M Squared.
Heh – Maluu and MrOllie are back to their old Trick-Jumping ways, with a JumpTactics entry into the MLG Pro Film Festival Contest. It’s short, and it makes extensive use of tweaked damage settings… but it’s beautiful. Go watch. Thanks to RVideo for the heads-up.(Louis Wu 14:33:17 UTC)

If you’re thinking “yeah, so?” read the explanation of how this came about in grumpy’s post. That’s some pretty serious…

The third map in the Legendary DLC pack has been announced over on Bungie.net – Blackout is a straight-up remake of Lockout.
