TTL Demag0gue celebrates Friday with Reclaimer 146 – Ferial is getting his way, it looks like.(Louis Wu 14:48:06 UTC)

NartFOpc pointed out the most recent Top 10 Halo 3 installment – Episode 33 shows off 10 Mongoose kills (sometimes by splattering, sometimes because of the passenger’s skill). The number 1? Pretty amazing. Go watch! (Louis Wu 14:45:00 UTC)

It’s Friday, so it’s time for another episode of Friday Caption Fun at Hawty McBloggy’s – a selection of choice captions for last week’s image, plus a great new pic that’s ripe for satire. Do your worst! (Louis Wu 14:44:00 UTC)

Back in the day, the name ‘Dark Helmet’ was widely known in the Halo tricking community – and beyond. He faded from view at some point, though, and we haven’t heard much from him recently… until last week. He stopped by High Impact Halo to show off some harassment of Foe Hammer on the second…

Four new stories this week in the Fan Fiction section – go give ’em a read!(Louis Wu 14:41:57 UTC)

Yesterday evening, Bungie posted the latest in its ‘Breaking In’ series – this one looks at Christian Allen’s road to Bungie. He’s a Design Lead, and came in during the Halo 3 crunch from a different gaming company. Make sure your hacky sack skills are up to par! (Louis Wu 14:38:50 UTC)

Hawty McBloggy highlighted a tiny little clip that should resonate with most of us – how many times have you lost an Oddball game because you ran away with an SMG instead of the ball? This guy had a slightly different problem… but the overall concept’s the same.(Louis Wu 14:38:04 UTC)

Bungie’s updated Halo 3’s Matchmaking on Xbox LIVE – the February update is now online. Information on playlist changes, Double XP weekends, and your next chances at Recon armor are all up. (Double XP this week is Grifball.)(Louis Wu 21:34:42 UTC)

The guys at SmoothMoveFilms took the song that went along with the commercial for Mercenaries 2 last summer, and set it to some Halo action. End result is fun. Thanks, urk.(Louis Wu 21:28:55 UTC)

The Ensemble team has made the Halo Wars Manual available on the Halo Wars website, in PDF format. (It’s in the top newspost at the moment – and since there’s no permanent page to link to, here’s a direct link to the file.) 3.7 mb, 48 pages. Grab a copy! Thanks, L3giticus.(Louis Wu 21:03:05 UTC)
