Halo news back Thursday, December 19, 2002 Halo news forward

Pretty pictures
A couple of cool sketches from Tina C. (including a Christmas one), and a very nice composite by Ross Mills (would easily serve as a desktop image, but I was working on Miscellaneous Art, so...) - all can be found in the Miscellaneous Art section. (Louis Wu 22:19:07 UTC) (permalink)

PC Mag says Halo's the best
Lophan points out that the January 2003 issue of PC Magazine lists Halo as one of the best products of 2002 (yes, even though it was an Xbox exclusive for the entire year). Their description of the game is a little odd:

"As the Master Chief, you can shoot with semiautomatic pistols, rocket launchers, and assault rifles. At the same time, you can raid underground labs and rescue fallen comrades. Prepare yourself for a major story twist in the middle."

But hey - press is press, and it's actually something for a PC magazine to vote a console game 'one of the best products of the year'. It'll probably win again for 2003, since it'll be a PC game during that year... (Louis Wu 21:52:19 UTC) (permalink)

Coming Back
stupid silence dropped off a desktop showing characters he thinks he'll see again. You'll find it in our Wallpaper section. (Louis Wu 21:48:38 UTC) (permalink)

More Halo Boot Images
Noctavis found another OSX boot image from Jonathan Chapman - you can download it from ResExcellence. (Older boot images from Chapman can still be found in our Miscellaneous Art section...) (Louis Wu 21:34:00 UTC) (permalink)

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
Hickadam has done it again. His earlier 'A**hole' video set all sorts of popularity records... because it was hilarious, and because the timing was simply spectacular. He's released a holiday movie, to begin to get you in the spirit of the season (something tells me we're going to be seeing quite a lot of this sort of thing), and once again he's provided you with three minutes of reasons to love December. We currently have it listed at Mythica.org, Pez's FTP server, and Psyjnir.com... but we'd love more mirrors for this. It's available in both Windows Media and QuickTime versions - check out our Mirrors list! (Louis Wu 21:25:16 UTC) (permalink)

Halo mural found
Xavier De Coster discovered another version of the gorgeous mural first seen on the cover of the September 2002 Edge Magazine. It's clearly created from the original artwork... which leads me to believe that out there, somewhere, that original artwork exists, in beautiful, hi-res, non-watermarked form. Oooh... in the meantime, go grab a copy of this one from GameWallpapers.com! (Louis Wu 18:39:08 UTC) (permalink)
