Goose Checka told us that GrifballHub has picked a winner for their 1000 Article Celebration Contest - check out this LEGO Grifball stop-motion video, made by Halo7Jet and AlExThEnIcE. Great work! Loved the spawnkilling. (Might be fun if we could do the martial arts stuff too...) (Louis Wu 20:05:47 UTC) (permalink) 
Arby 'n' The Chief: Dough Eyes Naopao Vang let us know about Arby 'n' the Chief's latest Episode - Dough Eyes has Chief shooting fish in a barrel - except it is a river. Excuse me... I feel the need to eat a Toblerone. (Louis Wu 20:00:36 UTC) (permalink)

Hair Is For Suckers GamesRadar recently did a feature on Gaming's Baldest Space Marines. Halo's own Jun-266, star of Fistful of Arrows and you know, Halo: Reach, made the list of gaming's gritty smooth-topped warriors. Sadly and somewhat surprisingly, 343's shiny stalwart Frank O'Connor was not a part of the feature, and was unable to be reached for comment at the time of printing.

Bow before the grandmaster The Orange County Register has a feature piece on Matt Piper, a 16-year-old professional Halo player. Piper plays for the team Believe the Hype, which is currently playing in the MLG event in Anaheim this weekend. Kudos to Ian Hamilton for a well-written, journalistic piece. Please, for the sake of great writing and an eye for detail, give this a read! (Hitmonchan 10:00:14 UTC) (permalink) 
Sad times at Garfield High MachinimaRevive told us of "Clash and Desire," a new series that follows Andrew, a high school student whose senior year isn't what it's cracked up to be. Go look! (Hitmonchan 09:54:34 UTC) (permalink) 
A moment of silence for grammar Naopao Vang (Can I have your name?) let us know about "Dough Eyes," the latest "Arby 'n' the Chief" episode. I can't watch too much "Arby" -- I'm an impressionable young man, and after awhile I start talking like the Chief. I have the same problem when I watch "Parks and Rec." (This is how you eat it!) Go watch. (Hitmonchan 09:42:04 UTC) (permalink) 
Apparently, my invitation was lost in the mail George R. R. Martin, the man responsible for "A Song of Ice and Fire," stopped by the Bungie HQ on Friday. (Pic for proof.) During his trip to the sepulchral realm, Mr. Martin learned exactly what Bungie's next game is, but he's not talking. For shame! (Thanks for the heads up, jarsp!) (Hitmonchan 09:18:41 UTC) (permalink) 
Through rock and metal TheSparbiter is back with another Halo music video. This one features Xerjester's "Lament Metal," a sweeping metal song ripe with crunchy riffs and foreign plaints. Check it out, and be sure to let him know what you think in our forums! (Hitmonchan 09:07:45 UTC) (permalink) 
Active Playlist repository GodlyPerfection informed us of a playlist repository created by fellow Reaching Perfection member External Memory. The archive, broken down by active playlists, contains the latest matchmaking gametypes to help forgers test their maps using the most up-to-date settings. This plus FyreWulff's Reach Map Repository will be handy for recreating the matchmaking experience in customs. (Hitmonchan 08:48:22 UTC) (permalink) 
Mona Lisa 9 The ninth part (!!) of "The Mona Lisa" is now online. How many parts are left? Not that I'm complaining -- this is a fantastic series. Thanks, Deepblue! (Hitmonchan 08:38:44 UTC) (permalink)
