Stubbs the Zombie - double the fun! mejp44 noticed an article at TeamXbox about Wideload's upcoming Halo-engined game, Stubbs the Zombie - they've added split-screen 2-player Coop. Now you can zombify Punchbowl... with a buddy! (Louis Wu 16:47:56 UTC) (permalink) 
Fight the Flood Update Wow, I nearly missed this one - the headline doesn't change much, so you have to pay close attention to dates. Over at Bungie.net, SketchFactor has posted an update on the Fight the Flood campaign - they've sold nearly 11,000 shirts, collecting more than $160,000 for the American Red Cross Katrina relief effort. Wow! Sketch says that while there are still plenty of shirts left, when these are gone, they aren't printing more - go grab a piece of history, and in the process help out victims of Hurricane Katrina!

Lamertag. Stuntmutt takes issue with text embellishment of gamertags - read today's One One Se7en for more details. (Louis Wu 15:14:31 UTC) (permalink) 
XBL Roadmap - and Halo's Place Over at the San Jose Mercury News, there's an article looking at Halo 2 on Xbox Live (and Live in general), written by Dean Takahashi (last mentioned here 3 years ago, when his book on the plan behind the Xbox was released). Interesting read. (Louis Wu 15:09:46 UTC) (permalink) 
Friday Fiction It's been a few days since the Fan Fiction section was updated - 11 new pieces for you today. Go read. (Louis Wu 15:08:16 UTC) (permalink) 
H=MC2 Podcast Ep 002 - The Codex The second H=MC2 podcast has been posted - Halo news roundup and commentary, plus an interview with Alex Winn, part of the Codex team. (It's not a 'live' interview; Alex answered a series of pre-planned questions, so there's no interaction with the hosts of the podcast - but it's still a good listen; nice questions, nice answers.) The overall podcast is 1:08 long, and weighs in at 31 mb. Thanks to [HC]D-Man for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 13:40:37 UTC) (permalink) 
Briar's Armor second 2000+ sale Just a followup on the second Briar's Armor eBay auction (it ended yesterday) - the green suit sold for $2,076.99. Not bad! (Louis Wu 13:24:50 UTC) (permalink) 
Giving Puma a Bad Name Today's Halo Babies comic was the runner-up in their Red vs Blue contest a while back; it was written by PBDemon (and drawn, as usual, by Gruntsbane). Go read! (Louis Wu 13:08:11 UTC) (permalink) 
Humping Expired Hitchhikers Once again nearly Halo-free in its content (there is a small mention of some Halo 2 fans near the end), but Frankie's put up part 2 of his Tokyo Game Show impressions article over at Bungie.net. Go see what's coming! Thanks, Anton P. Nym. (Louis Wu 13:03:08 UTC) (permalink)
