The Toolbars Continue Another HBO toolbar, this one from Keyes. No pic, but in his words, " a news searcher, popup blocker, chatroom for toolbar users, handy dandy links, quick link to HBO, and a scrolling front page news ticker." Works in IE and Firefox (on XP). Sounds handy! (Louis Wu 18:40:11 UTC) (permalink) 
The Halo Table David "wlkng nghtmre" Antunes sent in a bunch of pics showing off a table he made last year - the ultimate TV stand, as he puts it. Pretty fun battle scene! Check it out. (Louis Wu 17:21:54 UTC) (permalink) 
The Squadron Ep 5: Location Location Location Broken Console Productions has posted Episode 5 of their ongoing machinima, The Squadron - grab it from their Videos page. Things are about to heat up... writing is a fun mixture of serious and silly, filming is topnotch. Go watch! (19.3 mb in WMP9 format, 18.1 in QT.) (Louis Wu 16:32:52 UTC) (permalink) 
Pick Up Artist. Hehe - I have SO acted out today's One One Se7en in real games... man. Sometimes, a comic just hits home. (Though Stuntmutt assures me that he had someone completely different in mind when he wrote this particular strip...) (Louis Wu 15:49:31 UTC) (permalink) 
Ode to the Zed Word TychoVII sent word of a video he and some friends finished up over the summer. In his words, it's "a blend of the infamous Halo 2 gametype 'Zombies' and the movie 'Shaun of the Dead' using songs from the SOTD soundtrack." It's funny, well-filmed, and showed me a number of cool jumping tricks to use in my next game of Zombies. Quality is quite good. It's available from their server (QuickTime format, 63.7 mb, over 10 minutes long), though I'd host it in a heartbeat - it's definitely worth watching. Grab a copy, and enjoy!

I Love Bees, Reordered - Parts 7 and 8 Two more episodes have gone up in Webshift's reordered I Love Bees audio files. Things are starting to get crazy - go listen! (Louis Wu 15:19:03 UTC) (permalink) 
More montages at H2F Z sends word of another pair of montages at Halo2Forum.com - one is a trailer - Crypty teases for his upcoming montage vid with very nice editing reminiscent of Dan Chosich's Framework vid from a couple of years ago (15.8 mb), and OscarMayerNinja's Montage 4 is five minutes of effect-laden sticks and snipes (63.3 mb). Both are WMP9 format. Go watch. (Louis Wu 10:49:01 UTC) (permalink) 
More on Origen360 Well, I was wrong - there IS some Halo-related content in the OrigenXbox360.com website... the TeamXbox people snagged the XML file that contains all (well, maybe not all) the actual content, hidden or not, on the site - you'd think they'd have learned to protect that by now - and apparently, two of the available spots to visit Origen will be taken up by the top of the Double-Team leaderboard at Bungie.net. Go read the rest of the article for more details, including info on the OTHER spots. (We're not going to be announcing more news about this unless it's Halo-related - but it seems that SOME news, at least, WILL be.) (Louis Wu 10:37:28 UTC) (permalink)
