Grunt Herding
This took FAR too long to put online... but about 3 weeks ago, a handful of hard-working fans packed 450 Grunt Plushies into more than 300 separate bags, in preparation for delivery around the world. We took a few pictures, and thought you might want to see them. (Louis Wu 19:33:19 UTC) (permalink)
HCEA Skulls - the beginnings of a list
A number of the skulls - new and old - that are coming out in Halo: Anniversary were documented in the recent Behind-the-Scenes vid; JDQuackers took some screenshots. Take a look! (Further down in the thread two more that are mentioned, but not shown, are labeled.) (Louis Wu 17:00:50 UTC) (permalink)
Reach Map Packs - Fifty Percent Off
If you haven't purchased the first pair of Map Packs for Reach - now might be the time! According to Major Nelson, both packs are on the Deal of the Week list; starting tomorrow, they're 400 MS Points each! Thanks, Zeouterlimits. (Louis Wu 16:10:44 UTC) (permalink)
The Art of Building Worlds - Preview
io9 has posted an inside look at The Art of Building Worlds, officially being released today. There's concept art in the article that has NOT been seen on the web before. Check it out! Thanks, ncsuDuncan. (Louis Wu 15:05:57 UTC) (permalink)
H:A Campaign Gameplay Compilation
Over at NeoGAF, Kibbles went through the Behind the Scenes ViDoc 343 posted yesterday, and pulled out all the actual gameplay footage. If you want to see about 4 minutes of shots from Halo Anniversary's campaign, this vid's for you! (Louis Wu 15:02:15 UTC) (permalink)
10 of the Saddest Game Cancellations
Urban Reflex pointed us towards a GamingBolt list of 10 of the Saddest Game Cancellations... with one, in particular, of interest to Halo fans. Now I'm sad... (Louis Wu 14:58:52 UTC) (permalink)
ODST Tones on your Phone - now for iOS5
Back in December, Mid7night posted a series of ODST Phone sounds (replacement sounds to use on your phone, culled from ODST). Recently, UnrealCh13f modified these to make them iOS5-compatible (m4r format). Grab the zipped collection (394k) and enjoy! (The older link still works for iOS4 and below, as well as providing more generic .aif formats for other phones.) (Louis Wu 13:42:34 UTC) (permalink)
Samurai Fronk: Series Finale
JDQuackers brought us the Series Finale of Samurai Fronk, a rather disturbing creation from the mind of Hedgemony. Go enjoy it. (Louis Wu 13:33:42 UTC) (permalink)
Master Chief vs Doomguy - Death Battle!
Revision3 posted a Death Battle episode dedicated to the question "Who would win in a fight to the death: Master Chief or Doomguy?" I was entertained in spite of myself. Thanks, doober187. (Louis Wu 13:32:18 UTC) (permalink)
Hang 'em High flythrough (offscreen)
There's no official version yet, but a fan at NYCC has posted a captured version of the Hang 'em High flythrough shown last weekend. (Thanks to NeoGAF's Barrel Cannon for the heads-up.) (Louis Wu 13:32:00 UTC) (permalink)
Modding the Chief
The photo is pretty awful, but Laird's modification of a McFarlane Chief model is pretty cool! (Original is here, for comparison.)

Hell's Angel
Red vs Blue Season 9 Episode 16 is live at the Rooster Teeth website - Tex enjoys watching Church squirm, Simmons gives up on his teammates, and a vehicle that we'd ALL love to operate makes an appearance. Thanks, mattroe.
