What do you do when you’re all out of puns? Well, bathroom humor is always a possibility. Check out today’s One One Se7en.(Louis Wu 12:06:08 UTC)

Over at MLGPro.com, there’s an analysis of the top seeds on the Pro (and semi-pro) Halo circuit, as they gear up for MLG Chicago in a week. Nice writeup, though I’d have liked to see at least a mention of the Intel Summer Championships played recently; several of the top teams competed there. (Yeah, I…

Pinkuh posted an image showing what she thinks the MC might look like without his armor. It’s not done, but there’s enough there for some serious commentary. It’s been added to her Gallery page here (in the unfinished section).(Louis Wu 11:48:51 UTC)

Finn woke up from a nap long enough to gather up a few of the more interesting tidbits to come to light over the past couple of weeks; swing by the Halo Story page for more details!(Louis Wu 11:07:57 UTC)

Matt Barham sent along a link to ‘The Pedestrian’, a 20-minute-long vid that served as an english project; he and some classmates attempt to bring Ray Bradbury’s story ‘The Pedestrian’ to life. They crammed 14 hours of filming and editing into a single weekend, and the end result is both funny and entertaining. (Not all…

AnubisUK stopped by our forum to point out that the trailer for Broken Console’s Conquest Part 2 is now available – swing by their website to grab a copy (10 or 15 mb, depending on size, in both WMP9 and QT). Part 1 was a pretty impressive piece of work, and the trailer for Part…

Captain Spark gathered another bunch of Brute snippets for the Dialogue Databank; they’re also downloadable on his website. Those guys are arrogant…(Louis Wu 17:08:42 UTC)

RidgyMrPeepers, of 33 Degrees Films (the website’s not resolving for me yet) submitted ‘Whammy Kablammy: Explosive Barrel Montage’ to the MPRRS, and they said ‘release it’. Fusion cores, painstakingly nudged into lines, are used to blow up hogs, people, whatever. Nice patterns! Should appeal to the ‘I love to blow stuff up’ bit in most…

Matt “Deuce” Andoos sent us a note about some commercials he’s seeing on the Armed Forces Network in Spain; the US Military is using pieces from the Halo and Halo 2 soundtracks as background music for commercials showcasing various jobs. It’s certainly inspirational!(Louis Wu 10:07:30 UTC)

Z pointed out a new Montage Contest over at Halo3Forum.com; total prize money stands at $1500, with at LEAST $700 going to the number one spot. Get to work!(Louis Wu 10:02:32 UTC)

Ducain, the man behind High Impact Halo, the premier Halo 2 tricking site on the web, has been interviewed over at Bungie.net; go see what got him started with Halo! (The questions are quite a bit more serious than the last few spotlights… I think KP is scared of Ducain.)(Louis Wu 22:27:21 UTC)

Flesh Puppet and Gay-Z put together a new Halo 2 rap; swing by their website for more details, or download it from us (6.6 mb, mp3 format). Definitely NSFW – this one needs a strong language warning.(Louis Wu 20:37:48 UTC)
