T and R - done.
I think this was the last big challenge from Halo, trick-wise... Ms. Man has gotten to the bottom of Truth and Reconciliation, in single-player. (He did this in Co-op mode back in October.) You can find the vid in WMP9 format linked off the High Impact Halo forum (26.6 mb), or grab a QuickTime version from bungie.org (27.5 mb). Warning: the music will make your brain explode. And not in a good way. (Louis Wu 19:21:36 UTC)

Sin City: Trailer
Steve The Plank released 'Sin City: Trailer' last week over at High Impact Halo; it was greeted with approval. He submitted it to the Movie Peer Review Rating System, where it was ALSO greeted with approval. For anyone who hasn't seen it yet - you can grab the original WMP9 (6.8 mb), or a cropped (to get rid of a lot of the extra black space - actual film size hasn't changed one pixel) QuickTime (also 6.8 mb) from our servers. Nicely captures the grit of the Sin City movie, with great editing and a close attention to the original trailer. (Louis Wu 13:45:45 UTC)

The Calm Before The Storm
The Codex, Episode 14, has been released - this one keeps getting better. Great filming, great voice work, an interesting storyline. Nice cliffhanger, even. Go watch - and let 'em know what you think! (QuickTime and WMP9 formats.) (Louis Wu 13:01:58 UTC)

Farewell - a montage
A week ago, rywateska posted a note on our forum about a montage vid he put together, to commemorate his need to leave the Halo 2 community. It was hosted over at cheapassgamer.com (still is, in fact) - but he then submitted it to our Movie Peer Review Rating System. The reviewers liked it - an impressive feat these days for a montage vid. Great timing, nice music, decent video quality. We're releasing two versions - a QuickTime (44.2 mb, bungie.org | mythica.org) and a WMP9 (45.8 mb, mythica.org | bungie.org). If you haven't already seen this, grab it now! (Louis Wu 13:51:00 UTC)

Grenade Collecting for Dummies.
Awesome. Over at High Impact Halo, Dark Helmet has created a fantastic tutorial vid showing how to collect grenades for Halo 1 grenade jumping - not just the basics, but how to make a really nice, tight pile. Soundtrack is from South Park, and deserves a NSFW warning. 29.4 mb, WMP9 format. For the heck of it, I've added a QuickTime version - 28 mb - as well. (I wrote this up about 8 hours ago, but somehow forgot to post it. Duh.) (Louis Wu 02:28:00 UTC)

Bunker 27 Episode 1
Not long ago, Goose submitted Bunker 27 Episode 1, "In the Beginning", to our Movie Peer Review Rating System. The vid didn't pass, but he got a decent amount of useful feedback; he went back, re-edited the film to fix some of the problems reviewers noted, and resubmitted. Second time's the charm; this one made it through. Nice visual effects, silly humor, good filming. If there's anyone stupider than Donut out there... it's Goose. (The character, not the real-life filmmaker.) Grab this in WMP9 format (31.2 mb, mythica.org | bungie.org) or QuickTime format (27.8 mb, bungie.org | mythica.org) and enjoy! If you like it, they'll make more. (They'll probably make more anyway, actually. They said they would, anyway.) (Louis Wu 16:21:31 UTC)

The Overviews Continue
More versions of the Microsoft-commissioned map overviews are appearing - 1Up.com was first out of the gate yesterday with Containment, though the aspect ratio is all wrong. (Their QuickTime link works now, though - thanks, Blackstar.) GameTrailers.com is now serving QT and WMP9 versions of this - 480x360, about 8 and a half megs each. (Thanks, Christian Andersen.) They're also hosting similarly-sized versions of a Warlock trailer from that series. The first version of Warlock to show up, though, was at TeamXbox, in WMP9 format, at 640x480 (16.1 mb) - thanks, Oddworld. Look for the other 7 maps to be spotlighted soon around the net.

Containment overview posted
1Up.com has posted a multiplayer video of Containment today - nice footage, in a variety of formats. The QuickTime link, at the time of this writing, does not work - but I'm sure it'll be up later. The aspect ratio on the large downloadable WMP9 is a little screwy, too... but (as the news post says) this (and vids like it, covering the other 8 maps) were made by Microsoft (well, FOR Microsoft, anyway), and will likely be available from many outlets in the not too distant future. Nice camerawork! (Louis Wu 13:19:47 UTC)

Halo Poo
Z, over at Halo2Forum.com, let us know about a new vid posted last night. It's called 'Halo Poo', and it's a disappointment vid... but it's live-action, and parts are pretty funny. There's some unpleasantness (fake vomit, in the form of oatmeal and water), but mostly it's a look at the surprise and disappointment these guys felt when they played Halo 2 on live the first time. Watch it with a sense of humor - or pass it by. WMP9 format, 38.2 mb. (Louis Wu 12:49:02 UTC)

Insert Quarter to Purchase Health
The Wahttehhog Clan has released their first video in an ongoing series - it passed our Movie Peer Review Rating System yesterday, so you can grab a copy in either QuickTime format (35.2 mb, bungie.org | mythica.org) or WMP9 format (36 mb, mythica.org | bungie.org). Dialogue's pretty funny. <g> (Louis Wu 13:27:12 UTC)

GGZ Post New Movies
Dennis Powers points out two movies at Gearbox Game Zone - the first is called 'They said it was impossible', and it takes a look at HaloCE, and shows what's been possible with it. (This might have been prettier had it been filmed on a machine with a more powerful graphics card - but the composition is quite nice.) Available in both WMP9 and QuickTime, 25-37 mb. The second is Halo Tron 2.01, a remake of Tron with some help from the Halo engine. Interesting idea! Again, WMP9 and QuickTime formats, 29.7 mb each. Go watch! (Louis Wu 10:48:40 UTC)

Flame War - Blood on the Snow
Yesterday, Yaksha visited our forums to let us know that Sponsors vs Freeloaders, Episode 7: 'Flame War - Blood on the Snow' was available for download at their website. Downloads were painfully slow, though, due to demand... so they put up a smaller version. However, it's pretty darned impressive at full res, so we're tossing up a pair of mirrors for the high-res version (76.9 mb, mythica.org | bungie.org), and adding a pair of high-res QuickTime mirrors (68.9 mb, bungie.org | mythica.org). Go grab this; it's filmed in Halo CE, and it's really well done. (It helps if you've watched previous episodes; the storyline makes very little sense otherwise.) They've REALLY gotten away from their silly, mostly-for-a-lark roots; this story turns deadly serious near the end of this episode. Definitely up there with the best of 'em. (Louis Wu 19:40:16 UTC)

Jump Tactics Spoof: Episode 4
A few days ago, Halogrid.com released Jump Tactics Spoof: Episode 4 - and at the same time, submitted it to our Movie Peer Review Rating System. The MPRRS reviewers are taking a bit longer than they used to to review films - but last night, they passed this video, enjoying things like the modded content, the lack of a HUD, and the silly humor. It's not so much of a real jumping vid spoof, as it is just a bunch of folks getting together and doing silly things... but they do a nice job, and it's put together well. It's 11:13 long, and weighs in at 73.1 mb (WMP9) or 75.0 mb (QT)... big! Go grab a copy. In addition to the four mirrors listed at Halogrid.com, we can add these two for the WMP9 version: mythica.org | bungie.org. Also, we've put up a QuickTime version for those who can't deal with WMP9 - you can grab it here: bungie.org | mythica.org. Enjoy! (Louis Wu 16:57:41 UTC)

Squad 7 Ep 1
Sector 7 Halo has put up Squad 7 Episode 1, the first chapter of their machinima project. 3:21, 30 mb. Seems like it must be a setup for the rest of the series... (Louis Wu 12:59:01 UTC)

Microsoft Nihilists to have Last Laugh?
Supertoy sends word that AICN is reporting (with back-up from Variety) that Fox and Universal have partnered to purchase the Alex Garland Halo script mentioned earlier this week. Not like it wasn't going to get bought by somebody, right? (mnemesis 06:06:05 UTC)

Outpost Coag Ep 8
Outpost Coagulation Episode 8 has been released - you can grab a copy at Treeskunk's website, or at HaloMachinima.com. 8 minutes long, and the voice acting continues to improve. Nicely done, overall. 56.4 mb, in WMP9 format. (There's something funky about halfway through that keeps me from being able to encode this as a QuickTime file - it plays fine, but it won't convert. Sorry.) According to the Treeskunk website, this might be the last episode for a while. Update: trigger119 wrote to say that although the main writer was going to be gone for the summer, he (trigger) would finish the last two episodes of the season, so there are more coming. (There'll also be outtake releases and such while Bzerker's gone.) (Louis Wu 14:42:27 UTC)

Yeah - more vids from the 5 new maps at TXB, too - 7 of 'em, to be precise. All in WMP9 format. Thanks, Reconaz. (Louis Wu 14:10:46 UTC)

Eskimo
My goodness, I can be forgetful. Another vid passed through the Movie Peer Review Rating System last night; it's called 'Eskimo', and it was created by Jamie98s, recently in our news for his 28 Days Later re-enactment. Eskimo is a 4:25 long vid telling the story of a man's journey to find his eskimo friend. Warning: it does NOT have a happy ending. (Funny, maybe... but not happy.) You can grab it in WMP9 format (14.6 mb) or QuickTime format (14.5 mb). Enjoy! (Louis Wu 20:03:39 UTC)

Halo Tricking Tribute
anti noob created a really nice Halo 1 tricking tribute vid, grabbing some of the best moments from dozens of vids showing some of the best Halo tricks released, nicely put together. 13:16 long, 58 mb, DivX encoding. In addition to the thread on our forum, there's a thread at High Impact Halo - toss in your own 2 cents! (Louis Wu 10:55:10 UTC)

Johnny Suede pointed us to a link to his montage vid, Buckwheats. Lots of snipes, nicely timed to Drowning Pool's Bodies. 54 mb, MPEG1 format. (Louis Wu 10:34:46 UTC)

A Day at the Races - coming soon
Bloodmoon Studios is working on a new machinima project called 'A Day at the Races' - you can find the trailer for it on their website, or at That Weasel Television. The full movie (about 4 racers who have to deal with each other, as well as an evil villain) is coming soon. Check it out! (Louis Wu 09:50:06 UTC)

A Day in Halo and Halo 2
In early May, Raz0r_117 submitted his movie, entitled 'A Day In Halo And Halo 2', to our Movie Peer Review Rating System. It didn't pass - although reviewers liked the diversity of the montage, they thought parts were repetitive, and the quality of the video was pretty low - but Raz0r found hosting for this at That Weasel Television. You can go watch it there! (If you disagree with our reviewers' opinions, speak out on our forum.) (Louis Wu 17:23:39 UTC)
