It’ll All Make Sense By Friday
One One Se7en starts another series – though I doubt the timing is accurate. Hold on tight, boys and girls… this one’s gonna get ugly.

1 percent Comedy 99 percent Cheese
Keyes and his insecurities continue to be the focus of Halo: Resolution – check it out. Incidentally, Fuzzy asked that a public statement be made about Resolution sprites; they’re not for distribution. He doesn’t mean any offense by it, but he’d rather people stopped asking him for them, because he’s not planning on distributing them.…

Bogus Screenshot Alert
We got mail this morning from Strato99, pointing out a bunch of purported Halo 2 screens. (The originals were housed on some student webspace in Sweden, but Strato said he found them in a forum somewhere.) These have been confirmed to be FAKES – please, if you see them around the web, don’t perpetuate the…

AotCR – in Multiplayer.
Wow. Eclipse points out that Monoxide has posted to the Gearbox forums that ViperNeo has worked out some of the problems in porting AotCR to multiplayer – and it might even be out, as a mod, in the next week or so. Won’t THAT be a blast!

Links, links, and more links
Wow. In the last month or so, a lot of links have been forwarded to us about Halo-related websites out there. I THINK I’ve culled all of them from our mail – but I might have missed one or two; apologies if that’s true. Forums: Covenant Grounds (Halo forum) [MSM]Gearbox (HPC Clan forum) Clan sites:…

Halo for cash in north Florida
ORACLE writes to point out a continuous Halo tourney in Pace, Florida (near Pensacola). Every Friday night at 6 pm, Homefield Sports and Games hosts a tourney; entry is $10, first place gets 40% of the take, second place gets 10%. (I suppose that means the house gets the other 50%.) He provided an address…

Banshee Handling III
vector40 has posted the third segment of his ongoing series of articles on Banshee stategies – this one’s entitled ‘Applying Reality’. It focuses on the nitty gritty stuff – less abstract, more ‘I don’t care if it’s pretty, I just want to kill him’ stuff. It’s available at Subnova and Rampancy.net as well as the…

Best Buy Bundle – now cheaper
Back in November, we reported about a bundle being marketed by Best Buy – a controller and a DVD with Halo material on it. At the time, it was $19.99. (The DVD contained no ‘new’ material – but it did contain a hi-res version of the ‘Inside the Xbox’ documentary that showed at X03 last…

Tina Leyk, Halo Artiste Extraordinaire
A couple of days ago, we got an email from Tim Leyk, who wanted to point out a Halo fan comic created by his sister, Tina Leyk. I visited the site, and was blown away by what I found – she’s a fantasy/furry artist, and Fur-lo (her Halo comic) incorporates furry art with Halo themes…
