    highwaters, who let us know last week about a suit of Mjolnir armor he’s been building, posted a movie yesterday showing that armor in use around town. If you have trouble with the MySpace vid in that first post, you can find a YouTube link in this post. Good stuff!(Louis Wu 16:46:55 UTC)

  • Halo: War Journal ‘Last Dance’

    in

    zech ray found a decent piece of machinima linked from the Codex Series forums – it’s a trailer for Halo: War Journal ‘Last Dance’, and it’s hosted at YouTube. It tells the story of a heroic last stand by 300 Spartans against an overwhelming Covenant force. If you’ve got an extra 5 minutes this Saturday,…

  • How Babies are Made

    Over at the Red vs Blue Sponsors forum, there’s a new sponsors extra – How Babies are Made. It’s in Flash format, and it basically gives away the secret to how Tucker’s baby is filmed. (Hint – it’s WAY more low-tech than most people thought it was.) Pretty cool! Thanks to MffnMn for the heads-up.(Louis…

  • RT: Must See TV

    Today’s comic is posted below, and is all about the peculiarities of television preference. Also, if you are a sponsor, you might like to know we’ve posted a new RvB bonus video in the sponsor forum. Dog Pound

  • Planet Xbox 360 takes shots at MLG

    by

    in

    Planet Xbox 360 has an opinion piece about MLG, and whether or not they have what it takes to be ‘taken seriously’. Read it for yourself – but I have to say, and I’m saying this as an MLG outsider, some of the arguments used in the piece are silly. The author argues that watching…

    We got a note from Tim Dadabo, the voice of 343 Guilty Spark; he recently bought a new utility for his wife, and it gave him an idea for a product Microsoft could market. Imagine getting your house cleaned by 343 Guilty Suck… with Tim’s voice saying things like “MMMMMmmm Hmmmmmm Oh Hello! Please… let…

    As is usual on Fridays, the Bungie Weekly Update got posted last night – it’s a short one, with a little bit of info about XBL playlists (Team SWAT is making a comeback next month, unranked), a cool little bit of Halo 3 Alpha trivia, and a teaser for a new… SOMETHING. Hard to tell…

  • Bungie Weekly Update

    Nothing much to see this week, so move along if you’re expecting a huge revelation. Some good news about multiplayer matchmaking and a couple of interesting images. We’ll have more exciting stuff next week, but for now, on with the show.

  • Duke Nukem Forever screenshot in the wild?

    Is this the latest Duke Nukem Forever screenshot? 3D Realms president, George Broussard, says that the thumbnail-sized screenshot is an “in game shot.” I have to say that although it is small, the engine looks impressive. The lighting. The shading. The blur. DNF is the most famous “vaporware” to ever exist…or not exist. 3D Realms…

    A couple of weeks ago, Edge put their January 2007 article on Bungie online for all to read – and an enormous number of gaming news outlets jumped on a single quote from the piece – the one where Chris Butcher, expressing his disappointment with the gap between what he felt Halo 2 COULD have…

  • New Too Human Screenshot

    Ever since I read an article from one of Mintz’s old gaming magazines while I was in Iraq, I have been intrigued by “Too Human.” The main character is Baldur, who you might recognize from Norse mythology. If not, give him a wiki (aka “Baldr”). The game is quite lofty, announcing a trilogy a full…
