HaloGAF Delivers.
As any long-time reader of HBO probably knows, the Halo thread(s) on NeoGAF are goldmines of awesome content; I've gone through the Halo Reach Beta thread there, and pulled out all the content that hasn't been mentioned here yet. Go enjoy it.
- Demoncarnotaur has a pretty cool girlfriend; she did her best to build him a Wraith cake for his 21st birthday. It might be a little flat... but the effort is awesome.
- Kibbles went through the Carnàge Carnivàle ViDoc, and pulled out all the actual gameplay footage. No devs - just play. 4:37, in YouTube's HD.
- Six-Okay (ex-343 Community Manager) whipped up a Power-Puff-Girls-inspired version of Noble Team. Check it out on his blog. Thanks, Zeouterlimits.
- Dani ran across a YouTube video from ConsoleCreatures - it's footage from the Canadian Press Event last week. Nice flavor, for folks who've never been.
- More art, courtesy of Zeouterlimits - Ben K, of Ars Technica, tweeted about Gamma360's drawing of Emile.
- Kibbles pointed out that Xbox Evolved converted an Inside Xbox feature about the Reach Beta from its XBLM flavor to a web-based flavor.
- Waypoint's Cocopjojo let the thread know that they'd filmed a full-length video of an Invasion match - no editing, just gameplay - and put it on YouTube. This is really, really cool. (Especially since you won't be getting your OWN chance to play this gametype until May 7.)
- Waypoint's GLYPH pointed out that if you don't have access to Halo Waypoint on Xbox LIVE, you can still watch their Reach Beta Primer online - either streaming, or via download (it's a 343 mb, 640x360 .wmv). Good stuff in there - including the first successful footage I've seen of the lock-on potential of the Reach Rocket Launcher. Hello, Halo 2!
- (One more) Son of Godzilla posted links to YouTubed versions he put up of Luke Smith's GamesRadar game+commentary. It's in two parts: Part 1 | Part 2
Go check this stuff out - it's super awesome. (Louis Wu 01:54:05 UTC)

Mapping Reach: FUD Delivers
Dani continues his quest to position 'Forward Unto Dawn' as the spiritual successor to 'Ascendant Justice' - there's a new article up called 'Mapping Reach', and it's a doozy. It takes a close look at the tidbits about map layout we've been served so far, and does a spectacular job of putting forth some ideas about what might be coming later this year. Great attention to detail, great read. Check it out. Update: site is down right now (Monday, 8:54pm UTC), sit tight! Update 2: Looks like things are back to normal, mostly. Update 3: we've set up a temporary home for this article (and any other FUD articles Dani manages to get online, while his site is down). (Louis Wu 15:11:50 UTC)

Reach Multiplayer Advances
As expected, Shacknews has a pretty interesting article online right now - it discusses some of the new Matchmaking and social features coming in Halo: Reach. Active Roster and Arena, terms we've heard before but had no explanation for, are now laid out - along with a description of better voting options, queue-joining, new party handling, and more. It's absolutely worth a read - check it out! (And then try to be patient, May 3 will be here soon.) (Louis Wu 18:45:04 UTC)

Some mods are FUN.
Hawty McBloggy ran across a video showing off a Halo 3 mod that would be a BLAST to play with; a couple of guys created a functional 1950's style UFO, and removed the killzone between the Sandbox Sky Bubble and the main level. Check it out! (Louis Wu 13:02:02 UTC)
