MLG has put up an article showing the winners from last weekend's National Championships - lots o' cash! Check it out. Thanks, 3Suns.
Drive-Thru
Published by Louis Wu February 28th, 2006 in HBO
Dang, meant to get to this yesterday, forgot. Omg A Fish submitted 'Drive-Thru', a Tenacious D skit set to Halo, to the MPRRS - and it would have passed, except for one reviewer (who didn't even really seem to dislike it, but gave it a dismal score anyway). It's a tiny film (just over 6 mb), and pretty funny, and Omg A Fish got hosting for the WMP9 version at a few different places... so I'm putting up a QuickTime version for those who need/want it. (If you swing by the Halo2Forum.com thread for this movie, you'll find a ton of people who downgrade it because 'it sounds really close to Jack Black'. It is Jack Black; the soundtrack is right off the album. Only the visuals are Halo-related.)

Published by Louis Wu February 28th, 2006 in HBO
Ross Mills found a UNSC Marine armor set for sale on eBay(uk). It's not completely finished - but a bunch of it is. (I'm wondering what happened to the model's arm...) Four days left, nobody's bid yet.

Believe it or not, Mr. Seropian is actually working on a new reality TV show for FOX broadcasting! I'm very very interested to see how this gets pulled off....
Halo used in a study on stupid people
Published by Louis Wu February 28th, 2006 in HBO
sonik son sent us a link that's pretty darned tangential to Halo... but Halo IS involved, so here you go. Over at MarginalRevolution.com, there's a blog entry about a study that compared higher prices with free shipping vs lower prices with expensive shipping to see which attracted buyers faster. (Turns out we're stupid, and will pay $5 + $6 shipping more quickly than we'll pay $10 + $0 shipping.) Halo was one of the items used in the eBay sellathon. (See? I told you it was tangential.)
H2O Federation Kicks Off
Published by Louis Wu February 28th, 2006 in HBO
Swing by the website of the Professional Gamers League of America to read about the new H2O Federation. Instead of a series of (relatively) unrelated tournaments, they're setting up a league, similar to the NFL, where teams will compete all season long. It was only a matter of time...
