The Mona Lisa - all 11 parts
If you never got around to watching The Mona Lisa, the 11-part motion comic created from a Halo: Evolutions story, Waypoint has gathered all the parts together in on easy-to-navigate page. Check it out! (Louis Wu 17:22:17 UTC) (permalink)
Dan Ayoub holds forth at Gamescom
goCHIEFgo pointed out a pair of Gamescom interviews - both Gamespot and Germany's GamingClerks talked to Dan Ayoub about Halo: Anniversary, and you can see what he had to say to both. (Not surprisingly, much of the info is the same in both interviews.) Tiny hints about Halo 4, even! (Louis Wu 15:52:04 UTC) (permalink)
Fails of the Weak 48
Fails of the Weak 48 was released yesterday - as always, some fun failures, and some great commentary from Jack and Geoff. Go watch! (Louis Wu 15:45:57 UTC) (permalink)
Uh - why? Uh, why? Uh, WHY WON'T HE DIE?
It's definitely NSFW, but Euee's Cee-Lo Green parody is pretty funny. (Looks like there's at least ONE more person that should be happy that the upcoming TU allows DMR bloom to be turned off!) Thanks, CyReN.

Halo Reach Launch Montage
Mike Sellers made a Halo Reach Launch Day montage (some time ago, obviously) - but just recently uploaded it to the internet. Should give you a little taste of the excitement felt last September! (Louis Wu 15:39:59 UTC) (permalink)

slumberLAN - Tourney in MN
LazerBlader sent word that he's part of a gaming club at the University of Minnesota campus called Teh Pwn Gaming, and they're hosting an event called slumberLAN next week. It's a large overnight LAN party with corporate sponsors (MLG, NOS, Microsoft) - with good stuff to win. (For example, each first place team member in the Halo: Reach tourney will go home with a Vibras 5.1 Surround Sound Xbox 360 Headset.) Registration happens on their website - if you're nearby, you might want to stop by next week! (Louis Wu 15:35:55 UTC) (permalink)
Flood Campaign Teaser Trailer 1
Well, this is pretty interesting - we got an email from Flood Campaign, the group behind a Halo CE campaign mod in which you play from the perspective of the Flood. (They've got a page up at HaloMaps, and another at ModDB.) Check out their first Teaser Trailer!

Halo Teach: The Great Emu War
NsU Soldier pointed out the newest Halo Teach, a series of videos where Master Chief, in a blazer and bow-tie, summarizes famous battles in history. This new episode describes The Great Emu War, an engagement fought by an Australian major against... a flock of birds. Fascinating stuff!

Being Indiana Jones
MSNBC's In-Game has an interesting article from a British psychologist who explains why we have so much fun playing Halo games. (You probably know this already - but it's a nice summary, and contains some great quotes.) Thanks, William Spurgeon. (Louis Wu 13:11:11 UTC) (permalink)
