Hedge Loves Halo
So yesterday we mentioned that Hedgemony was offering to take standard screenshots and make 'em prettier; a few people took him up on it, and he's collected the results in a Tumblr site. Go check 'em out! (Louis Wu 12:55:10 UTC)

Gentlemen (and Ladies), Start Your Engines!
Eep - we almost forgot! Yesterday was Thursday, so the Halo 3 Double XP Weekend Playlist went live... this week, it's Rocket Race. Missing that glorious drive-and-shoot gametype? Take a break from the Reach Beta and go play! (Don't forget to save any films you might want clips of before you do, though; each time you switch games, you clear that temp cache, and wipe out your 'Recent History'.)

COMMAND, Episode 1
AsiansOnFire started up a machinima series last year, for a senior project - didn't get enough support from the community, so he only made the first episode. Go watch it - then decide if you want to help with a reboot effort!

RIP, LIVE H2.
Getting late in the day to start updating... let's see what we've got. Urban Reflex was the first to let us know that Halo 2 is officially over on Xbox LIVE; the last man standing was APACHE N4SIR, as of about 7:30 (eastern) last night. Then, at 2 am this morning... he was booted, and the Halo 2 service became completely unpopulated. Kotaku had a post to say goodbye, as well. Congrats to the die-hard crew who kept the dream alive for almost a month after the service was turned off! (Louis Wu 19:09:20 UTC)

The Multiplayer Experience
SpartanT77 sent us a link to 'The Multiplayer Experience', a video set to Princeton's 'LvUrFR3NZ' - it's a look at how the experience actually works for many of us. In-game footage is filmed off the screen, but the look works pretty well, overall, in the context of this project. Take a look! (I'd forgotten just how bad that song actually is...)

ASE Episode 16: Reach Beta Video
Rampancy.net has posted a new Anger, Sadness, and Envy Podcast - they take a look at the Halo: Reach multiplayer Beta. (Sounds like it was recorded over last weekend.) Blackstar, Miguel Chavez, and Cody Miller discuss the weapons and gameplay based on a couple of days of play - and all of it includes video this time around. If you'd rather watch it in HD, try this link (but be aware that the player doesn't show the full video onscreen; you'll need to use the download link to see the HD). Update: Blackstar has updated the main link with download links for both versions - no login required. (Louis Wu 17:35:22 UTC)

Top Ten Halo 3 Screenshots: Men of the Wheel
This week's Top Ten Halo 3 Screenshots collection at halo3screenshots.com is called 'Men of the Wheel' - some are (as you might expect) cool vehicle images, but others are... more specific. Great collection! (Louis Wu 17:25:35 UTC)

Fixed For Fall
It's been in the Weekly Update Archive since last night, but we neglected to mention the Bungie Weekly Update at that point - so we're letting you know now that it's up and available. It's definitely worth a read - it's full of things in the Halo Reach Beta that are already fixed for the full release later this year. Anyone who feels the need to jump onto a Halo forum somewhere and vent about how stupid this bug or that glitch is... check this update, it's likely you'll see the object of your fury is already gone in the final product. There's also word of a pretty cool contest at Haloscreenshots.com (the guys who will print and frame your favorite shot) - submit cool screens, and you could end up SEEING that screen, printed on canvas, on your wall. When you're done reading, make sure you're playing Invasion... it's a HECK of a lot of fun. (Louis Wu 12:27:23 UTC)

Powerhouse tactical composite
RVideo did a nice job compositing Powerhouse from a series of overhead screens (it shows more than Bungie's version, and is quite a bit larger) - and then, with the help of some forumgoers, he added common callouts. Give these a look - they could help your game! (Louis Wu 11:57:21 UTC)

Sketcherrific
Yesterday, SketchFactor posted a bunch of screenshots he'd taken in the Halo: Reach Beta. Fun stuff! If you don't like 'em, though, he tells us there are plenty more to choose from... as of yesterday, more than 375,000 screenshots had been snapped in the Beta. If a picture is worth a thousand words... that's a lotta words. (Louis Wu 11:27:48 UTC)

It's like Dark Side of the Moon and Oz...
Whew - too much to do today. News catchup time... Let's start with 'The Silent Cartographer' featuring John Powell. Phi1LzA was playing the opening of The Silent Cartographer, and happened to be playing John Powell scores in the background. He was astounded by how smoothly everything lined up, so he decided to share. Pretty cool! (Louis Wu 18:23:56 UTC)

Elite Comparison
Riceatron took a bunch of high-res screenshots of an Elite in both Halo 3 and Halo: Reach, and stuck them all together in a monster image, so that you can get a feel for how the Elite model has been upgraded. And wow... it's been upgraded. I mean, that's been clear for a while, but this image shows you EXACTLY how impressive the changes are. (Louis Wu 18:04:56 UTC)

Bring Your Halo on the Road
How very cool - if you visit Vehicles for GARMIN nuvi, you can download two Halo vehicles to use on your GARMIN nuvi GPS - a Ghost, and a Warthog. (Pics are just screensnaps; the interface is Flash-based.) Thanks to rocketwidget for noticing! (Louis Wu 16:27:23 UTC)

Shellheads
The Rooster Teeth crew whipped up a special video to be shown before a screening of Iron Man 2 at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin; Burnie just made the link public, so the world can see it. What's better than the RvB players plus Iron Man? Not a whole lot... (Louis Wu 01:01:29 UTC)

Gamers for Giving 2010
Remember Zach Wigal, the guy who went and started an entire charity organization when his school wouldn't let him hold a Halo tournament there? The group he founded - Gamers Outreach Foundation - is back with another Gamers for Giving event on May 1, in Ann Arbor - with money raised to go to Mott Children's Hospital. Swing by MyFoxDetroit for details! (Louis Wu 14:05:58 UTC)

The Video Onslaught Commences... Now
GiantBomb has posted a bunch of footage (35 minutes!) they grabbed during the press event they attended last week - this is the first real (full-game-by-randoms) gameplay we've seen. They start off playing Network Defense, but move into other gametypes, and there's commentary from a couple of attendees and some people asking him questions. This is FULL of interesting information! Thanks, DEEP NNN. (The embargo on video footage ends today, so it's likely we're going to see quite a bit.) (Louis Wu 14:00:23 UTC)

More press
dCon V found two more Kotaku articles: there's a piece discussing the concept of classes, as they might apply to Reach, and there's a gallery of screenshots (these are available in lots of places now). Update: And one more - Gamespot has posted their hands-on (thanks, GhaleonEB). (Louis Wu 15:37:24 UTC)

Oresome Organization
Wow. If you want all the goodness that is Reach Beta information, in one place... you couldn't do better than GhaleonEB's thread-starting post for the Halo: Reach Beta Thread on NeoGAF. Now THAT'S some nice summarization. (Louis Wu 15:00:08 UTC)
