Halo 2 coming to MacOSX!
rapture sent along a link to the Halo2pc forum, where he'd posted a Press Release from Edelman Worldwide, announcing Halo 2 for MacOSX, coming this fall! (It will run only on Intel dual-core processors - Steve Jobs wants to prove that the OSX operating system is more powerful than Vista when both are running on the same hardware.) Go read!

Podtacular Update (56)
Podtacular Episode 56 was posted last night - a general update show, with lots of... talk. Go listen. Thanks, Fr3d-105. (Louis Wu 19:22:12 UTC) (permalink)
When April Fools gets Lame
Xboxic previewed Halo 3. Lamely. (I say that because I can't justify ignoring it, but they really didn't do a very good job.) 'First' goes to Konrad, who next time shouldn't post stuff this bad. (Louis Wu 19:12:31 UTC) (permalink)
I'm so confused.
Red vs Blue Episode 77 - The Arrival - has been posted for sponsors. Currently it's only available as a QuickTime - but other formats should be coming soon. I'm not even going to BEGIN telling you what it's about - but more happens in 7 minutes than has happened in months. There's a - um... and a - er... and Tucker - eep... and then Donut - oh, dang, just go download it. Why leave one cliffhanging storyline at the end of the season when you can leave a dozen? Looks like Kraken was first. (Louis Wu 19:01:11 UTC) (permalink)
They Like Pink.
The HBO Helljumpers have left the HBO fold... and become the PMS Helljumpers. We wish them well. Thanks to MereCatfish for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 13:31:11 UTC) (permalink)
Halo for the Nintendo DS
It's everywhere these days. The folks at DS-Play got word back from Bungie that they (Bungie) would be showing a new version, playable on the DS, at E3 this year. Swing by and read the email, check out the pics. (Louis Wu 12:51:08 UTC) (permalink)
The Squadron, Ep 17
The Squadron, Episode 17 has been released - 6 minutes long, 2.8 mb. You can grab it in WMP9 format from their site, or in QuickTime from us. (Louis Wu 12:47:04 UTC) (permalink)
One One Se7en - The Book
Stuntmutt's finally gone and done it; he's compiled the first 200 strips into an actual book, tossed in some exclusive content - and is selling the finished product. Looks fantastic! For a huge dose of corn all in one convenient place, stop by his blog for ordering instructions. (Louis Wu 11:58:51 UTC) (permalink)
No Remorse Released
NeuroKoNeza stopped by our forum to point out that No Remorse, a very cool-looking HaloCE map (we mentioned it here, and more screens showed up on our forum a few days ago), is now finished and ready for download. There's a screenshot in the new forum post (more in the one from last week), and the download is 21 mb. Go get it! (Louis Wu 11:55:07 UTC) (permalink)
Halo - the MMO
We got a press release from Jagex, the Runescape guys. There's a new MMO in town, folks! Check it out; not coming anytime soon, but geez... I'm drooling. (Louis Wu 11:48:34 UTC) (permalink)
Team3D Gearing Up Again
Team3D is getting back into shape after taking some time off - F13ND interviewed Hotshy about what's coming up for them. Discussion of the MLG2006 season, and more. Go read! (Louis Wu 11:40:33 UTC) (permalink)
Halo on the PSP - finally!
Mintz sent us a link to an article on Halo: Portable that shows how a team of hackers got Halo running on a PSP. Check it out! (Louis Wu 11:20:46 UTC) (permalink)
Halo at I-Con
Devastator (who we've mentioned in the past) went to the I-Con Sci-Fi convention in New York last weekend - and won first prize for his MC armor costume. Check out the pics! (Louis Wu 11:18:12 UTC) (permalink)
New Vids at H2F
Two new movies of note over at Halo2Forum.com. The first is a dual montage from Wedow and Vinny Jones; it's pretty cool, because Wedow did a fantastic job of color-coding the clips to let you know who was playing. (Watch it - it'll make more sense once you do.) This one's 128 mb, in WMP9 format. Then there's another great gameplay vid from Xit Woundz - Killer N filmed a TS game on Ivory Tower against Str8 Rippin. 70.4 mb, WMP9 format. Go grab! (Louis Wu 11:10:41 UTC) (permalink)
Who was MC's Grandfather?
Pak noticed a Halo 3 mention in yesterday's Press Start to Play. Don't tell Shishka. (Louis Wu 10:37:57 UTC) (permalink)
Shut Up.
The Bungie Weekly Update is up - and though the date on the top of this page reads April 1, this update was posted on March 31 at Bungie.net - which means you should be pretty safe from April Fools-type jokes. Frankie debunks a rumor, sort of debunks a second one, tosses fans a REALLY nice musical bone, talks to Mat Noguchi, and finally - FINALLY - divulges a few tidbits about Bungie's next project. You can read it at Bungie.net, or you can read it in our Weekly Update Archive. And who was first? Frankie, of course. (Louis Wu 01:20:57 UTC) (permalink)
