Frank O'Connor talked to Xbox360Achievements - the focus is on how 343 sees the Halo universe evolving as time goes on. Some faulty info about Bungie in there (they made several games before Halo, including Pathways into Darkness, Myth, and Oni, in addition to Marathon, and even published a couple of third-party games)... but that's not Frank, that's Xbox360A. Go read! (Louis Wu 14:45:46 UTC) (permalink)

Greenskull's Forgefest 2
Greenskull whipped up Forgefest 2 - it basically highlights a couple of interesting Forge maps, showing you what gameplay looks like. Nascar looks like an entertaining Infection game, while Indiana Jones might be a blast if your friends don't betray you on a regular basis. (Louis Wu 14:45:16 UTC) (permalink)

Pepsi and E3pO over at modhalo.net have put together a rap about Halo modding, based on Dr. Dre's 'The Watcher' - you can listen to it (and see the lyrics) at Pepness.com. Times, they are a changin'! (Louis Wu 14:43:29 UTC) (permalink)
