Halo Fall of Reach Covenant?
CaptainTony noticed that Marvel will be releasing a new comic miniseries starting in February - it focuses on the Covenant, apparently. (There's no word about this on Marvel's website, so it's POSSIBLE that this is just a reprint of an earlier series.) (Louis Wu 14:36:02 UTC)

On the Precipice
Wow, what better way to start of the new year than by showing something that bridges the past to the present. Siliconmaster sends along word that Precipice, his Halo CE map is complete. I hesitate to even call it a simple mod because it is truly incredible. Definitely check out the trailer on YouTube, and if you like you can also check out his thread over at Modacity. You can also download the trailer here. At any rate, go and check this out! (GrimBrother One 16:39:28 UTC)

Fails of Reach Fan Challenge
CruelLEGACEY sent word that he's put up a fan challenge - if he can get 1000 subscribers to his YouTube channel (he's currently sitting at a bit over 600), he'll start taking fan submissions for a special "Fan Fails" episode of his 'Fails of Reach' series. Full details in his website post.

Team HBO Invades Christmas Eve
pete_the_duck and friends played a bunch of Invasion on Christmas Eve - and he had stories to tell, stories with pictures. (Well, video.) Man, I hope Bungie fixes their Silverlight player to allow turning off of auto-start... because pages like this can be PAINFUL. (Louis Wu 03:41:08 UTC)

No More Begging
One of the roughest Reach Achievements is 'If They Came to Hear Me Beg' - where you need to jump onto an Elite and assassinate him from a height that would otherwise kill you. Most people try this on Reach's 9th mission - and an AWFUL lot of Spartans have died jumping off that first cliff during the attempts. CruelLEGACEY has put together a guide to earning that Achievement on Nightfall - he's not (by far) the first, but his video is fun to watch (unless you're scarred for life from your own attempts), and shows you exactly where to start.

Waypoint - Chock-full of Halo Goodness
Totally spaced on the Weekly Wrap-up at Halo Waypoint - there are a few things you may not have seen:
- The Weekend Webcomic is a new episode of Master Chief's Pets, a series started last year by warrioronlydude.
- There's a new episode of Halo Reach: Headshot, covering Breakpoint.
- Death McGunz took Jonathan Coulton's "Re: Your Brains" and added Halo footage to it. (Plus a bit more.)
- Sometimes, crates are evil.
- 8-Bit Brigade hosted a holiday fundraiser for Child's Play, and there was plenty of Halo schwag for the taking. (This ended yesterday, unfortunately. Sorry.)
There are also plenty of screenshots worth seeing. And there are some exclusive bits you might have missed:
- MEGA Bloks' Assault on Squad 45 is now up - both Part 1 (which we mentioned last week) and Part 2 (which is exclusive to Waypoint) - amazing stop-motion stuff!
- The Return, a story from Halo: Evolutions, was turned into an animated comic on Xbox LIVE back this spring, and makes its web debut now. It's 20 minutes long, the art is spectacular, and if you missed it on LIVE, here's your chance to see it.
- The latest OutREACH segment is an interview with XerxdeeJ, the leader of Tied the Leader. Great discussion about how a little bit of planning can make your Halo experience much more positive!
Go explore - there's tons more! Update: looks like Assault on Squad 45 Part 2 is available on YouTube, as well, if you have any problem with Silverlight. (Louis Wu 14:05:53 UTC)

Waypoint Weekend Wrapup
Ooh, it's Sunday - that means Halo Waypoint has a Weekly Wrapup to tell us what we missed!
- Halo: Reach Best Fails Ever 5 is the fifth episode of yet ANOTHER Fails show.
- Machinima.com's Headshot takes a look at Anchor 9.
- When it snows, you make snowmen - and when you're a Halo fan, you make Spartans.
In addition to these fan creations, there was a bunch of new Waypoint-created content, as well:
- Part 3 of The Arbiter finishes the story of this critical Covenant character.
- bs angel put together a collection of her favorite color-free screenshots - it's amazing what you can do with Theater Mode!
- Greenskull gives a walkthrough of a modified version of Swordbase in Green's Machines 2.
- Episode 3 of 'Franchise Player', the Rooster Teeth-created miniseries, is now live.
Go watch! (Louis Wu 15:41:48 UTC)

The Hushed Apprentice
Bones153 wants to share his Forgetacular entry with the HBO community - and as a thank-you for all the testing help and feedback he's gotten, he's gonna make it worth your while. Download the map, take a screenshot of yourself playing on it, and upload that to B.net, and you could win a 1600 MS Point Card. Noice! Check his post for full details - and a movie showing highlights of the map. (Louis Wu 21:11:14 UTC)

I'm an Armor-Lockin' Fool!
Hypertrooper got some cool Reach schwag from Microsoft Germany, but couldn't use it - so he's offering to give it to you. All you've got to do is provide him with a crazy Armor-Lock clip. It has to be yours (no submitting your friend's cool kill or fail), it has to be a clip (not a screenshot), and it needs to be on Bungie.net (doesn't need to be rendered, though that's helpful). Submit your best shot before Friday, and a cool Reach hat and shirt can be yours! (Louis Wu 17:39:46 UTC)

Movies, Maps Chattered About
Bungie's Comm Chatter has a couple of community map-making stories:
- Forever Forgers has a listing of some favorite maps, along with descriptions and links.
- a rascal cat has Week 6 of his Map Spotlight series - focusing on Troubled Waters, by Odin12345. Go read the interview, then check out the assets (a screenshot, a flythrough, a download link).
It also has a couple of movies:
- CruelLEGACEY's Fails of Reach, Campaign/Firefight Edition has a whole bunch of giggle moments - worth watching.
- Stewie2552's Funny Halo Reach Fails and Laughs 5 is full of wtf moments in both Campaign and Multiplayer. The Armor-locking Triple Vehicle Kill was my favorite, though the banshee betrayal after the awesome assassination was a close second.
Go check it all out! (Louis Wu 20:36:27 UTC)

munky-058 held a screenshot contest recently - and because he was offering Noble Map Pack codes as prizes, he got a LOT of submissions. Well, he's picked his faves - and you can see them, along with a number of honorable mentions, in this post. Congrats to the winners! And to everyone involved - fantastic shots, all around.

More Noble Quick Looks
Bungie wants to make sure that everyone knows about their Noble Map Pack Quick Look videos that have been hitting the web the past two days. An awesome look at the new maps with great commentary. YouTube links are now up for Tempest, joining Anchor 9 from yesterday. JDQuackers also started a thread about it on our forum, where urk let us know that Breakpoint's Quick Look would be out tomorrow. Go and watch! (GrimBrother One 17:11:49 UTC)

Sparkast 002
Yesterday David Ellis from 343 sent word that Sparkast 002 was live. It's a great listen, with one segment spent talking with urk and Mantis at Bungie about the Noble Map Pack, and the second segment involving David, Frankie, and Burnie Burns (from Rooster Teeth) talking about... well... lots of odd stuff. Mix in some good conversation between David and 343's Vociferous, and you've got a plesant time for your ears. Direct download is here, and you can also get it from Zune, iTunes, or Waypoint. padraig08 also started a topic on our forum about it. Check it out! (GrimBrother One 16:46:31 UTC)

Halo (the original) for really cheap
Whoa. FyreWulff pointed out that starting tomorrow, and running through November 29, Halo: Combat Evolved will cost 400MSP (a 67% price reduction) - if you don't have a copy, $5 is a hard price to pass up! (There are a bunch of other games with vastly reduced prices - check his post for full details.) Update: KP clarified that the list from Kotaku (which is where FyreWulff found this info) was incomplete; Halo will ONLY be on sale on Friday, November 26. Keep that in mind when you're gearing up to purchase... (Louis Wu 22:56:16 UTC)
