Fails of the Weak 179
Nikko B201 is back in the saddle with the first mention of Fails of the Weak 179 - AH.com or YouTube, it's (again) a mix of Halos - this time it's Reach and Halo 4. Go watch! (Louis Wu 21:01:10 UTC) (permalink)

LEGO Roundup
We've pointed out a lot of LEGO creations over the years - scarab stopped in with a couple of links that show off a whole bunch. Some I've seen before, some are brand-new to me. Pretty amazing collection of creativity! Take a look. (Louis Wu 21:00:25 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3 on Feminist Friday
Over at Comparative Geeks, there's a look at the Halo 3 titles (Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST) in the context of feminist-related tropes. And neither game comes off too well. Interesting read!

Detox :: The Final Montage
RVideo shot us a note about the final Halo 3 montage from Detox - 15 minutes of effects and gameplay. Nice work, overall! Check it out. (Louis Wu 20:51:21 UTC) (permalink)
This traffic is not a natural formation.
Back in September, we mentioned an upcoming personal digital assistant, available at some point to owners of Windows phones, based on Halo's Cortana - The Verge has more info about that project, which may actually be usable sometime this spring. Beorn (and others) are less than thrilled. How do you feel? (Louis Wu 20:50:01 UTC) (permalink)
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
VideoGamer.com noticed a Halo Waypoint tweet posted earlier this week - a suggestion that the return of Master Chief might be coming sooner than we thought. Is this a coy denial of the rumor that Halo 5 (or whatever it's called) has been pushed back to 2015? Or is it a hint that we might see a new title (maybe Halo 2 Anniversary) sooner than the 2014 holiday season? Or is it just a piece of fan art that someone at Waypoint liked enough to retweet? Only time will tell. (Louis Wu 20:32:30 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 4 WTF Moments: Jump The Shark
The Tyrant has released the penultimate episode of his Halo 4 WTF Moments videos - all that remains is the finale. This moment is frustrating - but not, unfortunately, uncommon. It comes with some commentary he originally meant to use in his LASO Challenge series (he went a different direction with that, ultimately) and ends with a fun montage of epic LASO bites. Go watch!

It's not Wednesday, but...
We neglected to remind you of this week's Halo Bulletin - it's full of info like news of a Community Playdate, the latest matchmaking update, a Spartan Assault update (Xbox One only), as well as the usual screenshot gallery and a pretty nifty montage. As always, it's also available in our Halo Bulletin Archive. Go read! (Louis Wu 20:23:48 UTC) (permalink)

Escalation heats up
Comic Book Resources has posted a quick summary of Halo: Escalation #6 (coming in May; do a local 'Find' on the page to get down to 'Escalation') - it ties up a couple of longstanding loose ends that canon fans might be pretty interested in. (The cover art, created by Sparth, is spectacular.) Thanks, Grizzlei. (Louis Wu 20:18:06 UTC) (permalink)
