Month: January 2004

Richard White Jr sent us some information about the 2004 toy lineup from JoyRide, straight from its distributor (he’s a retailer). We have no way of confirming this information right now – but it seemed reasonable… It’s too big for a front-page news post, so you can find the list in our MIscellaneous section.

It took a little while, but the kinks have been worked out – and HBO is very proud to announce the presence of two more HBO Halo PC dedicated servers! Thanks to Homelan, those looking for the somewhat different flavor of gameplay on the HBO servers (no-shields BC Shotties, anyone?) can find what they crave…

Today we have another Miniature Halo for you from SESpider… the plot thickens. So much so, in fact, that he needs your help in advancing it.

There’s a new collection of letters. Argh.

The community has been abuzz with Bungie’s newly released title and for those who have asking for help, your prayers have been answered.Walkthrough!

Obsidian CZ writes to point out a new build of a Halo 2 mod that’s been under development for a while by NiTrOuSoXiDe; it brings a gravity gun, a covenant sniper, SMG, faster warthog, and a powerful plasma cannon (turret) to the game. You can grab a copy from this thread in the Gearbox forums.…

Halo: Resolution says… whoa.

(GT)Juggler has posted GT6 – It’s a Boy!, the newest in a series of tricks/glitches films. This one is full of really early stunts; grabbing the banshees on AotCR, color glitches, unlimited ammo… I felt like a younger man, watching it. (Well, okay, only a couple of years younger, but…) It’s a 33.4 mb 3ivx-encoded…

IXIGhandiIXI points out that over at 343gs.com, there’s a new wallpaper in the Downloads section (I find it to be a pretty impressive picture, though I doubt I could ever actually use it as a desktop), and a new Art section has opened up (though only one of the two images shown is actually viewable).…

Wow, I’m not doing very well; I managed to forget yesterday’s Guest One One Se7en strip. Rather than simply skip it, I’m posting it anyway – along with today’s main strip, from Stuntmutt. Yesterday’s, ‘Fr@med’, was Guest number 77, and was created by Someone2die… while today’s, entitled ‘Insult to Injury’, might explain why the MC…

Finally, after dozens of man-years in development, the long-secret title from Bungie has been revealed! Behold, the Quest for the Crown!Yes, this is a spoof!

For those looking for a decent price on Halo PC, Best Buy currently has it on sale for $39.99; about $10 off its regular price. (Thanks, Opie.)

Battleground: Halo has posted an interview with PTM, of Halo Online. And stuff.

new1nab113 stopped by our forum to mention a comic he’s created called Parasite. I keep remembering some advice my mother gave me…

A couple of movies folks asked us to tell you about: First, a movie that MereCatfish wanted us to announce a couple of weeks ago; we managed to miss the email. It’s called ‘Fun, Yet Useless’, and it’s a Halo PC glitch/stunt film – title pretty much covers it. It’s hosted by nukedude in WMP9…

Today’s Calvin and Halo strip was mentioned on our forum, sort of, last week. Having young children myself, I hardly find this funny. In fact, I may have to sue Warbow for the return of this twitch in my eye…
