The Pillar of Art
bungie.org is proud to announce its first-ever Art Contest. The Pillar of Art will reward artists who work in traditional media - no digital art allowed! Prizes include cold, hard cash and some super-cool stuff from Bungie. Read the details on the Pillar of Art page! (Before going in, don't forget to admire the front artwork, done by Ian McConville, of MacHall fame.) (Louis Wu 19:52:13 UTC) (permalink)
In Too Deep
Mike Miller has created a movie called 'In Too Deep (Things to Do in Halo When You're Bored)' - it's 6:22 long, 20.7 mb large, and pretty much covers everything in our Tips and Tricks section in one easy lesson. (Okay, not everything. But an awful lot of it.) Mix in some humor, nice timing, a decent score, and a Monty Python quote I've been waiting to see in a Halo movie for over a year, and you've got entertainment. Currently housed at mythica.org and the Psyjnir.com Hotline server- but we're happy to post mirrors if you want to provide bandwidth for this. (Louis Wu 19:14:42 UTC) (permalink)
Mac Halo playable soon
MacCentral has posted a project status update from Westlake Interactive, the folks that are working on the Mac port of Halo.
Westlake said that's in "Prototype" stage, an important development milestone that precedes the game's playable status. Bold hopes to ship the game almost concurrently with its PC counterpart's release, expected later in 2003.
So - not playable yet, but getting there! Thanks to potifer for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 18:46:08 UTC) (permalink)
A Movie Star Returns
Dark Helmet is back. After a spell away from Halo moviemaking, he's submitted a slew of films in recent days. Two new ones today; a 250+ meter jump on the level Halo (measured with a Navpoint), and a truly high-flying banshee. Both posts lead to WMV vids. (Louis Wu 14:44:53 UTC) (permalink)
A year down the road, still finding reviews
RevolutionSF reviewed Halo about a year ago - dr_saius discovered it today. We've added it to our Reviews database. They also reviewed The Fall of Reach, at about the same time. (They liked it.) (Louis Wu 14:33:44 UTC) (permalink)
