Fan Coolness at Waypoint
bs angel sent along some fun links from Halo Waypoint's website recently:
- Carmen created some driveable (and edible) terrain for a Warthog when she made a birthday cake for her brother-in-law. Yum!
- Team Ephiphany put together their second collection of Halo Reach Epic Kills - no snipers here! (Well, almost none.) Just 90 seconds long.
- xSoGx Grim has made news before, by building giant characters in Forge - he's back with an enormous Prophet. Amazing!
- The only thing that would make this Grunt any more adorable would be a head filled with confetti. But then you'd have too shoot it! How could you shoot something so cute?
Go check 'em out! There's plenty more coming soon. (Louis Wu 12:27:01 UTC)

Big man forgets what cake tastes like sometimes.
Main Dammie and some friends put together an Emile cake for a birthday on Friday... awesome use of frosting! (Louis Wu 17:57:31 UTC)

The Grunt is not a lie
Don Whitford let us know that his wife made a Grunt Birthday Party Cake for him this year - you can see it in her blog. Don has a pretty awesome wife! (She apologizes for getting Grunt blood color wrong... I say it looks delicious as is!)

Waypoint Wowzers
Okay, I'll admit it - even though Halo Waypoint has some of the coolest Halo content out there, I don't visit as often as I should, because Silverlight makes things just a little bit harder for me. So I'm really, really grateful that bs angel whips up weekly updates, which makes finding the good bits we missed during the week much, much easier. Here's some stuff we didn't get to this week:
- ElevatorAsassin built a bucket wheel excavator in Forge - the contstruction process is pretty fun to watch!
- angel found a few clips of driving gone bad - with hilarious results!
- The same guy who built a giant (firing) Jun has also built a giant Noble Six. Too bad he's on grass, or we could call him the Colossus of Roads. (Yes... yes, that was awful.)
- Noble Team showed up at Anime Weekend Atlanta. Well, most of 'em, anyway.
- Forge Hub has a pretty cool new gametype for you to try - Revball.
- A cool fan-made Skirmisher costume is on display - red feathers and all!
- Dani's Ghostbusters gametype gets some love (we first mentioned it last month)
- David and Angela got married - and Halo was there.
There are also a pair of new top stories you may have missed - Vociferous' fantastic 'A Different Way to Campaign' series gets a new episode, called 'The Passenger'. (Can you use the Halo AI for as much awesomeness as he does?) And The Mjolnir Project 2 is up - showing another chapter in the history of the successful body protector. Go explore!

Catching up on Waypoint
bs angel kindly summarizes the Halo goodies posted on Waypoint each week; we catch most of 'em as we go (thanks, Grim!), but there are some cool ones that get missed, so the summary is welcome. Stuff you should see, if you haven't already:
- xSoGx Grim created Jun-A266... in Forge. The dude even shoots.
- NeeKo217 created the most adorable Elite plushy I've ever seen. I wanna hold him, and squeeze him, and... plant a fur-covered stickydoom on his noggin.
- Have you ever thought to yourself, "man, Carter's helmet looks so good I wish I could eat it!"? No, me either. But if you did, you should hunt down Gemma and grab her Halo Reach Helmet Cake, because it almost certainly tastes better than a normal helmet.
- aVeryEasyTarget has been building some Reach panoramas - stunning! (There are also some tips for making your own, if you'd like to play along.)
- The latest 'Different Way to Campaign" entry is called 'Superior Firepower' - vociferous shows you how crazy it can get if you bring, say, a Gauss Hog to a foot battle.
There's more - screenshots, some stuff that was time-sensitive and now past, etc - so be sure to explore. (Louis Wu 17:24:01 UTC)

Movie Madness
Nice grab bag of stuff at Bungie.net today:
- Serious Cakes' Lady Cake Ninja celebrated her solo completion of Reach's campaign on Legendary by creating a super-cool Ghost cake - go check it out.
- Axilo put together his first Reach minitage - two and a half minutes of boom-boom. (I'm amused that the teaser pic is of an assault rifle.)
- Project Clan released a Halo 3 trick jumping montage - music makes my head hurt, but the jumps are pretty cool.
Go watch. (Louis Wu 19:44:18 UTC)

Let them see cake
Apparently, Spencermx14 was feeling a little front-page envy when he saw Nevan's Birthday Cake, so he wanted to show off his own. Pretty sweet!

Happy Halo!
Nevan received a pretty cool cake for his 21st birthday - go see!

JonCJG Machinima Update
I need to start looking for these more often; I keep missing updates. Here's what's new:
- One Life Remaining S2: Episode 11
- Arby 'n' the Chief S04E08: "B&" (2/2)
- Arby 'n' the Chief S04E09: "Digital Fruitcakes" (plus the production script)
OLR is a little confusing, Arby 'n' the Chief is not. Go watch! (Louis Wu 15:06:18 UTC)

Time to bake that cake
ZZoMBiE13 has come back to close the loop - he's submitted one final episode of Another Halo Comic Strip. It's funny, and it's fantastically drawn, and it's got a sad goodbye attached. You should go look. (Louis Wu 14:45:47 UTC)

Waypoint Nuggets
As always these days, there's a ton of new content at Halo Waypoint's website - I think I'd get snowed under if I tried to summarize all of it, but here are a couple of choice tidbits I wish I'd noticed sooner:
- This Reach Legendary Cake is seriously legendary.
- Fails of the Weak Volume 2 is a video from the Achievement Hunter crew - the fails are funny, but the series title is funnier.
Swing by the site for lots more stuff; they're keeping busy! (Louis Wu 19:12:12 UTC)

Good enough to eat
ElzarTheBam noticed a pretty cool blogpost at The Kartel - lots of seriously amazing Halo cakes! (Louis Wu 05:56:02 UTC)

It's time to bake that... oh, never mind
There's something about a game launch that makes people bake. Hawty McBloggy has a piece today showing off a gorgeous confection based on the Reach Legendary box, and Chris Stoos told us that when he arrived home from a weekend away, his wife had this masterpiece waiting for him. (More pictures of Chris' cake, including the adorable ONI logo and the delicious-looking inside, are on his wife's cooking blog.) I think it's time to talk to my wife... (Louis Wu 18:54:28 UTC)

Oh, look - a helmet with an observation tower
Mmm... yum. Halo: Reach cupcakes! Thanks, Hawty.

Hawty McBloggy found a pretty cool little Halo 2-inspired grenade cake at jimmy cakes... looks delicious! (Louis Wu 14:25:49 UTC)

Fun at Hawty's
TOTALLY forgot to post this yesterday - but it was Friday, which means it was time for another Friday Caption Fun round at Hawty McBloggy's. Check out the best entries from last week - and a new (and funky) pic you can help with this week! While you're there, check out the Spartan Laser cake - you can actually BUY it!

Berday Cake!
Bleh - I wrote this up three hours ago, forgot to post it. PharoahsRaiment continues to brighten days - is it your birthday? Well, it's gotta be soon, right? Sometime in the next 50 weeks or so, at least... (Louis Wu 20:18:52 UTC)

Sweet Helmet!
Last weekend, Cake Wrecks put up a gamer-themed series of cakes for their 'Sunday Sweets' series (non-wrecks, all) - there are some really spectacular cakes in there, including a very nice Spartan Helmet! Check 'em out. Thanks, GhaleonEB. (Louis Wu 14:26:25 UTC)

I guess you all want a slice, huh?
General Vagueness noticed (before I did, dangit!) the cake on our front page, signifying our 11th birthday today - in Internet years, that means HBO is ready for Depends and a steady supply of Ensure. Thanks to all of you for being here... we couldn't do this without you! (Louis Wu 11:10:01 UTC)

SwordCake... mmmmm
AfroRyan and friends made cake to celebrate the Halo: Reach Beta. After looking at the pics, I think you'll agree that though the cake is pretty amazing, it's AfroRyan's 'fro that really makes the celebration. Enjoy. (Louis Wu 22:19:53 UTC)

HaloGAF Delivers.
As any long-time reader of HBO probably knows, the Halo thread(s) on NeoGAF are goldmines of awesome content; I've gone through the Halo Reach Beta thread there, and pulled out all the content that hasn't been mentioned here yet. Go enjoy it.
- Demoncarnotaur has a pretty cool girlfriend; she did her best to build him a Wraith cake for his 21st birthday. It might be a little flat... but the effort is awesome.
- Kibbles went through the Carnàge Carnivàle ViDoc, and pulled out all the actual gameplay footage. No devs - just play. 4:37, in YouTube's HD.
- Six-Okay (ex-343 Community Manager) whipped up a Power-Puff-Girls-inspired version of Noble Team. Check it out on his blog. Thanks, Zeouterlimits.
- Dani ran across a YouTube video from ConsoleCreatures - it's footage from the Canadian Press Event last week. Nice flavor, for folks who've never been.
- More art, courtesy of Zeouterlimits - Ben K, of Ars Technica, tweeted about Gamma360's drawing of Emile.
- Kibbles pointed out that Xbox Evolved converted an Inside Xbox feature about the Reach Beta from its XBLM flavor to a web-based flavor.
- Waypoint's Cocopjojo let the thread know that they'd filmed a full-length video of an Invasion match - no editing, just gameplay - and put it on YouTube. This is really, really cool. (Especially since you won't be getting your OWN chance to play this gametype until May 7.)
- Waypoint's GLYPH pointed out that if you don't have access to Halo Waypoint on Xbox LIVE, you can still watch their Reach Beta Primer online - either streaming, or via download (it's a 343 mb, 640x360 .wmv). Good stuff in there - including the first successful footage I've seen of the lock-on potential of the Reach Rocket Launcher. Hello, Halo 2!
- (One more) Son of Godzilla posted links to YouTubed versions he put up of Luke Smith's GamesRadar game+commentary. It's in two parts: Part 1 | Part 2
Go check this stuff out - it's super awesome. (Louis Wu 01:54:05 UTC)

Emerald City ComiCon - now with Halo goodness
CaptainTony pointed out that 343 Industries will be present at the Emerald City ComiCon on March 13, to discuss recent releases and upcoming Halo developments. And bentllama waited until his mouth wasn't full of pancakes to tell folks that he will be one of the artists in Artist Alley - he'll be doing live digital sketching, and charity commissions! (There'll be plenty of other Halo-related artists there, too, he says.) If you're in the Seattle area, don't miss it! (Louis Wu 13:01:04 UTC)
