deviantHaloART
More deviantART rounded up by CaptainTony (including one of his own) - and I finally put together the fact that DA's X38 posts as Ken on NeoGAF! (Love his Emile sketch.) (Louis Wu 22:11:31 UTC) (permalink) 
Living Monument, hmm?
Imrane-117 brought our attention to some newly-registered domains - what do YOU think they mean? (Louis Wu 22:09:22 UTC) (permalink) 
Will Anniversary kick off a remake trend?
Financial Analyst Michael Pachter takes a look at the remaking of 'classic' games in light of the release of Halo Anniversary in his regular Pach-Attack! feature on Gametrailers - interesting to see this game being appraised so clinically! Thanks to ZZoMBiE13 for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 20:52:56 UTC) (permalink) 
Life-sized LEGO Sniper Rifle
B lack Six noticed a pretty killer life-sized LEGO Halo sniper rifle at The Brothers Brick - go check it out! (The final shot is money.)

Halo Waypoint Goodies Speaking of Halo Waypoint - if you visit today, there seems to be quite a bit of cool new content. Unfortunately, a Silverlight update my browsers prompted me for this morning has made much of it inaccessible. If you haven't updated, though, Grifball Highlight Frenzy 8 went live on Friday, and you can watch the first five games of the Instinct vs Infamous matchup at MLG Raleigh, back in August. An item that DOESN'T need Silverlight is the latest in-depth look at an asset from the Halo universe - this time around, it's the Covenant Phantom. Great pics! (Louis Wu 16:57:33 UTC) (permalink) 
We still wanna see your pumpkins (twss) It's a sad year here at bungie.org - it's the first time in 7 years that we're not hosting a pumpkin-carving contest for Halloween. That doesn't mean folks aren't carving Halo-related pumpkins, though! We've seen a couple - one on Halo Waypoint's twitter feed (sounds like there'll be a collection on Waypoint in the not-too-distant future), and one on Bungie's Twitter feed. Do you know of others? Tell us about 'em! (Louis Wu 16:48:33 UTC) (permalink) 
There's Something about Kira
wheeler noticed some similarities between the AI assist in Edgeworld and another AI you might be familiar with... (Louis Wu 12:06:16 UTC) (permalink) 
Halo 2 Delta Halo Ghost Launch
Wow... the dedication of some Halo tricksters blows me away. Grumpy sent along a link to a YouTube video (and a corresponding jumprs.org thread) showing him using a Pelican on Delta Halo to make it (in a ghost) all the way to the middle tower. There are a few examples of missed bounces - makes it really clear just how ridiculous this stunt is! Go watch. (Louis Wu 12:05:45 UTC) (permalink) 
Fan-Made Helmets for sale
Omega_East is selling a couple of helmets he's made - he needs to clear the space (and bring in a bit of cash for the next build). Both are linked from this page - there's a Carter helmet, and an unpainted Noble Six helmet. Check 'em out!

Halo Anniversary Skulls
Sam Becker let us know that he took the Skull screenshots from the recent BTS video and matched them up with their actual names and effects. Swing by HaloEasterEggs.net to see (or don't, if you'd rather figure them out on your own). (Louis Wu 12:04:25 UTC) (permalink)
