The Hacker
Time Glitch let us know put together The Hacker - I'm mentioning it because the Xbox LIVE message should be real. (Louis Wu 19:54:21 UTC) (permalink)
Backlash Action Trailer
bndud announced a new trailer for Backlash, a machinima series that follows the Robbers Unite machinima series 'Cops and Robbers'. Looks to be a mixture of Halo 2 and Halo 3 footage... first episode should be out on Friday. Keep your eyes peeled! (Louis Wu 15:29:26 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3: Confirmed Kills, Episode 10
A video series called 'Confirmed Kills' has released Episode 10 - it's a multikill special. Most of the kills seem relatively attainable by your average player - I'm front-paging this because this kind of series gets better with better clips, and they only get what's submitted to them. If you've got some cool kills, send them the clips! (Louis Wu 15:19:53 UTC) (permalink)
FB and Carbon Battling it out at WGC 2008 US Open
Over at Brightcove, there's a clip from a WGC 2008 US Open Halo 3 match between Final Boss and Carbon; you can't tell who wins it (it's just a random 2 minute clip, with gameplay mixed with shots of the players), but it's sort of fun. Maybe full games will come later. Looks like this was posted by eSports TV. (Louis Wu 15:17:04 UTC) (permalink)
Video interview with RvB's nico
So I'm ashamed to say, I haven't kept up on the RvB Sponsors forum as closely as I should have - which means I've missed some great content. Now, this content is only available to RvB sponsors, which (for most sites) would mean I'd pass over it in front-page news (we're all about open-source material, baby)... but heck, it's RvB. We ALWAYS mention RvB sponsor material. It's the best $10 you'll spend on Halo material, I think. The cool thing I noticed: there's an interview with nico, about RvB music, that was deleted from the Bonus DVD - nico discusses where some of this came from, how Tex's real name fits into things, and more evidence that RT hates - well, you'll have to watch to learn.

Conflict (Part 2 of 2)
shisno34 was the first to point out Arby 'n' the Chief Episode 12 - Conflict, Part 2 of 2. Will the Chief succeed in killing Todd and Travis? You'll have to watch to find out! (Louis Wu 12:54:56 UTC) (permalink)
There goes that 99% SLA
Whee doggies! I love leaving the country. This morning, I got an email from the company that hosts the files*.bungie.org servers. One of their data centers had an explosion that knocked out several walls and an electrical equipment room. All servers are fine... but those hosted in that building are not accessible until (at the earliest) later this afternoon. ('This afternoon' would be Sunday, central standard time - the center is in Dallas.) This affects a number of bungie.org sites - the most relevant to Halo visitors is HaloScreenshots. Apologies for the outage - but we should be back up and running in the next 12 hours sometime. (Louis Wu 11:53:32 UTC) (permalink)
