Gameplay and Montage vids at H2F
Z, over at Halo2Forum.com, pointed out a pair of threads with a total of four downloads; the first thread contains two full games captured by ExiT WouNDz member Itwasluck - Game 1 is a CTF Midship game against a variety of players, game 2 is a KOTH Beaver Creek match against some top pro players. (ExiT WouNDz won the second game by a large margin - even though they were outkilled pretty thoroughly. They kept their focus on the game's goal, though - hill time - and they won because of it.) The second thread contains a pair of montage vids - both are short, I liked the first one better (though the music nearly gave me epileptic seizures). Everything is, of course, in WMP9 format. Go grab something. (Louis Wu 15:20:37 UTC) (permalink)
$@%*@$!!!
I may need to change the title of this newspost, to comply with RSS feed rules... but you should go read the One One Se7en it covers anyway. And make sure your sound is on... Update: I did have to change the title. Bugger. (Louis Wu 14:48:12 UTC) (permalink)
Sometimes, I hate MySQL.
As many of you have noticed - the server that hosts our forum (as well as the Fan Fiction comments section, and the ClanHBO forums) has been having problems for a couple of days. Hopefully, these will be ironed out today - please be patient! (Louis Wu 14:39:13 UTC) (permalink)
HCEC - Final Episodes
Dennis Powers wrote to point out that the final two episodes of season 2 of The Halo CE Chronicles have been posted to their video archive. The battle for the energy cannon wraps up in Episode 20... and the relationship between the commander and the station AI is elaborated in Episode 21. There are also some outtakes from the season in that final episode. (More detailed info can be found on the website.) As always, they're available in WMP9, QuickTime, and streaming Flash formats - go grab what works for you! (Louis Wu 14:35:53 UTC) (permalink)
Loose lips, and all that
Peter Moore gave a few interviews at the Tokyo Game Show - one went to Game Informer. This particular question and answer has already generated quite a bit of email traffic for us:
GI: Anything on Halo 3 yet?
Moore: Bungie is busy (laughs) The boys are busy.
This tidbit has been gleefully picked up by Xbox360News, which apparently is read by a lot of people who visit HBO, and is being touted as 'the first official confirmation that Halo 3 is in production'. To be clear: it's completely possible that this is exactly what Moore meant... but it is not official confirmation that Halo 3 is in production. It's a high-level Microsoft employee making a comment about their most important gaming franchise. Until you see something on Bungie.net, saying "We're working on Halo 3" - it's not official. Period. That said - the comment IS out there, we HAVE reported on it, you can stop emailing now. Thanks! (Louis Wu 13:58:32 UTC) (permalink)
