Halo 3 Mythic Walkthrough – Floodgate
Daniel ‘Tyrant’ Morris’ Solo Legendary All Skulls On tutorial continues with Floodgate, probably the easiest level in the game at this difficulty. That said, there are still nuances that will get you killed if you don’t pay attention – so watch his vids, and read his text, for the most secure path through!(Louis Wu 15:09:16…

Splazed.
Wow. urk, over at Bungie, found a ‘Splasertage’ from a guy who’s got more than 18,000 spartan laser kills under his belt. According to Halo3.junk.ws, I’ve only got a few thousand kills more than that… with EVERY weapon, combined. (This one really benefits from the higher-quality YouTube version… and the writeup there says 21,000 kills,…

A Drawn-on Life
Heh – Kotaku has a story about Matt ‘mothergoat’ Cox, who has produced a rather large body of work in the Halo fan community and is now a lead designer at 5TH Cell. Apparently, he went on vacation recently, and while he was gone, his coworkers pranked him by wrapping his entire desk in brown…

TTL Tuesday
XerxdeeJ stopped by because it’s TTL Tuesday – he comes bearing news of a pretty cool little egg in the Halo 3: Recon trailer (maybe), and a great highlight reel put together by TTL Hoovaloov, showing off some of the dumbest (and funnest) stuff that can happen with vehicles in Halo 3. (Mostly. There’s an…

It’s easier to build a base with existing planets.
Heh – prescient, or just lucky? NiTrOuS 343 ran across an article at Yahoo News that discusses the Epsilon Eridanus system… and how scientists think they’ve found evidence of a planetary system there. Reach just got more feasible!(Louis Wu 14:59:52 UTC)

Pwning Cancer
The Fight Like a Girl tourney that dominated our front page’s sidebar for a few weeks went off this weekend without a hitch (that I know of) – they raised almost $4000 for worthy causes, and a lot of people got the chance to play against Bungie employees in 2v2 competitions. One of these was…

Indestructible
We got word of ‘Indestructible’, a Halo music vid set to music from Disturbed done by Luck0, of HaloGrid. You can watch it on YouTube, or discuss it on the HaloGrid forum. Really nice camerawork, and great attention to detail – this one really works! Thanks, Jordan Pimentel.(Louis Wu 23:51:46 UTC)

A peek behind the curtain
A Bungie artist, who shall remain nameless (beyond his rather vague gamertag), replied to a whole series of questions over at Bungie.net (none of which really had anything to do with art). His answers are pretty interesting… but it’s possible that the information he provided was presented in a way that might make things hard…
