Controllers for GIs
Over at Halo3Forum.com, there's a thread started by someone working at a military base in Kuwait - he's looking for donations of used controllers and copies of Halo 2 (the conditions there are such that controllers don't last long). Swing by and read the details - and help out if you can! Thanks, QuickTactical. (Louis Wu 20:28:39 UTC)

Jackson chats about Halo filming
Pete Williamson ran across an interesting article on Stuff (in New Zealand) - Peter Jackson was in a talkative mood. The article is about a new Jackson-produced film called 'Dambusters', but Halo came up:

Jackson said Halo was likely to start shooting early next year - and it was possible Halo and Dambusters could be shot about the same time.
Not really surprising, I suppose - but definitely not commented on by any OTHER parties involved, yet. I like this Jackson guy! (Louis Wu 02:21:20 UTC)

Halo Heads Ep 1
Paul Maestri has started up a comic strip that focuses on 'scifi elements' - his first strip is here. I always wondered about that... (Louis Wu 12:29:58 UTC)

Hush Yo Casket!
This is what the Halo community is all about. rapture wrote up a summary of the last year for The Hushed Casket - a Halo-centric (though not exclusive) group in Huntsville, AL. Good friends, good times, good games. And some bad. (Sorry about the 360, rap.) Give it a read. Makes me want to start a local group! (Well, maybe not.) Thanks, Mintz and Slayer.

4 Marines and a Hog (starring Charlie Sheen?)
Heh - Ducain pointed out a new Halo vid, again by BigGruntyThirst, over at High Impact Halo... it builds on the technique shown in his recent variety vid, but as Ducain says, the kicker here is how easy he makes it all look! (This trick, from start to finish, is anything BUT easy.) Worth a look! (Louis Wu 12:08:37 UTC)

Halo 2's Peril, for Orchestra
Over at Rampancy.net, there's a new transcription of Peril, arranced for an orchestra. The download archive (which requires that you're logged in to see) contains a PrintMusic file and a PDF. Just in time for the school year to start! (Louis Wu 13:56:55 UTC)

Marathon Logos in Metal - Redux
Spartan Jag continues his metal-working - and it sounds like if he can get permission, he'll start selling this stuff. Take a look! (Louis Wu 13:46:16 UTC)

Details, Details...
Just a small thing... Psychophan7 noticed a tiny detail about the recently released Halo 2 Vista screenshots; there's been a change in the motion sensor. Other players still show up in red, or yellow, depending on whether they're friend or foe... but now there's also a directional aspect to the symbol. Again - a small thing, but a good example of the level of detail and care taken by the Halo 2 Vista team. Pretty cool! Update: Chris Butcher clarified that the Xbox version was SUPPOSED to work this way, as well - but the pixel shader responsible for the motion sensor blip motion broke before release, and never got fixed. Apparently, LOTS of little bugs like this have been fixed. (Louis Wu 14:16:26 UTC)

H2V Gameplay vids from IGN
IGN has some more Halo 2 Vista footage from Leipzig - they call it 'off-screen', which either means 'filmed with a video camera pointing at the monitor', or 'filmed directly off the screen'. (The audio is clearly live, but the video's quite good; doesn't look very 'shakey'. Audio sync on the Midship clip is AWFUL.) You can't see the huge improvements in detail that you'd see if these were, say, 1280x960 vids... but you CAN see the cool smoke effects, and in a few places on Lockout you can see the great level of detail improvements at a distance. (Gameplay is... well, sort of lame. But again, remember, none of these people have played Halo 2 on a keyboard and mouse before.) Thanks to HaloPlanet for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 15:45:52 UTC)

H2Vista section opens at B.net
Bungie has just opened a new section of their website - Halo 2 Vista. There's not much there yet, except a FAQ and some screenshots - but the screenshots are GORGEOUS. I wanna play. (And oh, yeah... up in the top right corner of the site is a new search box. Hint - it works for everything - including the forum!) Check it out! (Louis Wu 18:44:56 UTC)

Halo 2 Vista Not Ready for Prime Time Yet
At IGN, there's a short Hands-on piece about Halo 2 Vista from Leipzig - they suggested that the gameplay we saw yesterday WAS using a keyboard and mouse (suggesting that the code in use at Leipzig is NOT from the latest sprint, as described by Matt Priestley on Monday - I suppose this isn't surprising, if you think about it; they probably had to set up the Leipzig content well before now - and that code was reviewed just 5 days ago). On-screen indicators aside, the news from the IGN reviewers is that Halo 2 Vista feels... undone. In fact, they question why it's being shown at all at this point. Interesting...

Desolate
CROSSFIRE's 'Desolate' placed in the top 7 positions of movies that passed the MPRRS - making CROSSFIRE the second machinima creator to have two films in the top 7. It's a sequel to 'Havoc' (which came in third on that list), and it finishes up the story started there with a bleak look at the loss of hope. Gorgeous cinematography, great editing, great sound... this one's fantastic. It's quite long - almost 18 minutes - and weighs in at about 130 mb... but it's worth it. Grab it in WMP9 format (137 mb) or QuickTime format (126 mb). (Louis Wu 02:08:53 UTC)

ODST
Pinkuh created a new Halo art piece for Laird - this one started out as a simple sketch of an ODST... then it got inked... then it got colored. The final product is pretty slick! We've added it to her gallery here, too. (Louis Wu 21:26:02 UTC)

Crimson Halo Gift
Gone all day, starting to catch up... first up, a new movie. MaritalBlaze54 created 'Crimson Halo Gift', a tribute to Clan 0kinawa's Crimson Halo series. It portrays a modder being ganged up on by a bunch of non-modders. The MPRRS reviewers liked the camera angles, the video quality, the editing... they weren't thrilled with the soundtrack. Such is life, sometimes. You can grab this in WMP9 format (31.5 mb) or QuickTime format (34.1 mb). (Louis Wu 03:44:20 UTC)

Transmission Episode 0 - The Prologue
FireDragon04 wrote to point out a new movie series he's starting up - it's called 'Transmission', and the Prologue is now up on his site. A prison transport ship diverts from its path to help an ally, and runs into more than it bargained for. Take a look! (Louis Wu 12:24:34 UTC)

Walshy's Montage - in QuickTime
For lots of people, WMP9 is a difficult-to-use movie type; for those people, we do our best to provide most movies we host (or that we think are worth hosting) in QuickTime format. This is now true with Walshy's montage, released last night (check this MLGPro.com forum thread for lots of download links to the WMP9 version) - we're now offering a QuickTime version of the archive. It's identical to the WMP9 version (it contains the main montage, the Xtra video, and the screenshots of the 3D process), but everything's in QuickTime format. It's also a lot smaller - 126 mb instead of 216 mb. (Movie quality is nearly identical.) Grab this one if you're on a Mac, or would rather use QuickTime for any other reason!

Pink to Black
Whoa, bizarre. Back in March, we listed links to ISBNdb.com and Amazon.com for the upcoming Nylund novel, Ghosts of Coral. Following those links today, you find that the info hasn't changed... but if you change the 'com' in the amazon link to 'co.uk', you get to a book listed as 'Ghosts of Onyx' (quick screenshot, in case it changes). A mistake on Amazon.uk's part? Or a slip of an unannounced title? Nice find by Tartarus! Update: looks like he posted it on our forum, as well (forum name of AT-GNaT). Chime in with your thoughts!

Halo 2 Treasure Hunt

GetScrims
Jamie Anderson wrote to us about a new website he's started up - it's called GetScrims, and it's designed to match up people looking for games on XBL with others of similar skill level, attitude, etc. Think of it as more in-depth MatchMaking. Interesting concept! (Louis Wu 12:42:57 UTC)

Halo 3 Movie (animation)
Some interesting goings-on in our forum over the last day or so... let's start at the top and move down. Feenix noticed a cel-shaded pelican (and Pillar of Autumn) in a fan-made Halo animation on YouTube... fun! (Louis Wu 19:06:35 UTC)

Halo Director Announced
Wow... according to Xbox.com, a director has been chosen for the Halo movie... and it's a newcomer. Neill Blomkamp, who has a history of short films and commercial ads, will direct the Halo film as his first full-length big-screen project. Intriguing choice! Cornballer was first to our forum with the news. (Update: Whoops, looks like the Xbox.com page has been pulled. I guess that means that the unconfirmed nature of this bit is now even more firmly unconfirmed. Or something. - mnem) (Louis Wu 16:58:28 UTC)

Pink: it's the New Black
Briar's Armor has ANOTHER helmet for sale on eBay right now - starting bid is $200, you've got a week, and this one's bright pink. (And when I say bright, I mean it.) To folks offended by the sight of Halo paraphernalia for sale being mentioned here... apologies. No, we don't get a cut; we just believe there are a significant number of readers who appreciate being told about these. (Louis Wu 19:12:55 UTC)

Misc Art - and lots of it
It's been a month since the last Miscellaneous Art update - today's flood includes spectacular images from established community contributors like Edli, Darkneshasfallen, Marathon GTi, plus many, many other folks - both new and old. 30 entries, 36 images. Sketches, paintings, cartoons... I'm thinking it's time to start putting together more individual galleries again. Unfortunately, this does NOT clear out the Misc Art queue - there are still dozens of unposted pics. I'll do my best to put up another batch in the next little bit. (Louis Wu 15:56:19 UTC)
