It’s Thursday, so it’s time for another Double XP Weekend to kick off – this week, it’s Living Dead (unranked). Go eat brains. They’re awesome with ketchup.(Louis Wu 20:59:41 UTC)

Okay, so Epic Movie sort of killed the word (‘epic’) for me… but it’s back, now, because urk has pointed out Armeddragon77’s trailer for his 3rd vehicular montage – and it’s epic. (Except for that tank Killtrocity. I mean, hell.. guy 4 wasn’t even moving!) Go watch. It’s fun when people take themselves less seriously.…

Johnny B Good, from Halo.fr, sent along a link to a panorama he’s added a few artistic touches to… check it out.(Louis Wu 20:46:59 UTC)

The ‘Tilt Shift’ effect isn’t unheard of with respect to Halo 3 – we mentioned a site that described a technique for working with Halo 3 screens back in September. However, we just got word from J.R. that he’d found a website that will make these for you… and he used it to whip up…

Bungie.net has word of a new ‘ninjatage’ from KillPie – it’s amazing what you can do with an eye on your radar! Death by assassination… lots of it. 2:37 long – enough to really get a sense for his style, not so much you get bored. Go watch!(Louis Wu 17:50:51 UTC)

The next Game With Fame event is up – you can play Halo 3 with four metal bands on February 8. Members of As I Lay Dying, Protest the Hero, Human Abstract, and MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE will be on hand to trade hot BR lead with you. Swing by to see how to sign up.(Louis Wu…

It’s been a while since we mentioned a Podtacular episode – but Hype brought episode 177 (Customs and Creations) to our attention, so swing by and give it a listen! 24.5 mb, 53 minutes.(Louis Wu 15:08:50 UTC)

TheFinalFight has an interview with Brian Simon – what made him e-famous, what music he enjoys listening to, his pet peeves about Halo. Fun stuff! Thanks, 2900d4u.(Louis Wu 15:06:05 UTC)

A couple of new Halo 3 screenshot comic eps today – anthraxgoon told us about X36 Chapter 1 Episode 15 (the PHOENIX has risen), and The Catfish provided word of 2501 Episode 8 (you gotta wonder about lines like “I never miss a second time”). Check ’em!(Louis Wu 14:58:07 UTC)

Wow… ANOTHER Plasma Pistol montage? I’m amazed there’s enough footage for ONE, let alone two. (This one, unlike the last one, actually has people fighting back… which makes the deaths all the more funny to watch.) Go check out conor2020’s HD ode to the blobshooter. And hope you’re not in the next one. Thanks, urk.(Louis…
