Another Data Drop is live at Halo Waypoint - go read Red Flag (and Bravado) intel from ONI! Thanks, CaneCutter. (Louis Wu 20:04:31 UTC) (permalink)
Movie rumors fade
Remember that story we mentioned a couple of days ago, about a MS press kit talking of a Halo movie coming soon? Yeah, well, as you might have guessed... it wasn't accurate. Thanks, Beckx. (Louis Wu 14:58:02 UTC) (permalink)
Faces of the Ghost
Leviathan dropped off another piece for the Fistful of Arrows Adjunct - this is backstory about Emile, and his out-of-the-ordinary helmet. That Levi is thinking about ways to explain some of the more confusing parts of Halo canon speaks strongly to his love for the universe! Go check out this fascinating page.

Skulls for Tots - Test Run
Paul Ference sent us a link to Skulls for Tots - from what I can understand, they're planning to raise money for Child's Play by playing Halo marathons (co-op, Legendary) - and to keep things interesting, the more money they get, the more skulls are activated. They're doing a test run on Halo: Reach tonight at 6:30 CST - stop by their live stream and watch!

Reach Customz Ep 2: Plasmaball
Timgie let us know that his new series, Reach Customz, now has a second episode - this one looks at Plasmaball. I could have sworn we highlighted this gametype before - but I can't find a link. It's quite a lot of fun - go check out the video!

Halo: Reach Stat Checker v1.1
Shadow8P dropped in to announce an update to his Halo: Reach Stat Checker - now it shows Grifball stats, and lets you look at more stats at once. Windows-only. Go grab a copy! Update: dang, it's already up to 1.2! Now it has a new screen that doesn't rely on scroll bars. Take a look! (Louis Wu 13:27:57 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Wars: What Might Have Been
OXM UK has put together an article about what was cut from Halo Wars during development - one of the big things was splitscreen gameplay. Unfortunately, the actual article is behind a paywall (you can download it for a fee - if you've got a credit card with a UK billing address). Thanks to ElzarTheBam for the heads-up.

Fanboy Rehab 101: How I learned to love Halo
Attack of the Fanboy has an article from someone who hated Halo for all the wrong reasons (without ever having played it), but then came around after actually trying it. A fine moral is included.
