Dodgeball was never this fun
Play Ball!... Hogball, that is. javacool and benjammin' have created a new multiplayer gametype... and the 20 mb, 3 and a half minute movie they created to show it off is simply hilarious. Check it out! (Sympathy goes out to banjammin'... who seemed to die a LOT.) The website link contains both the movie and a FAQ about how to play. (Movie mirrors, of course, are always welcome.)

Influx of reviews
Dug up another 17 Halo reviews around the net, and have added them to the Reviews database. Total is now 107 - the average score still hovers around 95%. (Louis Wu 15:21:27 UTC) (permalink)

Halo selling like hotcakes in EU
Thanks to Nick Rolfe, who sent along this link from the European Leisure Software Publishers Association - for the week ending 16th March 2002, Halo was second in total software sales of ALL games, in ALL formats; this is astounding, given that it was released 2 days before the week ended. Not too shabby! (Louis Wu 06:45:57 UTC) (permalink)
More mirror space
Mr. Zarquon points out that his Halo Movie Mirror page has been updated with much of the new Halo material out there - if you're having trouble with some of these movies, spread the download weath! (Louis Wu 06:14:28 UTC) (permalink)

Truth and Recon screenies added
We've added the 33 screenshots that go along with the Legendary Walkthrough posted a couple of days ago at Bungie's Tru7h and Reconciliation site to our Screenshots Database. Needless to say, some of these contain spoilers. (However, some are simply astounding.) (Louis Wu 03:50:50 UTC) (permalink)
Multiplayer highlight movies at Drunkgamers
Doh! I hate busy weekends, in terms of what they do to this site's timeliness. On Friday, we got word that Drunkgamers.com had put up the second part of their Multiplayer Pointers series, which contained a nice, short, insanely busy (for 2v2) 1-minute clip... and before we had time to post about it, Part 3 went up! This one shows a pretty incredible sniper shot - and also shows why playing 2v2 is good for snipers. :) (With 10 players and up, the sniper would have been dead 30 seconds before he ever got around to taking that shot...) Check 'em both out. (Louis Wu 02:05:03 UTC) (permalink)
