Bungie.net overhaul, new news
If you visit Bungie.net, you'll notice a new layout, for the first time in a month. And new news, even - a reminder that the upcoming ViDoc will hit the interwebz on Thursday, and a small note about the facelift itself. Go explore! (I like the new Halo Universe page.)

Iridescent
IESUproductions stopped by with a link to 'Iridescent' - a Halo retrospective, set to Linkin Park's Iridescent. Cutscene footage from all Halo games is matched to the song's lyrics in a tribute to the official passing of the Halo torch from Bungie to 343 today. Go watch! (Louis Wu 20:08:55 UTC) (permalink)
Tyrant's ODST Legendary Walkthrough - Coastal Highway
Daniel 'Tyrant' Morris sent word that the last chapter of his Legendary ODST saga, covering Coastal Highway, is now online - the most difficult mission on Halo 3 or ODST has now been beaten - with no deaths! (Can you find the easter egg?) (Louis Wu 18:09:22 UTC) (permalink)
Alien Horizons
Sniper94 painted a Halo screenshot. With paint. He wanted you to see it. (Louis Wu 17:58:49 UTC) (permalink)
I Less Than 343
Greenskull put together a song called 'I Less than 343' - it's an ode to the franchise overseers, and it's full of Halo love (and far too much tongue). Check it out!

Star Wars vs Halo
Mid7night found a fan-made space-based RTS called 'Star Wars vs Halo' - you can see a trailer (story-based, no gameplay) here, an announcement trailer showing promo gameplay here, and a gameplay demo made by the Funny Halo Productions crew here. The Alpha can be downloaded from MediaFire (89 mb). Intriguing! (Louis Wu 17:49:15 UTC) (permalink)
Translated Sangheili Dictionary
Brute Honour Guard pointed out a document (originally posted by its author on Bungie.net) showing one fan's attempt to do some translating of the language we hear from the Sangheili in-game. At the very least, he gets kudos for the systematic approach! Check this out. (If the mediafire link goes down, let us know; we'll put up a local copy.) (Louis Wu 17:05:31 UTC) (permalink)
NOBLE 06
CaptainTony is back with another find from DeviantART - NOBLE 06 is not QUITE as epic as the stuff he brought us yesterday, but it's still pretty cool! (Louis Wu 17:04:20 UTC) (permalink)
Case File 01.045
Red vs Blue Season 9, Episode 7 is now online for everyone - nice mix of Freelancer drama and Caboose silliness. Go watch! Thanks, mattroe. (Louis Wu 17:03:29 UTC) (permalink)
See? ARs CAN be useful.
Minor Harry Potter spoilers... but CortanaVII showed us a video that shows off the ending of Harry Potter vs Halo. I giggled.

Offcuts
Hedgemony posted a bunch of deleted scenes from his 117x5 project - the man has an eye, and it's amazing. (They're not really deleted scenes; they're images he didn't get finished in time to add to the project. Absolutely worth perusing.)

Horrible Origins: Creation Episode 1
Avcracy pointed out the first in a new series - Horrible Origins: Creation Episode 1. This is a series that will take old vids from Firelight Studios, and make fun of them, a la MST3K (no silhouettes, though).
