Getchyer Bungie Screens Here!
We've added the three map views from Bungie's recent Team Tournament Strategy Guide to our Screenshots database. (Louis Wu 15:58:21 UTC)

Hang 'em Hign, for Unreal
Nick found a pretty cool-looking UT2k3 version of Hang 'em High... someone's putting a lot of time into making it right. The thread (with a number of screens) can be found here. You'll need to register to view the site, so here's a link to one of the images, so you can get a better sense for what's being shown (and a local copy, in case that one goes away).

Watch it, Marine...
Did someone blow it? Was Silent Cartographer a doomed mission from the very start? Are courts-martial in order? Be sure to watch Combat History, this week on VisionStar. (Thanks to Travis Cossel, who captured this 40-second, 6.7 mb QT version of the trailer.) (Louis Wu 01:41:34 UTC)

Rock On.
Warbow started a movie based off of School House Rock... but never really got anywhere. The splash screen is great, though. (Louis Wu 20:33:34 UTC)

Halo50k survey up
dolbex points out that the Halo50K preregistration database is now online. It starts with a survey - they're trying to get an idea about how much interest there is. (After the survey, you're given a chance to preregister your team; this isn't the stage at which you need to pay or anything.) Stop by and fill it out! (Louis Wu 12:39:14 UTC)

Tamte on Mac Halo - again
Gotta love it when the big boys are months behind. Today, Macworld UK posted an article about a talk they had 'recently' with Peter Tamte, president of Destineer Studios, and Bold, the company that will publish the Mac version of Halo. The information seems a tad out of date:
"Halo for the Mac will be released in summer 2003 simultaneously with the PC release, and will very much be a multiplayer thing. PC and Mac users will be able to play Halo online against each other. It's unclear yet whether it will be possible to play against Xbox users, because the Xbox uses a different set of controls."
Tamte went on to confirm that the Bungie team responsible for Halo is now working on Halo 2, and discussed the way the game is being ported: "Westlake is doing the Mac port. The company is working with the PC code produced by Gearbox for the PC port of the title. Westlake will begin work in mid-September".
That's what he told bungie.org's Freewill in July, Inside Mac Games in August, and MacGamer in September... and what's with the future tense about the Westlake start date? (Well, to be fair, the possibility that the PC and Xbox versions might be able to play together is new; up until now, the answer has been a flat-out 'no'.) Thanks to Harry Al-Shakarchi for the heads-up on this one. (Louis Wu 12:16:26 UTC)

They don't die, they start up indie presses
Whoa, random info. Hot on the heels of a discussion over at Subnova about who'd left Bungie recently, we got mail from Matt Segur, a programmer on the Halo team who left after Halo shipped. He's got a brand-spankin' new mixed-media publishing company called Ghostweed Press, and they're currently selling a book and a CD. The music's pretty good... go check 'em out, and see what happens to Bungie expatriates - after they receive "the operation"! UPDATED: The discussion in question was held in a private forum; the link that used to be in this post would deny access to pretty much everyone so it was removed. --CZ) (Louis Wu 01:18:55 UTC)

Halo for UT 2K3
Hehe - you knew it had to happen. Kayas pointed out a map for Unreal Tournament 2k3 called 'SOT Bloodgulch'. The screenshot shows a bit more... um, scaffolding than I'm used to, but the concept is great. (Louis Wu 20:46:18 UTC)

Phoenix-inspired artwork
Since the announcement that Bungie's secret project known as Phoenix has been shelved, the artwork has begun to pour in. We started by placing it in our Miscellaneous Art section... but it's clear that it has the potential to crush that section, and it's not particularly Halo-related. We've therefore added new additions (as well as recently submitted pieces that are already in our Misc. Art section) to phoenix.bungie.org... and will continue to add new pieces there as they're submitted. Minimalist interface; the art is the thing. Hope this works for everyone! (Louis Wu 19:33:16 UTC)

Screens Bonanza
Recently, Bungie posted the eighth chapter of their Legendary Walkthrough at the Tru7h and Reconciliation site. It included a whole passel of the now-legendary (hehe) Bungie-quality screenshots to illustrate the text. We've added these to our Screenshots database; you'll find the 43 shots shown on that page, plus 9 others that didn't make the cut. Go crazy! (Louis Wu 03:09:28 UTC)

The Bungie Boys are Busy
Boatloads of new content at Bungie.net... on top of yesterday's system upgrades, we now have a Legendary walkthrough for Two Betrayals (with almost 50 new screenshots - and more if you know where to look) and an article entitled 'So You Want To Be a Programmer', written by Michael Evans, a programmer on the Halo team. Go read it all! (Louis Wu 01:31:51 UTC)

Artwork part 2 and a new policy
Three new images for our Miscellaneous art collection this time around. Folks: during the past few days, we've received a huge number of art submissions. Some of them we received more than once. Again - if you don't see your image online in a day or so after submission, feel free to send us email asking us whether we got it... but PLEASE don't resend the image unless we say we didn't. Also: if you're going to start with Bungie artwork, and add a line of text... or paste a character from another game onto it with no attempt at actually combining the images... we're going to decline to host it. The overall quality of submissions in recent weeks has dropped precipitously (with several very notable exceptions) - people seem to be encouraged to send in barely modified existing work by seeing other barely modified existing work actually get posted... so from this point on, we're going to be a bit more selective about what we post. This is not to say you must be a great artist; it's just to say that in order for us to display your work, we have to be convinced it's YOUR WORK. (More than half of the submissions this week aren't getting posted for this reason.) I hope this makes sense to everyone. (Louis Wu 14:00:21 UTC)

Is that an MC in your pocket...?
Got an iPAQ, Jornada or a T-Mobile Pocket PC Phone? Want a Master Chief theme for your Today Screen? Thanks to Jack Ash, you can grab one from our Miscellaneous Art section. Cool! (Louis Wu 04:18:52 UTC)

AIM Halo theme available
SpikeDaDragon has created a new Halo Expression for AOL Instant Messenger. If you know what this is (or if you use AIM and would like to know what this is), visit Spike's site and download the file. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a preview of it anywhere, so if you don't have AIM (or aren't willing to modify files without seeing the results first), you're out of luck. Update: There's a screenshot now, so you can see what you're getting into. (Louis Wu 12:14:54 UTC)

New screens finally posted
Our Screenshots database has been updated with the X02 screenshots released a couple of weeks ago, and some images released by gamesradar.com, the web arm of Edge Magazine's parent company. (The X02 shots are high resolution... but the gamesradar shots are lower-res scans. If you can get hold of the magazine, you're better off.) (Louis Wu 16:42:56 UTC)

A weekend of editing
Lots of art bits submitted recently. We'll start with the miscellaneous art - there's an airbrushed MC, a Halo box, and an MC with a sword, from XAL, Jack Smith, and Chris, respectively. You'll find these in our Miscellaneous Art section. And then there's a new banner in our Banners section, and two new logos in our Logos section, all courtesy of Michael Frank. Heh - that should clear out the inbox for a few minutes... (Louis Wu 15:11:46 UTC)

Um... is that what Jason meant?
Ritalin turns in a "screenshot from an older build of the Halo 2 engine". We've tossed it in our Miscellaneous Art section. (Louis Wu 12:51:20 UTC)

German Halo 2 Preview at PC Games Portal
Mick points out a new Halo 2 preview (in German) at PC Games Portal. I don't read German, but a Systran translation suggests there isn't anything here that wasn't discussed in Edge or EGM magazines, or on the web. Still, I find it interesting that the preview cycle has already started up. Check it out! (Louis Wu 18:53:16 UTC)

Shrink or Die
Blackstar has updated the Work or Die video he posted 2 weeks ago to be a bit more bandwidth-friendly; it's now 24.4 mb (the screensize was reduced to 480x360 to keep image quality up). If you haven't downloaded this yet because it was too big, go grab it now... and watch me get killed over and over and over and over and... (The Movies database has been updated with the new info.)

Info, bay-bee...
Thanks to the eagle eyes of Jerry, who noticed the cool new link at the top of the bungie.net main page (right corner). It contains quick links to all the useful info so far published on Halo 2 - press releases, links to the trailer, goodies like screens and desktops... keep it handy! (Louis Wu 01:29:54 UTC)

Mad Cow dropped off a tweaked b.net screenshot for our Miscellaneous Art collection. (It's a pretty minor change, but it's rather well done.) (Louis Wu 02:14:20 UTC)

Screenshots for sale
Its lack of useability was getting on my nerves... so the Screenshots Database has been overhauled. It's also been brought up to date. Feel free to browse through it, and if you run across any glitches or anomalies... please, let us know. I can't fix it if I don't know it's broken. There are shots here you won't find linked ANYWHERE else - and that's a promise. :) (Louis Wu 13:52:39 UTC)
