A wearable Scout helmet
As mentioned earlier, we had another batch of fun content from GhettoMole – not only did he send us a link to a custom-built Jackal, but he’s working on a wearable Scout helmet. Swing by this page for progress pictures! (Louis Wu 15:18:12 UTC)

Podtacular Final Audio Episode Delay
Just a heads up, we know the podtacular final audio show is late. But here’s the plan: It will be released in multiple parts, and all of it will be available by Sunday. This one has taken some serious work and some serious time. Thanks for your patience.

Them’s Some Expensive Halo Cars
Hawty McBloggy found what might be the most expensive Halo 3 Hot Wheels customs ever. $700 for a pair of vehicles, with a total of four hand-painted figures. I guess if you’re really, really rich and having trouble figuring out what to do with all that cash…(Louis Wu 12:42:57 UTC)

I dare you to jump in there. I dare you.
A fun little Forge experiment on Avalanche showed up in my Google Alerts box this morning – a few gravity lifts + Avalanche’s mancannons + lots and lots of plasma grenades = pretty patterns!(Louis Wu 12:30:28 UTC)

Par Avion
blackouTT let us know that he’s posted his entry for GamingTV’s Laughs for Cash competition – you can download it and decide what you think about it. Par Avion is a spoof of many other machinima projects, and follows the travels of a player in Matchmaking after he picks up a mysterious object. Very nicely…

Floaty Silence 4 – Climax of Boredom
Hellhawk announced Floaty Silence 4 – Climax of Boredom a couple of days ago, I decided to wait until I could watch it to announce it. I’m glad I did; it’s a pretty funny reenactment of the Crow’s Nest opening cutscene. Go watch it!(Louis Wu 12:24:41 UTC)

Legendary Panoramas
RVideo’s already put some time into Legendary panoramas – this post, and this one, both have gorgeous shots from outside Avalanche and Blackout. (The first one also has a bunch of wallpaper options of the first Blackout shot.) The Avalanche piece is simply amazing. And… that’s it for today. Away from the keyboard until tonight!(Louis…

Raulboy found a song that’s clearly Halo-inspired… but listening to it makes my ears bleed. What a tradeoff!(Louis Wu 12:18:56 UTC)
