James Falcon let us know that he’s finished up his glove plates and started on the fusion pack for his armor – you can find the new pics on his progress page. He also told us that future pics will be going to his personal blog at the 405th Mjolnir Armor forum – you’ll need…

Awesomesauce. kilaMOMjaro let us know about the Gaming4Others charity tournament – money raised will go to Child’s Play, a charity set up by Penny Arcade a few years ago to bring video games, toys, and movies to sick kids. They’re running two ladders – one for GRAW2, the other for Halo 3. It’s a 4v4…

The Cyberathlete Professional League has released details about their million-dollar Halo 3 tournament coming up in December – check out the payout schedule. (Most Halo 3 tourneys only have cash prizes for the top few teams – I’ve rarely seen money for anyone below 8th place. Even the 64th-place team goes home with $2500 at…

Heh. Dark Helmet found a great song at Break.com – these folks went to great lengths to make a funny video, go watch it.(Louis Wu 10:52:50 UTC)

Saber-Scorpion, best known for his amazing Lego creations, put together a Halo comic that ties together Halo 3 with Toy Story. (This contains Halo 3 spoilers; don’t follow the link to the comic unless you’ve finished the game.) Pretty funny! Thanks, GoldenElite0.(Louis Wu 10:52:03 UTC)

grantix is working on a 2-D computer game called Hellraiser – Halo sprites, blended plot. A screenshot is included in the forum post.(Louis Wu 10:48:59 UTC)

Schedonnardus pointed out a new service at Facebook – you can add your Halo 3 Service Record to your profile. Funky!(Louis Wu 10:48:27 UTC)

mjolnir15 noticed an article on Halo 3 eggs at GamesRadar; they’ve been culled from around the net, and some aren’t really eggs at all… but it’s a nice collection. (Louis Wu 10:41:58 UTC)

There’s a great article at AiGameDev.com that summarizes the artificial intelligence lessons Bungie learned (and taught) from the Halo series, in the context of making a better video game. It’s really interesting to see how things have evolved; a great example is number 13:”Early versions of Halo’s AI had a short pause between seeing you…

s_tygard55 was the first to point out an article suggesting that Microsoft and Peter Jackson might be back at trying to find funding to continue work on the Halo movie. (The one he found is at GamesRadar.) There’s a discussion about this on our forum – MasterChief2829 noticed an article at Computer and Video Games,…

Zukan has released the original music he did for the Innocent Minds film (we mentioned it back in August). You can grab the music from a post on the GamingTV forum – but you’ll have to be registered to see it. Five tracks (two are bonus). Thanks, trigger119. Update: trigger119 has fixed it so that…

Mukelo wanted to remind everyone that the contest at Invalid Mob Gaming for best File Share clip (we mentioned it a couple of weeks ago) is over tomorrow – you’ve still got time, and there are only 18 entries so far! Get your clip in, and you’ve got a shot at a 1-month XBL Gold…

Almost didn’t make the day’s cutoff… but the two cutscenes from Floodgate are now posted in our Halo 3 Cutscene Library. The final scene is pretty long…(Louis Wu 22:29:54 UTC)

Last week, we mentioned a rumor that seemingly built itself out of nothing – Stuntmutt takes it all one step further, in today’s One One Se7en.(Louis Wu 17:38:59 UTC)

Elnea has gone a bit overboard; Episode 98.2 of her Halo Action Figure Theater (yes, she’s trying to save the good stuff for ep 100, which means we might see a 98.74 one day) involves not just Halo action figures, not just cans of cat food, not just hardware like a lightbox… but PUDDING. Vanilla…
