Massive Halo Theme for Windows package
St. Joan, an old-time Bungie fan, has submitted a pretty comprehensive Halo theme for Windows-based machines. It's rather large (9 megs), because it contains 5 separate themes, each with "multiple resolution wallpaper, original icons, cursors, and MP3 layer sound files." The quality is quite high - so if you're in the market for a Halo theme, and you're running Windows, give it a whirl. (It was submitted as a self-extracting zip file that actually required some rearranging once I got it installed... so I've re-zipped it so as to include the (separate) readme. There's a full readme IN the package... but getting to the package might be tricky; better to have the text in front of you. The downside - you'll need to unzip it twice. :( ) We've hosted it here, at HBO - but if anyone wanted to mirror this, just let us know! (Louis Wu 19:17:27 UTC) (permalink)

Bandwidth relief
Thanks to Pez Mohr, who's added another mirror for the 120 mb version of the Matrix movie. All current mirrors can be found on the Matrix Mirrors page... and we'll be adding this movie (and Dan Chosich's Reminisance) to the Movie Database soon. (Louis Wu 14:34:59 UTC) (permalink)
Lookit Them Teeth, Otis!
New material at Bungie.net... the big one is the Halo Tournament Strategy Guide, written by Yeroen. Lots of goodness here. However, don't overlook the ubercool desktop (scroll to the very bottom) showing the Legendary Skull you get when you complete a level on Legendary difficulty - in hi-res goodness.

Covert Covenant
dogsounds sent in another Halo funny - we've added it to our Miscellaneous Art section. To put it simply - this guy rocks. (Go visit the website, for more comic goodness... non-Halo-related, but good stuff.) (Louis Wu 03:47:01 UTC) (permalink)
