Month: November 1999

Dirk Adam, Content Director of BU Online (gxp.de), sends us this answer about their pics. He apologizes for his english. 🙂 Thank you for asking first. Well, this is a difficult question, because for normal you may not copy that material to your website. Other sites that already have these pictures loaded might want to…

Synox mentions in Core forum post that the 12/99 issue of PC Action (german) magazine has a brand new Halo movie on its cover CD. Anyone want to upload it? Pax.

Kudos to Harry Al-Shakarchi for his translations of the text accompanying the GXP pictures. He sent in both the first Halo blurb (two days ago): “Take 2 sent us these 2 brand new pictures of Bungie’s Halo. Please note that these pics are not from a pre-rendered intro sequence, but from a running game.” and…

Having trouble finding those earlier Halo pics at GXP? Well here are the direct links to all four Halo pics: HALO1.JPG, HALO2.JPG, HALO3.JPG, and HALO4.JPG.

Take a break from analysing those new Halo pics and check out the Halo SETI team stats for the last 24 hours. Who’s crunching it Big Time?

An anonymous poster on our forums suggests that there might be a hint to Bungie’s viewing system for Halo in the bottom left corner of GXP’s HALO4.JPG. The first line looks like “First Person Camera”, the second could be “Rotating Camera”. Any image processors want to take a crack at this?

Frost announces Halothon Magazine. Content will be 75% Halo, 25% Marathon.

Thanks to Petri for pointing out on our forums that GXP has posted two new Halo screenshots. Yesterday Louis Wu hinted that there would be more. if you can’t load the pics from the main page try these direct links HALO3.JPG and HALO4.JPG.

Tobbe points out on our forums that a Swedish gaming site, fragzone.se, has a short blurb on Halo. My swedish is nonexistent, but it seems to be comparing Halo and Quake3, to Q3’s detriment…

GWDEMISE sends us a Halo Desktop Theme for Win95/98. If you just can’t get enough Halo, snag this. (1.6 megs, zipped.) Pax.

H.B.O. to adopt U.S. Naval Observatory standard Universal Time for future news reporting.

Heads up SETI marines we’re losing points again. Check the Halo SETI team 24 hours stats! for the tru7h!

Mojo says “Halam is back. Really. I swear.” It’s true. Go see for yourself.

As mentioned on our forums, MacDrugal re-reopens (?) his halo site, with a new name, and a new focus. Currently has an interesting analysis of the halo on it. Take a look!

A German subsidiary of Incite PC, GXP, has posted a pair of pretty amazing Halo pics. We don’t want to add these until we have permission, but if you can’t get to the German site (it seems to be perpetually down), you can find both images at Voodoo Extreme. They’re also available at hl.bungie.org, bungie.org’s…

“Halo-Net has jumped back to life and started up the promised clan” says Alan Stott.

Halo SETI 24 hours stats! We got ’em… you want ’em? Sign up for your tour of duty with the Halo SETI marines.

Helo SETI Team stats for the past 24 hours posted. 5 new members and one astoundingly prodigious cruncher still can’t make up for the theft perpetrated by the buggy SETI accounting. (Sorry about the delay in posting these… Wirehead’s more efficient than I am.)

MacDrugal notices some interesting details on the Halo Hologram. Artifacts of a 3D card, or cities? You decide. Pax.

Knight sends word that the Halo Network has instituted a Daily Halo Comic. Go take a look! Thanks, Knight.
