MC X Tekken X Street Fighter = A New NotCanon.net
Elzar "The News" the Bam dropped by with a link to an article from OXM UK that talks about how Capcom tried to get Master Chief into the upcoming Street Fighter X Tekken (as well as Marcus Fenix from the Gears of War franchise. Unfortunately, it wasn't to be, but it would certainly have been interesting to see John-117 take on Panda! And disturbing, of course. Also related, GrimBrother "Attention Hog" One (wait that's me) ran across a slightly-related article on IGN where they muse that having an energy sword-wielding Covenant Elite as DLC in Soul Caliber V would be pretty awesome. I would have to agree. How about you? (GrimBrother One 20:58:23 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Reach Tricks Ep 39 - Mini Spartan
I'm not at all sure what I just watched - but CMNeir sent us a link to a video showing you how to become mini-Spartans on The Package. They're so cute! (Louis Wu 18:33:25 UTC) (permalink)
Heroes and Villians, Typographical Style
mc leprechaun came by with a link to a very cool page of artwork - Josip Kelava created a bunch of fan art where the typography is directed by the subject matter itself - and Halo's Master Chief made the list. Love it! (Louis Wu 14:44:19 UTC) (permalink)
Solidifying the Web Presence
Interesting. Fusible.com found a number of domains that have recently been acquired by Microsoft - many of them are Halo-related, but a couple are just... odd. ClicktoHump (both .com and .org)? Maybe Microsoft bought them to ensure they wouldn't be used for nefarious purposes? Others offer a tantalizing peek into potential marketing ploys - CortanaKnows.net and LostinSlipspace.com make me wonder about what's coming. Thanks to wwmOnkey, over at NeoGAF, for the heads-up.

Consider me teased.
Timgie stopped in with a link to a machinima teaser - and nothing else. The post (and the teaser) are supposed to be mysterious - I think he succeeded! Go watch. (It's only 24 seconds long - what do you have to lose?) (Louis Wu 14:42:41 UTC) (permalink)
The Lives of the Brute - Unfinished Version
SpearheadWarrior has an 'unfinished' version of his 'Lives of the Brutes' mockumentary - not sure what it's missing, but it's pretty funny as it stands! Thanks, Ogan Panavo. Update: Paula wrote to remind us that the very end of the video contains spoilers, of a sort, for Primordium (and possibly for Halo 4). Skip if you're staying dark.

The Halo Community - Then, Now, and the Future
Greenskull put together a vlog about the Halo community - it's called 'Then, Now, and the Future'. He reminisces a bit about HaloFest, and takes a look at what he feels both Bungie and 343 Industries have done right in regards to community involvement and embracing. He brings up a good point about what drives people like him to keep coming back for more, and how 343 can (and should!) capitalize on this. It's an interesting take - go watch!
