Arbi7er
AssaultGodzilla is back – this time he’s created ‘Arbi7er’, set to Link Park’s ‘Numb’. The music may be tired, but the clips are well-chosen, and the timing, as usual, is quite good. (I will say that although I’ve seen FAR too many Halo videos set to this song, it’s actually quite appropriate here.) (Louis Wu…

Jordan491 noticed that (at least for US residents) the iTunes Store contains previews of all the songs on the Halo Legends Soundtrack, and gives you the opportunity to preorder it.
