Morpheus noticed a Top 25 Enemies of All Time list at Game Daily. If I specified WHICH enemy from the Halo series made the list, I’d have to put a spoiler tag on this newspost. (Louis Wu 12:44:29 UTC)

El Mayimbe has posted the third piece of concept art by Kasra Farahani for the Fall of Reach Movie project written up by Stuart Beattie – I’m having trouble placing the scene that this image portrays… but it’s an interesting pic. Check it out!(Louis Wu 22:24:30 UTC)

J23 pointed out Screw Attack’s Halo 1 and 2 in 60 Seconds – language is a little blue, but it’s a nice fast summary of the first two games. If you’re easily offended, don’t watch.(Louis Wu 18:50:22 UTC)

Machinima.com/UK had a music video contest – put one of two Jonathan Coulton songs (Bacteria, Todd the T1000) to music, using any game you want, win goodies. The winners were filmed with World of Warcraft and GTA: San Andreas – but Halo was used for fully half of the entries – and I really liked…

A week ago, we mentioned link4044’s Legendary Crest – it had been put up on eBay for a short time, but pulled because of a misunderstanding. He’s put another one up after clearing up the problem – you’ve got about four and a half days to make up your mind. Again – if I had…

Wow. The Master Chief and Grunts Silver Statue auction ended last night – and the final price jumped $1300 in the last 40 seconds, leading to a final sales price of $3,050. The other three auctions are still going – Master Chief and Arbiter ends Wednesday night (it’s at $1669.69), Master Chief and Flood ends…

It’s Monday, so it’s time for another episode of Reclaimer – TTL Demag0gue has released Reclaimer 78, which might confuse you unless you’ve been following very closely. (Louis Wu 13:33:22 UTC)

DigitalPh33r has released Part 3 of his Guide to Making Halo 3 Machinima – it covers scriptwriting, building sets, and creating character models, and runs a bit over 8 minutes. Thanks to Exanubisleader for the heads-up.(Louis Wu 13:30:08 UTC)

Not sure how long this deal is going to last, but Darknesshasfallen let us know that Spawn.com is selling the ComicCon Exclusive action figures (the Hellspartan and the CQB Active Camo) as a pair, for as long as supplies last. These were only available at the San Diego ComicCon last month – so folks assumed…

Gryphonosiris found a preorder page for 18″ articulated Master Chief Replicas (no word on the manufacturer) at Urban Collector. Pretty nice-looking, from the single preview shot – these should be available in a couple of months. (Louis Wu 13:18:13 UTC)

Rare released a new parody of the Believe Campaign, using Viva Piñata (the last one was mentioned a couple of weeks ago) – really nice work! Thanks to RotaJota for the heads-up – he found it at Joystiq. (Louis Wu 13:14:54 UTC)
