Energy: The Series (Trailer, plus info)

Halo Outkastz Episode 3
Deekor stopped by to point out Halo Outkastz Episode 3 – uniform color changes, mystery boxes, and Spartan answering machines. Sound’s a bit odd – it seems like all the voices are in a single channel (which made it really hard to hear some of the dialogue on my system), but it’s nothing you can’t…

It’s A Legitimate Strategy

by
XyonsWrath has an interesting suggestion for all those players like me who spend their time in Halo 2 running around like chickens with their heads cut off, waiting for the next player to come along and kill them while trying to ineffectually pepper targets with SMG fire. That suggestion is: pick a nice spot and…
