A Future Fair for All
I's like to introduce you to the next revolution in the Halo Custom Game experience. Raise a hand for The People's Republic of Customs, where you don't don't just vote for the map and gametype, you vote for change. I'd also like to draw your attention to the impeccable grammatical structure of this particular news post. Coming soon, my opinion on an eleven year-old thread that seems to have no connection to the current conversation whatsoever. (Gnrl Vagueness 14:12:54 UTC)

Havin' a Bud, drawin' the game
Isaac Hannaford was one of a number of artists who drew custom art for fans at last weekend's Emerald City Comic-Con - and he put up a blog post about it, showing off a couple of the pieces he drew. Awesome! Thanks, Black Six. (Louis Wu 13:46:14 UTC)

Halo 4: FLAGtacular!
Skywalker DSP came by with another gameplay vid - this one is a 6v6 CTF custom game on Ravine. Definitely has some great gameplay moments... and the commentary is entertaining! Go watch. (Louis Wu 17:42:26 UTC)

HaloCustoms - helping you find custom carnage
If you like the idea of playing Halo 4 Custom games, but your friends list isn't big enough (or have enough like-minded people) to let this happen regularly, you might want to check out HaloCustoms.com - it's a new website devoted to helping people link up for fun custom games. The Halo Forge Epidemic's PsychoDuck recorded a nice intro to the service recently - go watch! Thanks to ShortBizzle for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 17:34:23 UTC)

Safe Haven - A Giveaway
A kind benefactor provided us with a whole bunch of Halo 4 Premium Haven themes for your Xbox LIVE dashboard (here's a pic of what it looks like, on the Home screen). Normally, these themes cost 240 MS Points, but we're giving 'em away for free! If you want one, just swing by this page to grab a code. (Don't be greedy, please...) Update: looks like a batch of codes got included that had already been used. If you received a code that was rejected by Xbox LIVE as already used, please contact me directly and I'll get you a new one. Thanks! Update 2: Sorry - they're all gone! (If you got a dupe, and I sent you a note on Xbox LIVE, I'm still holding those codes for you.) (Louis Wu 19:10:22 UTC)

Back seat scoring
Halo Waypoint has a video called 'Making of the UNSC Raptor: Pt 1' - it shows off what Galpin Auto Sports did to build the custom Ford F150 Raptor that will go to the winner of the Infinity Challenge. (Well... it talks about what they did. You'll have to wait for Part 2 to see the actual modifications.) Thanks, Havok. (Louis Wu 19:52:10 UTC)

Custom Flood games introduce fun variations
The Halo Forge Epidemic has a couple of videos up on their YouTube stream that offer intriguing custom options to Halo 4 players - take a look and download the maps! Jurassic Park is a take on the Flood gametype - the map actually has self-driving vehicles on it! (Thanks, Tawpgun.) How they managed this isn't explained, but they DID say a tutorial would be coming. There's also a gametype that brings up memories of Slender Man - it's another Flood-based game, and apparently it's really, really scary. Check these out, and give 'em a try with your friends!

Binary Slayer - Thrust and Kill
IGN released a video showing you how to create a custom gametype called 'Binary Slayer' - this one is played around the 343 office, and looks to be frenetic (and likely frustrating at times). Hopefully, the day will come soon when we can point you to a Fileshare download link for gametypes like this. Thanks to Ryan McCaffrey for the heads-up on NeoGAF. (Louis Wu 15:52:07 UTC)

A UNSC Raptor on the Horizon?
According to Xbox360Achievements.org, it looks like the next DLC pack for Forza Horizon will include the "Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Halo Edition", which is said to feature a custom livery designed by 343 Industries. While it's still not the Warthog us combo Halo & Forza fans have been hoping for, it's still pretty cool! (GrimBrother One 19:30:08 UTC)

Halo 4 Ringtones - Batch 1
This came in yesterday, but we just didn't get to it - MoltenSlowa has recorded a bunch of weapon/announcer sounds from Halo 4 that you can use for custom ringtones - grab the entire batch (11mb, zipped) and use what you like! (Louis Wu 18:31:14 UTC)

Thruster Busters - Try It Today!
The Halo Forge Epidemic created a pretty cool custom mini-game for Halo 4 called 'Thruster Busters' - I haven't played it, but the video explaining how it works makes it look like an awful lot of fun! Go give it a try. Thanks to NeoGAF's MrBig for the heads-up.

Astounding Kat Armor Build
Tex told us about a recent armor build at the 405th that is, in a word, amazing. LilTyrant kicked off her build in January, and posted painted pics last month - you can swing by Imgur to see a huge gallery (105 images) showing off all the incredible detail. My jaw is still on the floor. (Louis Wu 16:49:46 UTC)

Pre-Order Bonuses... out of hand
Huh. If you pre-order Halo 4 at Wal-Mart, you get the Circuit Armor skin as a pre-order bonus. But what if you've pre-ordered somewhere else? Looks like Wal-Mart's selling that skin for 35 cents. And so it begins... (thanks, Amazing Mic). (Louis Wu 16:16:29 UTC)

Ragnarok - and the Mantis
The big news this morning is a double-punch - it's information that came out last week, unofficially, but the embargo has been raised, and 343 wants you to get an eyeful. Halo 3's Valhalla is back... in Halo 4, it's called Ragnarok. (The remake, at least what we can see of it in the new trailer on Halo Waypoint, or the new image gallery of scenery shots, looks to be pretty faithful to the original.) The second punch? The Mantis, a multiplayer vehicle we saw in renders last week, is playable on this map (and the video has footage). Greenskull already has an impressions video up - go see what he thinks of the map, and the mech! On our own forum, uberfoop kicked off a discussion thread - go add your two cents! Update: looks like I should have held off just a little - nomis78 announced a CommunityCustoms writeup, and CyReN let us know about a HaloCouncil breakdown from xClicked. Folks have been chomping at the bit to talk about this! Update 2: Until Halo Waypoint gets it up onto their own channel, there's a HD version of the Mantis vid on YouTube, posted by GoombaStompShow - nice for folks who can't get Silverlight to work.

New content at CC
nomis78 stopped in with word of some new content at the Community Customs site - part 7 of Gravemind's 'Building the Ultimate Halo Game' is up (this piece looks at multiplayer), and Hyokin posted a 'Brief Guide to Forge (Halo Reach Edition)' - consider it a cheat sheet for avoiding common problems. Go read!

Firefight Descent
Dennis from HaloMaps sent word of a new custom single-player level for Halo Custom Edition - it's called 'Firefight Descent', and it was created by MoooseGuy and Pepzee. It gives you Firefight-style play, with multiple rounds of increasing difficulty. Take a look! (Louis Wu 19:42:55 UTC)
