Casualty of naming
Tom Murphy sends in the second installment of his 'Casualties of War' series - it's a little confusing, since it 1) has a small section that got left out of the introduction, and 2) is labeled Part 2, though the body says it's Part 1 (the real Part 1 was the introduction). My bad for labeling it this way - sorry. Anyway, go read it (by itself, or together with the first installment) in our Fan Fiction section! (Louis Wu 22:19:07 UTC) (permalink)
Mmmph!
Goodness. Remember those fraternity pranks, where they tried to stuff as many people as possible into a car? TitaniumPez has gone the other way - and stuffed as many vehicles as possible into a small cave on Sidewinder. I'd hate to try coming through that teleporter now... Check it out on our Gameplay Tricks page. (Louis Wu 22:00:19 UTC) (permalink)
New Fanfic-inspired art
Jason O'Brien has created another image for the Fan Fiction series, 'The Wanderers'. We've added the image link to the story for which it exists, and placed it by itself in our Miscellaneous Art section. Take a look! (Louis Wu 21:33:24 UTC) (permalink)
Explanation behind the obsession
While on the subject of the Psyjnir Complex... seems they've got a new comics storyline started. Take a look in their Comics section... (Louis Wu 20:46:03 UTC) (permalink)
Soil video gets a home
Psyrixx, of the Psyjnir Complex, has graciously offered to host the newest Halo music video - you can grab it from the Complex's Hotline server. (Again, if you don't have a Hotline client, grab one (they're free) from BigRedH.) Thanks, Psyrixx! (Other mirror offers gratefully accepted as well, of course.) (Louis Wu 20:38:48 UTC) (permalink)
MC plays C-S
Whoa - Halo in Counter-Strike... nearly there! Check out the images of strykerwolf's latest work in this forum post. I just... wow. (Louis Wu 16:49:49 UTC) (permalink)
New music vid looking for a home
The music videos keep coming in... this time, we have a 4-minute, 40 megabyte video that has E3 2000/nVidia commercial footage put to Soil's 'Halo', created by Spike Bebop. It currently has NO homes - anyone willing to step forward to mirror it? Drop us a line! (Louis Wu 16:40:47 UTC) (permalink)
Halo SETI Team 7 day stats posted
The Halo SETI Marines hold their own this week - a new member joins, with almost 1500 units, nicely augmenting the team total (welcome, highlander!). Int_21 holds on to Le Crunch Honneur... but *-=SHARkY=-* is coming up quickly from behind. Fadecourt leaps 70 teammates to take the Frogblast award this week. How did you do? Check the 7 day stats to find out! (Louis Wu 16:21:10 UTC) (permalink)
There's blood on them thar walls!
Well, kiss mah grits - another easter egg has surfaced. Space Cowboy has discovered some graffiti left on the Maw by Ferrex, one of Halo's level designers. Now what I want to know is... did he make it to the Longsword after finding this? Check out all the details on our Easter Eggs page. (Louis Wu 06:14:14 UTC) (permalink)
On Top of old Blood Gulch...
Another victim of our overwork... Amechwarrior uploaded a series of pics showing his (and his brother's) efforts to get on top of Blood Gulch - the first batch went up almost a week ago, though he was still a good distance from the top. On Saturday, he uploaded a new batch, showing what the map looks like from above... way above. (If we'd been more on top of things, the folks who opened up Random Vector yesterday would have realized that their February Challenge had been beaten... before they even posted it! Our bad.) In any event, Amechwarriors pics are now immortalized on our Gameplay Tricks page - check 'em out! (Louis Wu 05:12:19 UTC) (permalink)
Halo movie poster
Heh - noticed this over at the Battleground: Halo forums - someone's gone and created a Halo Movie poster. Nice work! (Louis Wu 04:01:20 UTC) (permalink)
New video mirrored
Brian Towne has mirrored the newest music video, since Angelfire seems to have closed down the original site. You can now find it here, at mythica.org. Thanks, Brian! (Louis Wu 03:24:47 UTC) (permalink)
OXM images made into a mural
DT_Spike snagged the images from the OXM scan we put up yesterday, and did some airbrushing, a little blurring, some editing... came up with a pretty slick mural (almost 2000 pixels wide). Check it out in our Miscellaneous Art section. (Louis Wu 01:54:30 UTC) (permalink)
