Another Blast from the Past: E3 2003
FyreWulff has gone through the E3 2003 Halo 2 Demo and pointed out the parts that made it into the final game. Most of these have been known about for a long time (after all, E3 2003 was six years ago)... but at least one I'd never thought about - the screens that eventually showed up in Cairo Station. In any event, it's a nice look back at a pants-wetting (at the time) demonstration... just in time for whatever Bungie's got planned THIS year! (Louis Wu 19:00:25 UTC)

What do packaged meat and Halo have in common?
LoneRanger 2.5 pointed out that Oddee.com recently posted an article entitled "12 Alphabets Made of Objects" - and the Halo Corpse Alphabet is on the list. (Personally, I loved the Sky alphabet - but they're all pretty cool.) (Louis Wu 15:29:01 UTC)

Halo: Uprising - the strong push
Now that all four issues of Halo: Uprising have actually been released, Marvel's started some hardcore marketing of the hardcover version of the collection - you can view some shots from it in this MTV article, and you can read the first issue of the comic online for free. (Me? I'm waiting for Helljumpers and Black.) (Louis Wu 18:41:29 UTC)

Tag and Release - Fun
Even though yesterday was a holiday, Bungie posted a new Tag and Release feature, showing off screenshots using the tag 'fun'. I'm not sure that term is properly used in all cases - but it can't be denied that the shots are well-composed!

Control Your Recon
Bungie wants to give you Recon - just play some Team Control (this week's Double XP playlist), take a cool screenshot (just one), tag it right, and you could be sporting the most exclusive armor by week's end. (Read the rules, and play nice.) (Louis Wu 19:28:25 UTC)

Watch Movies, Win Recon
Goodies, courtesy of the BungLog™:
- A screenshot montage from A Deaf Boy, consisting of the best output he could find for the month of May.
- A new funtage from The Funtage Crew - lots of entertaining clips

- The Tyrant is offering Recon for folks who succeed in beating various campaign levels on Mythic difficulty - read the post for details
That's a lot of videos, and a lot of Recon! (Louis Wu 17:55:42 UTC)

Halo 3 - there's no candy on the ground.
Rooster Teeth started a video series a while back - it's called 'Pajamachievements', and it's basically a bunch of chicks in pajamas, playing videogames and trying to earn achievements. (Usually, they're brand-new to the game in question.) The latest episode is Halo 3. Halo 3 + hot chicks + sleepwear + vodka = pure awesomeness. (Louis Wu 15:33:13 UTC)

Halo 3 Forge Art: Video Game Edition
Hawty McBloggy collected a couple of dozen screenshots with an interesting theme - they're all related to OTHER video games. Some are just simple outlines, others are... much, much more. They all show a love for the genre. Swing by and check 'em out™! (See that? I'm adding to my empire.) (Louis Wu 13:10:45 UTC)

The Running Riot - Hosting Jerks since May 19
Some of you may have visited the Running Riot last night, to participate in a live podcast that had me as a guest. To all of you who did (and to Kete) - I'd like to issue an apology. A family issue kept me from attending, and I'm really, really sorry for any wasted time anyone experienced. We're going to reboot this puppy, though; it's on again for tonight, and it'll take my house burning down to keep me from being there this time. If you'd like to participate, I'd be honored. Swing by at 9 or 9:30 EST (the chatroom will be running at 9, but I think the actual event starts at 9:30), and we'll do our best to make you forget last night. (Louis Wu 13:55:42 UTC)

Monday Comic Roundup
The comic crowd wasn't too busy this weekend:
- Elnea posted Halo Action Figure Theater #177 - The Last Straw; some very nice setup work went into this. (A photo is included.)
- Bloogyo let us know about Rat's Nest Episode 14 - it started here, and the most recent segment is here. It's a story of the Chief that's never been told.
- TTL Demag0gue told us about Reclaimer 187 - Combat of the Mind. A history lesson... and some chilling predictions.
I'm craving donuts... (Louis Wu 12:32:15 UTC)

Vidmaster Weekend Recon Challenge
Bungie wants to help you get Recon armor now, rather than waiting for the release of Halo 3: ODST. You need to complete the Vidmaster Annual Achievement tomorrow, May 17 (even if you've completed it before) - and take a picture of something cool. One screenshot per person, winning shots get Recon for the entire party of four. Need more details? Read the Bungie.net post. (Read it carefully; my guess is, any rules get broken, and you're not eligible.) (Louis Wu 18:39:39 UTC)

Montage Turtle Soup
The Bungie MontageBlog has highlighted three new vids for you today:
- A Deaf Boy has put together a montage of screenshots grabbed during the Mythic Brawl Double XP weekend
- Halo 3 In The Work Place has posted their latest collection of clips, 'Inertia'. There's also a challenge that will likely never be met.
- ganit appleby has put together the second Ma-Ma-Montage, with clips snagged from fileshares.
That should take care of your lunch break... (Louis Wu 17:48:30 UTC)

Basic Callouts for Halo 3 Maps
FPSBuddy has posted a series of images showing some common Halo 3 multiplayer map callouts; if you've found yourself wondering how to tell your teammates where that guy who just killed you might be (or you're having trouble figuring out THEIR callouts), you might want to check these. They're limited - but it's a a start. (Louis Wu 13:36:44 UTC)

Love you, mom

Halo 3 Fails Episode 19
Once again, it's chris10023 with word of the latest Halo 3 Fails: Halo 3 Fails Episode 19 contains some seriously bad luck. (I have to say, though, my favorite clip in the entire film is the first one after the credits start - it's not a fail at all, it's an amazing win.) (Louis Wu 22:35:32 UTC)

It's always 'Blame Stosh' - where does it end?

Dunh dunh dunuh dun dun dun duh...
Halo0001 X sent word of Mandlbaum in: "White Bomb" [Part 3 of 3] - it's a tribute to all those "so bad they're good" movies from 20 or 30 years ago that you stumble across while you're channel-surf, and then find yourself strangely unable to turn off. Starts a little slow... but it definitely picks up. Makes me want to go find some Starsky and Hutch episodes...
