How to make cheese taste better.
Heh - TragicNocturne noticed a book cover in Barnes and Noble that contained... a pretty interesting weapon. (Here's the listing at Amazon - click the 'See larger image' for a bigger shot; here's a local copy in case that gets yanked at any point.) Blade wrote as well, and sent this version, in case the comparison wasn't obvious enough. Update: looks like QuickTactical was actually first with the notice of this one; he posted a description (one that sounds a lot like TragicNocturne's story, actually) over at HaloGrid a day and a half before TragicNocturne visited our forum. I gotta start reading HaloGrid's forum more often! (Louis Wu 23:48:45 UTC) (permalink)
Hypersoldier's cardboard Armor
And the cardboard stuff continues! Hypersoldier has been putting together a cardboard suit - you can see a series of pics on this page. (They were originally posted on our forum, linked from a DeviantART gallery - but this one should be a little easier to navigate from piece to piece.) (Louis Wu 16:45:24 UTC) (permalink)
Cardboard MA5B Followup
Steve finished up his cardboard MA5B yesterday, and took a few final pictures - check out his forum post! (Louis Wu 13:51:15 UTC) (permalink)
Explicitry Duet - now in QT
A few days ago, we mentioned a trailer for a new Halzred montage, called 'Explictry', being hosted by Halo2Forum. Halzred submitted this file to the MPRRS, as well, for feedback; he didn't want hosting (H2F does a fine job of that), but since the MPRRS passed it (handily), we're offering a QuickTime version for those who need it (33.3 mb). Nice editing! (Louis Wu 13:49:38 UTC) (permalink)
Podtacular PodTV Ep 2
Podtacular has released Episode 2 of PodTV - this one contains a legendary walkthrough of Cairo Station. Thanks to immortalthree for the heads-up (we sort of knew anyway - we're providing the hosting for the downloadable file - but we love it when folks keep us up-to-date on what's going on).

SCC's Unofficial Music Competition
Also on B.net is a report of the Unofficial Music Competition recently conducted by Seventh Column Contests, a Seventh Column chapter. There is a summary of the winners and honorable mentions - but no downloadable files. (I've already sent email to the coordinators, offering hosting space for winning entries and honorable mentions, but I'd like to make that offer publicly, as well; we'd love to let the community at large hear these files, so if you're in the winners' list, feel free to send along your file, and we'll share it with the world!) One of the participants that DIDN'T make it into the winners list posted his entry on our forum this morning, and I thought it was quite good. If that's one of the files that DIDN'T win, I REALLY want to hear the top tier! (Louis Wu 13:39:30 UTC) (permalink)
Xbox Live Evolved
B.net has a small note about Xbox Live Evolved, a new forum-based site that advertises that it's there to help you get your clan online, and facilitate clan-based community interaction. Seems like a pretty big claim - check 'em out! (Louis Wu 13:30:47 UTC) (permalink)
