Month: October 2007

For those of you not too busy playing the new Infection playlist on Xbox Live, the cutscenes for The Covenant (all six of them) are now live in the HBO Halo 3 Cutscene Library. For what it’s worth – this is going to continue to grow after the final level is posted; some of the…

The second half of GameTap’s interview with Joe Staten (the first half was here) is now online – this one ranges from Ghosts of Onyx to Halo 2 to Halo 3 (it contains major ending spoilers for Halo 3, so if you haven’t played it, beware), and has a really sizeable amount of information. Joe…

Stuntmutt has a holiday-themed One One Se7en for you today – for those keeping track, it has a Halo spoiler in it. (If you’re reading One One Se7en, and you’ve never played ANY of the Halo games, but you PLAN to… well, I’m not sure we should be protecting you from spoilers, but…)(Louis Wu 18:17:53…

This is just… wrong.(Louis Wu 16:58:59 UTC)

Z let us know about The Wicked Ending, a huge (270 mb, 14 minutes long) Halo 3 montage from Hysteria and Eli; it’s full of multikills (Killtrocities and up), lots of FFA against MLG pros, and pretty nice editing to boot. If you’ve been missing some Halo 2 montage action, check this out.(Louis Wu 16:57:31…

Elnea, shameless in her misuse of a numbering system that wasn’t designed for her ramblings, gives us Halo Action Figure Theater 98.74: Last Year’s Transport. Fantastic use of props… (Louis Wu 14:33:22 UTC)

Wow, nice. SodaGod has started a Halo news show over at Machinima.com; yes, these have been done before, but not with audio this good, or with SG’s whacky brand of humor. The video information listed is pretty much entirely wrong; the downloaded video is 48 mb, not 37, and the running time is 5 minutes,…

Wow, nice work – KidWitPotential, over at Bungie.net, recreated the original Halo Combat Evolved box art using Halo 3, with a friend – and then they did the Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack art. If the screenshots disappear, we have local copies (Halo CE | Multiplayer Map Pack). Thanks, gijake.(Louis Wu 10:02:02 UTC)

Awesome – Walshicus noticed some tombstones on Valhalla, apparently tied to the date today (it is Halloween, after all) – in case the FileShare links he posted disappear, we’ve downloaded local copies (one | two). RVideo also took a pic.(Louis Wu 09:48:08 UTC)

Today’s update for the Halo 3 Cutscene Library contains the cutscenes from the level ‘The Ark’ – but it also contains a cleaned-up version of the closing cutscene for ‘The Storm’. A number of people noticed that there was overlapping music in the first version we uploaded, so Cody kindly went back and re-recorded the…

ninjakilpirate let us know about HaloUnofficial.com, which has leaderboards for the Campaign meta-game scores. Submit your scores, and see where you stand! (Louis Wu 22:38:55 UTC)

This is actually quite cool – The More Deluded created a sculpture of the Arbiter… in wire. Artistic!(Louis Wu 22:26:26 UTC)

Devrous stopped by for the first time in a while – looks like he had a pretty rough summer! He’s back on track with his Freespace 2: Halo total conversion, and has a new website online. Take a look!(Louis Wu 22:17:44 UTC)

Zeouterlimits pointed out yet ANOTHER Staten interview – this time at 1UP. Short – but solid!(Louis Wu 20:49:15 UTC)

ZZoMBiE13 has a new funni for you today, over at Another Halo Comic Strip – a mystery of the ages… solved.(Louis Wu 18:26:38 UTC)
