ESRB Notice
Archie Gates is at it again - if you visit his MySpace page, you'll find his newest audio creation, 'ESRB Notice'; it's streamable for free, or downloadable for a buck. Anyone who has spent ANY time on Xbox Live playing Halo 2 will relate - instantly. Hilarious stuff! (Louis Wu 14:36:13 UTC)

Achievement Unlocked
Archie Gates, the guy behind the Needler songs, has kicked off a new project; he's writing songs about games, and the first one out of the box is called 'Achievement Unlocked'. It's not really Halo-related, but most Halo players will be able to relate - it's pretty darned funny! It's available for free, streaming off his MySpace webpage - but if you, like me, have trouble with the stuttering that comes from MySpace streams, it's downloadable, in high-quality MP3 format, for just a buck. Check it out! Chaos Tangent mentioned it on our forum before I had a chance to post it here... (Louis Wu 05:36:24 UTC)

Beautiful Needler - the Video
A year ago, Archie Gates started creating Needler songs over at Gamespot. (Unfortunately, his profile is now private, so I can't link you there.) He's since created 4 (search our news) - and just recently, imSuck, of HollywoodHalo, submitted 'Beautiful Needler', a music video based on the first Needler song, to the MPRRS. The reviewers loved it. Go grab a copy. WMP9 version is 43.2 mb, QuickTime version is 41.9 mb. Awesome, classic song, perfectly synched to Halo action. Christina would be proud. (Well, okay, maybe not - maybe she'd be like 'OMGWTF', but she SHOULD be proud.) (Louis Wu 12:43:04 UTC)

Pinker Than A Baby's Bum
You might remember Archie Gates - he's a Gamespot user who has created a number of songs dedicated to the beauty and grace of the Needler. He's done it again - a couple of days ago, he posted Needler Song 4, 'Don't Know Why (It's My Favorite Gun)'. Norah Jones might take issue with it... but everyone else should find it hilarious. And the bit at the end... is brilliant. You can grab a copy off our server (3.5 mb)... listen and enjoy. Thanks to Atsumi for noticing this! (Louis Wu 02:52:53 UTC)

The Needler Walk
Back in April, ArchieGates (a Gamespot user) released a pair of Needler songs; they're pretty funny stuff. Looks like a couple of weeks ago, he released song number 3 - you can grab a copy off our server (2.4 mb). Funny stuff! Thanks to bighairyape for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 19:12:42 UTC)

The Needler Songs
A week ago, Bonekin visited our forum with a link to a hilarious sendup of a Christina Aguilera song, called 'Beautiful Needler'. Took a little while to track down the author... but today, unableelephant found the Gamespot journal of Archie Gates, the song's creator - and it turns out there isn't just one, but TWO Needler songs. The second one is a takeoff of Simon and Garfunkel's Sound of Silence, and it's fantastic! We've gotten permission to host both; you can find them here
- Beautiful Needler (2.8 mb, mp3)
- Sound of Needler (2.5 mb, mp3)
The ending of Sound of Needler is laugh-out-loud funny. Go listen! (Louis Wu 18:09:55 UTC)
