Museum Delivers
Wow. The press for the 'Museum' ad is simply amazing. Joystiq says "we're not sure if we've ever been so moved by a Halo commercial". Ars Technica says it's "stunning". Be A Design Group says it goes way beyond marketing to gamers - It's "emotionally bigger, and almost too big at that" than Halo. I'd agree - with all of these. It's a very powerful piece, and one that has much wider appeal than a game-specific ad. 2OpGaming (thanks, Avateur) and GamesIndustry.biz both have informational articles about the piece itself, that go into greater detail than the simple page at Yahoo. There's also a nice description over at Xbox.com's Believe page - thanks again, Avateur. If you haven't watched this one yet, do so. And show it to your non-Halo-playing friends/family, and see what their reaction is. Update: Hmm... maybe it isn't ALL positive. Delta found this commentary at Canada's National Post - you can't please everyone. Update 2: GhaleonEB pointed out that the full press release (visible at Gamerscoreblog, Kotaku, 2OpGaming) contains a new campaign shot (local mirror). (Louis Wu 19:48:13 UTC)

Another Top 5 List
GameTrailers has put up a new GT Countdown: 'Top Five Reasons We Can't Wait to Play Halo 3'. Our forumgoers had a few things to say about some of the wording - but I can't really argue with the list. Thanks, chewpathingy. (Louis Wu 18:53:57 UTC)

I guess we can check him in a couple of weeks.
pete_the_duck went through the Omegathon footage at Gametrailers, and mapped out Guardian, the Halo 3 level. Pretty impressive work! (Louis Wu 19:54:01 UTC)

Halo 3 on Game Head
Game Head did some filming at the Massachusetts Projekt Revolution event in late August - Halo 3 was played there, and the cameras were rolling. (Footage shown by itself seems to be taken straight from the Beta - but I don't know if that's what was playing in the background.) Thanks, chewpathingy. (Louis Wu 13:02:53 UTC)

Last shot at Machinima Europe
If you've made a Machinima film in the last year or so, and haven't submitted it to Machinima Europe, this is your last chance! All you need to do is fill out a form and give them a URL - that's it! No cash, no hard copy - you can work out trailers and stuff later. Get your work in there! The deadline's tomorrow, the 8th. (Louis Wu 12:51:50 UTC)

Trinity Trailer
The Praetoria Guard has released a trailer for Trinity, an upcoming machinima series. There is, in fact, an entire website devoted to the series. Swing by, read about it, and then download the trailer from the Downloads page - I have to say, it looks promising! (Louis Wu 16:01:58 UTC)

Halo 3 Korea Promotion Part 2 (of 6)
Wolverine Monkey noticed that the second (of 6) Korean Halo 3 promo pieces is now out (thanks to Kotaku for the original heads-up) - it's truly surreal, but very worth watching. Go look. (Louis Wu 19:23:18 UTC)

New Omegathon vids at GT
MasterChief2829 pointed out 3 new films from the PAX Omegathon competition last night - all are available for streaming or download, in WMP9 or QuickTime, in SD or HD, over at GameTrailers. Lots of good stuff to see! (Louis Wu 22:39:28 UTC)

Combat, Part 1
A high-quality version of the second Neill Blomkamp/WETA short is now online at halo3.msn.com - it'll be up on Marketplace tomorrow. Not only is this not shakeycam, but it actually ends properly - absolutely worth the watch. Thanks, Red_Breast. (According to black asgard, it's available on GameVideos, as well. Might be a better choice for those who want a downloadable QT version - though the GV version is 640x360, vs 832x480 for the msn version.) Update 2: Google News tells me it's at GameTrailers, too. WMV is even 720p. (Louis Wu 20:13:48 UTC)

Wow, bizarre. You can make your own Halo 3 Mashup by combining clips from released trailers - and there's also a link to enter a Halo 3 gear sweepstakes (17 or over, US resident). Swing by Halo3.msn.com for more details. (Louis Wu 11:44:59 UTC)

The Invasion Trailer Contest
Adam Kovic let us know that Machinima.com is running another contest - this one requires that you put together a machinima version of the official "Invasion" movie trailer using supplied audio and graphics, mixed with your own game footage. As of right now, there are two submissions (one using the Sims, the other using modeled footage) - the field's wide open, and the grand prize is a cool $1000. You've got until September 3 - get cracking! Halo seems like a perfect vehicle.

Halo Maps releases Church - and a lot more
A couple of weeks ago, we pointed out a trailer for Church, a Halo CE map that looked pretty impressive. It's been released - swing by HaloMaps.org to download it. (While you're there, take some time and look around; over 100 maps and almost 70 modified levels have been added to the archives in July and August alone, with more than 170 tutorials and assets for mapmaking.)

Mile Wide Club.
Today's One One Se7en takes a look at a Halo 3 change to the Brutes, as shown in the E3 trailer. Here's hoping some of those brutes can FIND that Stuntmutt character and give him what he deserves for the pun. (As for the rest of the news for today - I'm POSITIVE there's material in the forum that should be front-paged... but I'm indisposed for the next 8-10 hours. It's gonna have to wait. Sorry.)

2160 AD Trailer
ODST Epsilon stopped by our forum recently to point out a trailer for a new machinima series, '2160 AD'. It focuses on a section of Halo canon that's only been mentioned a little bit - they're trying to stay true to the info that's out there, while still making an entertaining movie. The trailer suggests they've got an interesting project on their hands. If you'd rather watch it on YouTube than via the download link he put in to his post, you can do that. (Louis Wu 06:24:11 UTC)

Halo 2-D trailer
Sam sent us a trailer for Halo 2-D, a new project he's undertaking. He needs help getting renders for the full product; if you watch the trailer (which looks pretty intriguing), and want to help, send him some email. The trailer can be downloaded in WMP9 format (3.5 mb) or QuickTime format (3.7 mb). (Louis Wu 22:05:32 UTC)

Halo 3 Game Fuel TV Ad
ActiveCamoElite noticed a mention of an upcoming Game Fuel TV ad, looking like it might feature footage from the Halo 3 Announcement trailer, on the Game Fuel website. Keep your eyes peeled! (Louis Wu 12:09:12 UTC)

Director vs. Halo 3
Apparently, there was (is?) an Xbox 360 Soundtrack Competition - and the Irish band Director has entered it with a song set to video of the Halo 3 Announcement Trailer. Nice work! Thanks, MasterChief2829. (Louis Wu 14:29:42 UTC)

Amsterdam Press Interviews at Gamersyde
Gamersyde posted a video containing group interviews done in Amsterdam with Frankie and Sketch, on a wide variety of subjects - it's 112 mb, and covers a lot of subjects - go grab a copy! Lots of people told us - the first email I saw came from Dolbex. Update: this film is now available in streaming format at GameTrailers.com, as well - thanks, Fonz. (Louis Wu 14:36:54 UTC)

Fathom (A Taste)
On July 16, we put up an odd picture. Two days later, we did it again. (Different picture.) Well, they were both teasers for Fathom, a new Machinima project from some heavy hitters in the machinima community - SodaGod, BlackouTT, Jamie98s, FantasyCubed. You can find a variety of download links in the HaloGrid announce thread. I've also encoded a local QT version, 30 mb, that's not on that page (yet). BlackouTT says this isn't a trailer - but I'm not sure what else you'd call it; it sets up the series. Maybe a prologue? Mysterious, with great filming, great audio, great effects - very well done piece of work. Go watch it. (Louis Wu 14:22:46 UTC)

Halo has a few cinematic moments, says GS
Gamespy has posted a Top 25 Video Game Cinematic Moments article - theHalo Wars trailer came in 25th, the Halo E3 2000 demo nabbed 22nd, the Halo 2 'Riding the Pickle' cutscene fell in at 19th, and the Halo 3 CG commercial was at 17th. Nothing above that, unfortunately. Thanks, Stephen Edgar. Update: Morpheus points out that we already covered this, 3 months ago. Oops! (Louis Wu 13:06:19 UTC)

Calling For Back Up.
One of the scenes we caught of glimpse of in the recent Halo 3 E3 Trailer was of Cortana, collapsing in front of the Chief. Luckily, the Chief isn't quite as clueless as the hero of One One Se7en... (Louis Wu 19:55:39 UTC)
