Midnight In Iraq
You may or may not remember the name Midnight - but he's been around the Halo community for quite some time, and now he's in Fallujah with the US Armed Forces. He's got a blog over at HushedCasket.com to keep you up-to-date on how it's going. (This is a guy who hacked his Xbox, added an LCD screen to it and took several copies of Halo with him over there.) As of yesterday, he's become milblogging.com's Milblogger of the Week. Way to go, Midnight! Thanks, rapture. (Louis Wu 11:44:10 UTC)

Goliath
Another very cool piece from Bryn 'ofthehi77' Casey - this one is a space battle tidbit known as 'Goliath. Sizeable (325k, and just about big enough for a monster screen wallpaper)... but definitely worth the look. Check it out! (Louis Wu 21:46:51 UTC)

Tower to Tower - now with more fiber!
A couple of days ago, Ducain kicked off a mini-contest at High Impact Halo; it involves tower-to-tower jumping on the original Halo. (Yep, that's right. You're STARTING from the top of one of the blue beam towers.) The prize list is growing, thanks to community members; there's a wad of cash, some XBL trial memberships, an Art of Halo book, a copy of Halo 2... check out the original post, and the followup with more goodies!

Droolables at the Bungies Store
Back from dinner, back from a nice moonlit walk on the beach... everyone else wanted to go to bed, so I figured I'd check in. Looks like a few things came in recently that haven't been posted... so I'm posting. You could start by swinging by the Bungie store - there are some new goodies to check out. The Zanzibar retro shirt from last year is back, in long sleeves and a light blue... a Halo-styled Ogio backpack is waiting to be scarfed up... and a bunch of trinkets I don't remember (a couple of pens and a caribiner keychain) have shown up. Thanks to Smith8907 for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 03:14:19 UTC)

F-I-R-Z... dangit
The Weekly Update is up, this week Frankie's got a special treat: a video tour of the new Bungie Studios. Naturally, Frankie was first to make note of it. (It's in the BWU Archive, too. But don't tell anyone.) (KP 00:07:44 UTC)

Halo2 OS petition
Microsoft and Bungie does what they must in order to push their product and continue to develop as they do. This means we (consumers) have little to no control over certain choices. However, you can still speak up about it. Fransico A. informed us of a petition he started based on his reaction to this BBC article. Go take a look at the petition, and do what you feel you must. Don't be disappointed when nothing changes. Update: As noted dozens of times in the past, we abhor petitions, and this news post does not mean we support the content, only that it is somewhat news worthy. (Cybrfrk 19:05:22 UTC)

DJ Voltage Spike of MMORadio.com drops by the forum to announce that Major Nelson will be their live guest tonight on the Gametime Radio Show. The show starts at 6 pm PST, so listen in to hear what the Major has to say about... Xbox Live stuff. They'll also have a toll-free number and a Skype account, so you can call in your questions.

HBO humpday barbeque pinktacular Gunslinger style
For the last several weeks, the HBO Admin team has been playing online building our skills and having a considerable amount of fun. Last Wednesday, we were challenged by the Gunslingers of Tied the Leader. Xerxdeej did a far better job explaining than we could have; with video to boot. Update: This is a bit of narration to why we got together, and how you can challenge them. Be warned, these are not your typical gamers with teen angst, they are mature gamers with respect for their counterparts. (Cybrfrk 14:58:57 UTC)

Uncharted Territory
A few rapid posts: we'll start with a piece on MLGPro.com that takes a look back at the 2005 season - nice memories! Thanks, 3Suns. (Louis Wu 05:00:20 UTC)

ARE Videogames really death trainers?
Wow. For a few years, I've been openly scornful of the attitudes of Jack Thompson, the lawyer who's made his career suing videogame companies for wrongful death; I've felt that his arguments are specious at best, and maliciously deceptive most of the time. Well, the guy just got a helping hand from a surprising source - the Washington Post. (Don't forget that bugmenot.com will help you read that, if you don't have an account.) It's an article in which both soldiers, and those who train them, state plainly that the videogames they play help them both in battlefield tactics, and in breaking down the barriers to shooting another person. Yeah, there are a couple of paragraphs in the story devoted to soldiers who were NOT made insensitive to death by video games - but it feels like a tacked-on afterthought in an attempt at 'balanced coverage' to me. Any way you cut it - you can be sure this article will turn up in court, in Jack's briefcase. Lots of people pointed this out to us - looks like Paul Marsh was first. And while Snowy_Duck was 10 hours behind Paul, he did start the first forum thread on the topic. Go discuss. Update: Same article is available without a login at msnbc.com - thanks, Dry Ice.

It Doesn't Remind Me
Yesterday, SNOWBLIND1717 submitted 'It Doesn't Remind Me', a Halo music video set to Audioslave's song of the same name, to the MPRRS; they liked it. Syncing's not perfect - but it's quite good, and his choices for action are inspired. (The onscreen activity matches the song really well.) Go watch! WMP9 version is 22.3 mb, QuickTime version is 23.7 mb. And go visit his website, as well. (Louis Wu 20:23:31 UTC)

PromethianGuard Episode 1
What a weekend. There's Halo news in them thar hills... but I haven't found time to tell you about it. Let's start with a new video from The PromethianGuard, sister clan to the PraetoriaGuard - they've released their first episode, downloadable from their forum. (There's also a PSP-friendly version, here.) It's a variety pack, a grab-bag of stuff; music, jokes, gameplay. 62 mb, WMP9 format, it's pretty hefty; almost 13 minutes long. Go grab a copy! Thanks to a number of PromethianGuard members - Tactic was first. (And as a side note - happy birthday to LordGideon, head of the PraetoriaGuard and sort of a godfather to the PromethianGuard! (Louis Wu 17:44:24 UTC)

The Case of the Missing Story
Wow. I'm not one for rumors, generally (have you noticed?), but when the BBC gets involved... Apparently, there was a link on the BBC front page that claimed that Halo 2 PC would debut on Windows Vista (the successor to XP). The article was pulled almost immediately - but Joystiq got a screenshot of the link (though not the article itself; it had already been pulled by that point), and addict3d.org saw it in time to actually summarize it. If this is true... wow. We've been telling people that we doubted a Halo 2 PC would ever come out. This is one time I wouldn't mind being wrong. (At this point, it's JUST A RUMOR. The only information has been pulled from the web almost faster than it was put up. We know nothing, and it could easily be a mistake (or a prank) on BBC's part; in fact, if it were anyone less reputable than the BBC, we probably wouldn't even be mentioning it. Goes to show you, though... it's really, really, REALLY hard to keep stories quiet - even mistakes.) Thanks, Muskie, for the heads-up. Update: Holy moley - it's REAL! We just got the press release from AEG. Update 2: Turns out the article is still on the BBC website - it was just at a different link. Thanks, Dark Knight and Brandon Smith.

Piranhas vs Master Chief
Phil Rock has been putting together some animated GIFs of the Master Chief and his adventures with piranhas. (Killer piranhas. Piranhas big enough to EAT him.) The GIF animation was cool, but pretty wasteful, bandwidth-wise (and Phil wants to host these himself), so we helped out with QuickTime and WMP9 conversions. The first three episodes are up now, along with Episode 4 in GIF format (but I've already sent him the converted versions, so if you want to save him some bandwidth, hold off a bit on that one until he's got the movie versions up). I'm starting to think of the MC as a little like Mr. Bill now... Update: Ep 4 is available in QT and WMP9 now. (Louis Wu 14:29:11 UTC)

A c0ld Fish.
Last week, c0ld vengeance got a great screenshot of a pretty cool Halo resident. This week, Stuntmutt desecrates the find as only he can, in today's One One Se7en. (Louis Wu 19:03:52 UTC)

Fumgoggy Orga A Warthog?
HaloBabies took a break for personal reasons, starting a couple of weeks ago - this week, One One Se7en sends them kind wishes and a tip o' the hat. (Louis Wu 17:29:03 UTC)

Bonehead.
I meant to post this yesterday, forgot. c0ld vengeance snagged a really nice screenshot of one of the underwater denizens you can see through the elevator windows in Delta Halo (and Regret) - you never get this close, normally. (Louis Wu 18:14:20 UTC)

Halo Love
Over at HaloPlanet, there's a new action-figure-based comic called Halo Love. Gloves says he might make more... but it seems like the relationship might be off to a rocky start. (Louis Wu 16:27:26 UTC)

Battlefield Halo
We got word from MR-T, and DT, about Battlefield Halo, a web-based role playing game with a Halo theme. Sign up, look around, and start role-playing in the Halo universe! (If you're curious about what you'd be getting into, you can find some great representative screenshots on this briefing page.) (Louis Wu 21:15:15 UTC)

7 Feet of MC in your living room.
We've mentioned Muckle statues quite a bit recently; they were primarily used for marketing Halo 2 in Europe, but they're starting to show up on eBay in the US as well. They're higher-quality statues than what showed up in game stores in the US... so it's not surprising that folks are buying these up. BARBARIC RAGE bought one of the 7 footers on eBay... and sent us pictures. (Front view | back view) Now THAT'S a dominating presence! (Louis Wu 15:04:37 UTC)

Sub Three Keyes.
Whoa. Over at the HIH forum, there's a thread started by scurty, showing off some speed runs of Keyes, in Halo 1; he's below 4 minutes in EVERY difficulty, but the Easy run is below 3 minutes. That's insane! Next up - Pillar of Autumn in 30 seconds. Warms my heart to know folks are still hammering away at these things... thanks to insidi0us for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 14:52:11 UTC)

XBW360 Contest - Details
You might remember a week or so ago, we mentioned an upcoming machinima contest, sponsored by Xbox World 360 (a British gaming mag). They don't have a website, per se... so we're helping out a bit; you can read the contest details on this page. Movie makers... start your cameras! (Louis Wu 17:36:16 UTC)

Info on Muckle Halo stuff
Phil Shiel hunted down the website for Muckle Mannequins - the folks who make those resin sculptures that come up for sale on eBay every once in a while. It's all framed - but if you start at the home page, and follow the 'Quick Menu' at the bottom right to 'Halo 2', you'll get the chance to see a couple of nice pics (labeled 'seite 1' and seite 2'). Looks like the life-sized version is even cooler than the small one! (Louis Wu 14:35:26 UTC)

Large MC Sculpture for auction
James Moran points out an auction on eBay's UK site - it's one of the 6-foot Master Chief statues. Starting bid is $1250 (US), and the auction ends tomorrow. (This is listed on the US site, as well.) Check it out! (Louis Wu 13:40:11 UTC)

Flattery? Nah.
Wow, I've seen sleazy... but this is pretty amazing. Over at a site called 'JonsModding', they're SELLING (yes, selling) three maps for your Xbox, which they're willing to install for you. These maps come from "the programming department teamed with JonsModding", and they "have programmed the maps to use the old halo 1 weapontry and we have even added a new vehicle called 'The Wasp'." The three maps? "We have named them Immature, Anxiety, and Corrupted." Whoa... that sounds a lot like the names of the three maps released by Mothergoat back in September! (Well, except for the Immure/Immature typo - but that actually gets corrected later on down the page.) And hey - those screenshots look the same, too! Oh... no wonder... JonsModding simply linked to the images on mothergoat.net. Dang, they couldn't even be bothered to localize the images they stole. Wow. These guys have a forum - maybe some of you want to discuss this issue with them? (Louis Wu 11:52:16 UTC)
