School Orchestra Plays Halo
Hawty McBloggy pointed out a series of themes from Halo 3, performed by the WACO (Wayland/Crawfordsville/Olds, Iowa) Junior/Senior High Orchestra... and wonders how many more kids would have played instruments if video game themes had been common in past years. (Louis Wu 20:13:41 UTC)

Community Videos for your viewing pleasure
If you're looking for videos to watch, you should swing by the Bungie Blog - they've got a few.
- Crash and Burn is a Major League Driving Race Map, and they've made a movie showing gamplay (if you visit the YouTube page, you can find a download link for the map itself).
- Cyberline Films has released My Halo Life, Episode 4, another batch of community-submitted clips.
- The latest Rube Goldberg creation is Simpsons-themed, with pictures, words, and music from the series, along with lots of flying vehicles.
Thanks, urk! (Louis Wu 07:50:09 UTC)

Alrighty, then
Over at Bungie.net, Sk1ll4xEd points out a clip from 1995's 'Ace Ventura 2' which might trigger some familiarity in Halo fans. (Before you start feverishly typing that this sounds NOTHING like the Halo theme... take a deep breath, realize that for most people a Gregorian chant is a Gregorian chant, and smile along with the rest of us.)

Hawty's Goodies
Hawty McBloggy has a couple of goodies for you today - she's put together a set of eight Halo-themed 360 mods (some are great, some are awful, some are just plain funny), and she's uncovered a true Halo transformer on eBay - it's a Warthog that transforms to a Spartan (well... sort of a Spartan).

More Chances at Mythic Map Pack Codes
Randomsauce wrote to let us know that Halo3Mythbusters has a Mythic Map Pack code to give away - create a Covenant-themed screenshot by midnight Tuesday, win a set of the maps early! Read the forum post for full details. (We're going to be giving away a few codes as well... but not until I get home, because it's going to be a very short-term contest, and I want to be there to monitor results. Look for that on Tuesday.) (Louis Wu 12:57:44 UTC)

Joomla Halo 3 Template
I ran across Dimensions Halo 3, a Halo 3-themed template for Joomla-based websites. If you're using Joomla as a content management system and you'd like your site to have a pretty clean Halo 3 look... check this out! Update: oops, sorry - we got a heads-up from Stian Øby Johansen that this was probably an illegal repack of a subscriber template. I've pulled the link. (Louis Wu 14:24:36 UTC)

Halo Wars Art, Hands-on Pieces Continue
More Halo Wars coverage - The Halo Wars website mentions writeups at Joystiq and Xbox360Achievements.com, in addition to the stuff we mentioned a couple of days ago (post 1 | post 2). Planet Halo points out one at TeamXbox, too. And Wired has put up its own piece. On top of this news, the Halo Wars team has posted new wallpapers on their Screenshots page (they're labeled 'XBOX Live Screenshots') - the theme that these papers come from is available on Marketplace for 250 points. And they've added wallpaper containing the Flame Marine, concept artwork of Jackals, and a new Hunter shot. Pretty stuff! (Thanks in part to 2900d4u for the heads-up.) Update: There's even more - The 1UP FM podcast contains an interview with Ensemble's Graeme Devine and Dave Pottinger this week. Thanks, LoneRanger 2.5. (Louis Wu 13:29:23 UTC)
