The Physics Remastered team recently released a bunch of Halo 3 tricking vids – they show off some unique tricks, and give you complete tutorials to reproduce these yourself. The coolest one is ‘The Island’, getting you to an area in Sierra 117 that i…

AfroRyan pointed out some very cool artwork from concept artist Sam Spratt – the older ODST image he links to is new for me, and the new Reach wallpapers are GORGEOUS. Go see.(Louis Wu 16:51:52 UTC)

We didn’t hear about this until it was over, but there was a 48-hour Machinima Filmmaking Challenge that took place this past weekend – the Rooster Teeth crew and Waypoint were both involved. CrazedOne1988 stopped by today with his entry – not bad!(L…

Gilver found a ‘Generic Space Marine Training Manual’ at IGN – any Halo fan will recognize more than a little bit.(Louis Wu 16:42:33 UTC)

So it turns out that if you’re insane, and get into the Best Buy Reach Launch Party Line in Times Square more than 24 hours before the door opens, you MIGHT just get your picture taken with some Bungie bigwigs and show up on the Reach Developer Blog. …

A jetpack Spartan flew over Trafalgar Square, in London, this morning, as part of the promotion for the launch of Reach – we didn’t get to see any new assassination animations, but we also didn’t have to watch him crash. I think Microsoft could make a…

Worthplaying has an interview with Brian Jarrard, too – this one is more about the game and its development. That Brian – he’s good with words.(Louis Wu 14:03:47 UTC)

The full game of Halo 3: ODST is presented, capped off with an extraordinary accomplishment. RC Master receives the Vidmaster Challenge: Classic Achievement (solo on Legendary, with no shots fired or grenades thrown) on Coastal Highway, faster than th…
