All she needs is a shotgun.
KP continues with his IM interviews of community members – this time, he snagged Zoom Demon, of the Cayote Cavegirls, for a pleasant little monitor-side chat over sandwiches and rice and orange chicken. You may think that KP picked Zoom Demon just because she was a hawt chik – but it’s not true. There are…

GiA – Design your own Halo 3 Vehicle/Weapon
Nathan Gibson wrote to let us know that Games in Action is having a competition allowing members to submit designs for Halo 3 Weapons/Vehicles.

Tapped into the perfect market
Owm pointed out a great article about the Rooster Teeth boys over at the Escapist – it’s Halo-related in that it discusses Red vs Blue, but it’s great writing in any case. Go read.(Louis Wu 21:15:31 UTC)

Elite vs Elite Eps 1, 2, 3
Wow. eternalscrappy submitted three short films to the MPRRS yesterday – Elite vs Elite 1, 2, and 3 – and all 3 passed, in short order. They’re in the style of Spy vs Spy (if you grew up reading Mad Magazine), and they’re pretty funny. Short and sweet – if they’re not your style, we…

RT: License to Eat
Our office is like the Bermuda Triangle for food. As soon as you take your eyes off of it, it disappears, never to be seen again. All that’s left is an empty wrapper, and a faint cloud of dust. No matter where I try to hide it, it’s gone within minutes;…

Halo 3 Demo Rumor Gets Annoying
There’s a rumor floating around that a Halo 3 Demo will be coming out on Xbox Live. (This time, Horus let us know on our forum.) We hate rumors, generally; 99% of the time, they’re false, and they always increase the amount of correspondence we get. There’s nothing that suggests that this one is any…

Bungie.net Community Art Spotlight
Saw a note over at Bungie.net that they’re going to start highlighting community artwork. This isn’t supposed to eat into existing art outlets around the community; if you’re highlighting your wares on a specific website already (like this one), this should be considered a bonus, not a replacement. Give the thread a read – and…

Submit Stuff for Episode 83: The Halo 3 Show!
In Halo 3 it should say “Toasty” when we get a headshot with the sniper! Do you want Dan Forden, the sound designer from Mortal Kombat to yell “Toasty” at the bottom corner of the screen when you get a head shot with the sniper? Got a specific idea for a game type, weapon, gameplay…
