    A couple of months ago, we mentioned the World Series of Video Games, a new tournament featuring a number of games, including Halo 2. Bungie has just interviewed Nick Shellhaas, one of their tournament directors, about the organization and events… go read for more details. Thanks to Hookedonhalo for the heads-up.(Louis Wu 09:16:48 UTC)

  • 1337 LIFE Kicks Off

    in

    An interesting new series has begun – NutsaQer stopped by our forum to let people know about 1337 LIFE, a game show in which four players compete for the ultimate prize of an Xbox 360. The ‘show’ will be at least 12 challenges long – this episode has 1 challenge in it, but in theory…

  • War Series Ep 2

    Recently, Purebredbrute completed War Series ‘Episode 2: Battle for Beaver Creek’ – and it’s a great piece of work. Wonderful cinematics, solid storyline and fantastic action sequences… this one’s worth watching. They’re having a bit of trouble with hosting – so we’re helping out. You can grab the 10-plus minute long piece in either WMP9…

  • RT: Anime Expo!

    It seems like lately every post I make to the front page is about a convention. I think I need to change that….I’ll wait till after this post though. May I have the attention of people who live in the state of “Southern California”. This…

  • Halo 3 Cover Art Contest Results

    Over at HaloPlanet today, they’ve announced the results of their Halo 3 Cover Art Contest. Bungie is not affiliated with this contest and has nothing to do with the selection of the winners nor will we use their art for the cover. Congrats to the four winners!

  • The Naked Truth.

    Sometimes it’s funny – Stuntmutt writes a One One Se7en a week or two before its release date, and in the interim the same joke is covered by someone else. Such an anomaly happened today – Stuntmutt’s punchline was usurped by Monday’s Sore Thumbs Online. We’re not in this business to make Stunt look good,…

    in

    Halo Planet’s Halo 3 Cover Contest has been over for a bit, and today they’ve announced the winners. 200 entries, 4 winners, with a bunch of Honorary Mentions to come soon. (Heh – are you as amused as I am that the overall winner is (or shares a name with) the head content monkey at…

  • Colors of the Universe

    in

    DMDyet discusses some interesting patterns you may or may not have noticed in the coloring scheme of Halo – in this post, there’s even a visual chart. Does this mean the Prophets are somehow separate from the rest of the Covenant? (If you aren’t a frequent reader of our forum, you might have missed his…
