Pictures, master... lots of pictures...
Inside that last article, hidden at the very bottom, are links to lots of new content - new screenshots, new desktops, and a new picture at Gearbox... which, interestingly enough, matches the one in this forum thread pretty closely. Whoa. (Louis Wu 16:52:48 UTC)

More screens - really old?
Gamers Hell put up ANOTHER 6 shots from some multiplay stuff. These are either grabbed from a REALLY old beta, or they were grabbed using a pretty horrible video card... even the gametype indicator is missing. You're looking for the 6 shots labeled '12/09/2003'; it's a series from Battle Creek. (They're not at the top; those are the recent release of Infinity shots from Microsoft's official Halo site.)

Infinity screens posted
Microsoft has put up shots of Infinity, the last of the 6 new levels in Halo PC, on the official HPC site. These, combined with the shots you can find in our Fanstock Screenshots section (put up almost a month ago), should give you a good sense of how massive this level is (and how much fun it's going to be with Warthogs)...

Previews out the yin-yang.
Massive Halo PC coverage: Gamers Hell has a preview and 33 new screenshots, GameGossip has a preview (contains 5 screens), and Game Over has a preview (12 screens, but several are taken from the Firing Squad preview last week). Of the three, I'd have to say that the Game Gossip piece has the most meat... but press is press. Thanks to ShackNews for all three links. (Louis Wu 22:25:29 UTC)

More Halo PC screens at GameKult
GameKult has put up twenty screenshots of Halo (though the last 7 are just re-released pics from the Gearbox and Microsoft sites). These are all from Beta 1.5, though this time there are some multiplayer shots. Thanks to Xavier De Coster for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 18:58:26 UTC)

AV looks at Halo PC
Adrenaline Vault has an interview with Randy Pitchford up; it's focused on team play, requirements, and new features of Halo PC. 21 screenshots (all single player, from Beta 1.5). Thanks to Madscientist for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 17:48:56 UTC)

Is it Memorex?
Doggone has put the MC action figure... into the action. Check out this forum post with a couple of screenshots, modified. (We've got a few other 'things people do with action figures' in the queue - I wonder if we have to set up a new section?) (Louis Wu 12:37:40 UTC)

New Zealand site looks at Halo PC
Another Halo Preview - this time it's over at RadiativeNZ. Short, and with a few minor errors - but a nice job on the 16 screenshots, showing vehicles and weapons. Thanks to AlStrong on our forum for pointing it out. (Louis Wu 22:10:22 UTC)

Older maps, newer weapons
Very nice new screen over at Gearbox's Projects page - The MC with a flamethrower, on Boarding Action. Burn, baby... (Louis Wu 15:29:19 UTC)

Preparing for Halo PC Filmz
One last offsite vid for you: Dinky, of HaloJuggaloProductions, has put up a large (31 mb, DivX-encoded AVI) movie showing how to get video footage from your PC onto a DV camera. If that sounds like a lot to download for something you could explain in, say, a text-based FAQ... check out botman's suggestion for straight-to-disk recording. Supports up to 1024x768 resolution (better than the DV camera's 720x480) - though you'll need a LOT of disk space for the movies... roughly 1 gb/minute. Also, framerate drops more than 50% (on my system, with reasonable action on the screen, average framerate went from ~45 fps to ~20 fps when recording was turned on.) Still, it's easy to implement, and makes pretty high-quality movies... (Louis Wu 19:06:54 UTC)

Gamers Depot looks at Halo PC
Another Halo PC preview over at Gamers Depot - again, it's single-player only (Beta 1.5 had only LAN networking), but they took a few nice screenshots. Thanks to Nick Danger for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 15:55:25 UTC)

The Longest Short
A few weeks ago, we mentioned a CGI Halo movie being worked on by Mic Fedusenko. He's popped back into our forum with word of another few screenshots of his progress. Check 'em out! (Louis Wu 15:35:49 UTC)

FiringSquad looks at SP Halo PC
Halo PC Preview at FiringSquad. It's a look at Single-player only, and brings up several points that have been addressed on various messageboards by Bungie and Gearbox employees (so don't bother sending us outraged emails about how this or that problem is already fixed - we know)... but it's a view from a PC FPS player, which is how Halo PC SHOULD be judged. 32 screenshots, as well. Thanks to AlStrong for the heads-up on our forum. (Louis Wu 16:16:50 UTC)

The Halo Timeline - official again
Whoa - I've got no idea when this was (re)posted... but the Halo Storyline, originally posted on the now-defunct Xbox.com Flash Halo site, has RESURFACED at Xbox.com. (It was orginally posted in mid-September 2001 - in a hidden format. Once a Bungie fan found it, it was yanked. It reappeared - in an altered format - a couple of months later... and then was yanked again. It was offline for a very, very long time; I'm pretty sure it wasn't up on the Xbox.com site, say, a month ago.) Nice to see - maybe this can kickstart the dormant Halo Story page, which has been waiting for its maintainers to return from their summer activities... (Louis Wu 12:30:18 UTC)

It's all about the ice, baby
Woohoo! New screens at Microsoft's Halo PC site - this time it's Ice Fields. There haven't been a lot of views of this level up to now... you get 5 decent ones here, and can get a good feel for level layout. Thanks to spesalfred for the heads-up! (Louis Wu 21:02:31 UTC)

Gearbox posts Sapien shot
Gearbox has put up another new screenie - this time, it's a shot of Sapien, the tool used to populate maps after creation. Get a feel for what sort of options are available... (The work items list is down to 48, as well... not long now!) Thanks to Satesh, on our forum, for noticing. (Louis Wu 15:36:53 UTC)

The Preview Parade Continues
Two new Halo PC previews: Warcry, put up Tuesday, and The Armchair Empire, put up Wednesday. The Warcry preview is a bit strange; it focuses entirely on the campaign mode, and was written by someone who never even bothered to read old Xbox summaries. (The screenshots are of such degraded quality that we're not even going to include them in our Screenshots database.) The Armchair Empire believes that the game will be a hard sell to Xbox owners, because "what little that is new to Halo just won't be enough to justify paying full price for a second, slightly more robust version of the game." (These guys obviously haven't been playing internet multiplayer every night...) Both links come from Blue's News, by way of ash. (Louis Wu 12:40:06 UTC)

Gearbox Update
For the first time in almost a week, Gearbox has updated its top Exclusive Screenshot - this one shows a lot of firepower being unleashed on a few Blue guys by a pair of Reds... (And while your ON the Projects page, note that the remaining work items for Halo PC (things that must be completed before the game can be sent to manufacturing) is down to 57. When the countdown was first noted (6 days ago), the total was 146; not a bad week's work! Thanks to Brad Griswold for the first heads-up. (Louis Wu 20:11:36 UTC)

Games Domain looks over Halo PC
Games Domain has put up a Halo PC Preview; not a lot new (well, they're apparently MUCH better with a sniper rifle than I am), but 10 additional screens (added to the Screenshots database, as well). Thanks to ash, who noticed it at Blue's News. (Louis Wu 07:48:35 UTC)

Entertainment Depot previews Halo
A brief Halo PC preview was published (along with 25 screenshots) over at the Entertainment Depot yesterday. Thanks to Cash, on the Gearbox forums, for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 14:49:40 UTC)

Homelan Fed looks at Halo PC - again
Last Friday, Homelan Fed put up a followup article to their Fanstock Impressions article we mentioned a bit ago. (I blame our missing it on the Labor Day weekend. Yeah, that's it.) A few new screenshots (now in our Screenshots database as well), and some comments about the beta version they've been playing with... worth a look! (Louis Wu 13:25:45 UTC)

Long-overdue egg update
Wow. It's taken a LOONNG time, but the Easter Eggs page is finally up-to-date; two eggs (the Megg, and the Chinese seven on the pistol) have been added, and one egg (the Gametypes screen, as corrected by ZechsGX recently) has been updated. Dunno why I hadn't done this before... (Louis Wu 16:15:44 UTC)

Serious Tactics.
Every once in a while, Serious Sam comes up in a discussion of what Halo is missing (due to its more-than-two-player full-screen coop play). Stuntmutt looks at what it DOESN'T have, in comparison to Halo, in today's One One Se7en. Ouch. (Louis Wu 02:00:07 UTC)

Danger Canyon Shots at MS site
Continuing on their one-new-map-a-week schedule, Microsoft's Official Halo PC site has put up 5 new screenshots in the Multiplayer section, this time of Danger Canyon. You can get a good sense for the scale of the map, if you didn't have it already... take a look! Thanks to quickfire for pointing it out. We've gone ahead and added these to our Screenshots database, simply because we just brought it up to date yesterday, and I'd hate to begin getting behind so soon... (Louis Wu 19:56:20 UTC)

The Countdown is on!
Gearbox's Project page, which was offline for a while this morning, is back up with a new screenshot (feel sorry for the Blue Base)... and a countdown of remaining work items left on Halo PC (before it can go gold). Total at the moment: 146. (That's not very much; I remember Oni's bug tracker had over 3000 items in it a week before it went gold. They weren't all bugs... but they were things that needed to be addressed.) Woohoo! Thanks to Sedgr for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 18:58:13 UTC)
