Tetris Forever
Chairleg Productions released Episode 2 of their new series, MPs, this week. This one is shaping up to be amazing - really high production values, including fantastic audio, beautifully-integrated effects, and really smooth cinematography. Humor continues to be high, and character development is really strong. We're helping out with a mirror of the WMP9 version (40.2 mb), and providing a QuickTime version as well (40.6 mb). Check it out! (Louis Wu 12:46:58 UTC)

Halo Hide 'n Seek 2 (solved, hours ago)
c0ld vengeance put up another Halo Hide n' Seek on the forum - it was solved less than an hour later by Dojorkan (again). Still worth trying on your own - some great pics in there (this time all from Outskirts). Check it out! (Louis Wu 02:02:47 UTC)

c0ld's Halo Hide and Seek
He's at it again; c0ld vengeance has posted 10 screenshots on our forum, and challenged you, the viewer, to come up with an exact location for each one. You're going to need to be pretty specific on these... check it out! Update: DOH! 2 minutes after I posted this, c0ld confirmed that Dojorkan had nailed all but one of these. I should have gotten to it sooner... guess you'll have to wait for the next round. (Louis Wu 00:22:51 UTC)

Play! In Detroit
A few days ago, Hextall27 pointed out on our forum that Play! (a videogame music concert series) will be coming to Detroit on July 12. We didn't pick up on it then, so he sent it to us via email. The Play team is hooking up with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra for this event... if you're in the area, check it out! Halo music will be played. (Louis Wu 14:49:06 UTC)

Oppression Trailer
A few days ago, a trailer for an upcoming machinima called 'Oppression' passed through the MPRRS; it came really, really close to passing. There was a single typo in some of the text, and this typo was mentioned by a large number of reviewers - we got uppity squirrel, the creator, to fix that typo, and we're hosting the vid after all. Looks to be a dramatic film! The trailer is 14.6 mb in WMP9 format, or 14.1 mb in QuickTime format (it's only 2 minutes long). Check it out! (Louis Wu 16:00:34 UTC)

Long Form Content
A new Community Spotlight has gone live over at Bungie.net; KP asked a question and a half of Narcogen, and let the guy behind Rampancy.net handle the other 8000 words of the interview. Check it out to see some of the motivation behind one of the longest-running Halo fansites on the web, along with some little-known Bungie history and trivia. As usual when Narc's writing, a great read. (Louis Wu 00:19:41 UTC)

Philosophical Underpinnings?
Wow, there's a connection I've never seen anyone make before... Geoff Chang has found a relevantly-numbered passage from Nietzsche which certainly ties in nicely with certain aspects of the game! This is more Story page material than anything else... but there it was, sitting on the forum, and i was intrigued. Check it out! (Louis Wu 13:41:28 UTC)

Big Bird on Helium
Northwestern Magazine (the magazine put out by Northwestern University to spotlight the goings-on in its community) wrote up an article on Joe Staten, after he came out to speak a couple of months ago. SleeperQ took photos of the three-page article, which details the road Staten's taken to and within Bungie; you can find links in this forum post. An interesting read - check it out! Update: SleeperQ found the article online at Northwestern; makes for much easier reading. (Louis Wu 14:11:07 UTC)

Gauss Montage
Montages might be getting a bit old... but over at Halo2Forum.com, there's a Gauss Montage (well, both hogs are featured, but it's predominately the Gauss), and it's really, really nicely done. 124 mb, WMP9 format. (I've whipped up a QuickTime version for those who can't deal with WMP9 - but I haven't heard whether I'm allowed to post it or not, so it needs to wait.) Check it out - there's some awesome footage, and plenty of interesting effects. (And a HILARIOUS accidental triple betrayal near the end...) (Louis Wu 04:12:58 UTC)

Call That Gratitude?
Stuntmutt has a special Sunday One One Se7en for you today - or rather, it's for the folks who filled in for him these past two weeks. Check it out. And while you're in that Stuntmutt state of mind (sort of like a New York state of mind, but slightly seedier, and without all the good food), check out his blog - he's done a wonderful job of recapping the last couple of weeks... wedding stuff, cool shirts, user-submitted strips, and some hilarious blackmail material on Jillybean and c0ld vengeance. Those two can't hold their liquor, it seems... (Louis Wu 12:03:35 UTC)
