Be A Hero – Today!
I was heartened (no pun intended) to see all the Haiti-induced shoulder emblems on LIVE players last night – and was asked a number of times about them by folks who weren’t wearing them (so there are enough for the average player to sit up and take notice). You’ve still got another day to show…

Hide, Seek, Snap: Round 6 Winner, Round 7 Screens
Hide, Seek, Snap continues apace – III Hyokin III was first with the Round 6 answer. Enjoy that Johnson code! Round 7 has two screens – don’t send us both (you can only win once). There are still 15 codes to win (though we’re almost out of screens – gonna need a new batch, stat!),…

2009 Best of Halo Awards: Winners!
Hawty McBloggy has posted the results of the 2009 Best of Halo Awards – spectactular artwork by Halcylon, and some great choices in there by the fan community! I think an additional award should go to Rooster Teeth for the best acceptance speech. Go check out the results – and thanks, once again, to Hawty,…

Edge: Tales from the Fall
Edge’s latest issue has Reach on the cover, as well – and they’re starting to put excerpts of the goodness on their website. The first article online is called ‘Tales of the Fall’, and it’s an interview with Marcus Lehto, Joe Tung, and Brian Jarrard. I have to say, while it’s short, it’s awfully promising…

Oonsk Lives! (on canvas)
Well, Halopedia didn’t think much of Oonsk (a nascent article detailing his existence was deleted within a few hours of its creation)… but that doesn’t stop him from filling vital roles in the Halo universe. Frankie dropped by with a photo of a new painting he created – apparently for a soon-to-be-announced charity event. I’d…

Here’s what we’ve got up ’til now…
Game Informer continues their ‘Reach’ coverage (except for Day 1, it really hasn’t been ‘Reach’ coverage as much as ‘Halo’ coverage, but apparently that will change soon) – yesterday’s article was called ‘The Abbreviated Fiction of Halo’. If you don’t know much about the Halo story, give this a read. (Louis Wu 13:05:17 UTC)

Fan art – it’s what’s for breakfast.
A couple of new pieces of art showed up on our forum last night – TDSpiral revealed ‘Last Glimpse’, a raw look at a Gravity Hammer from the perspective of a downed ODST (I liked it a lot), and GrimBrother One showed off a bit called ‘Darkness and the Intolerance of Waiting’ – Cortana and…

AH: Dante's In-What-O?
Alright guys, this is a real piece of news. Over the past year or so I’ve had the opportunity to visit some game developers and make some pretty good friends. Sometimes these friends stumble on to things they probably shouldn’t. Usually it’s something boring like a code-name for an unannounced game or an early release…

AH: Re-Opp'd!
Now this is just getting crazy. Geoff and I are going back over some Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Spec Ops and beating our own times. This first one is a re-do of Body Count, one of the Bravo Ops. We spent like 16 minutes the first time we ran it, this time we…

RT: Photoshop Contest: RT Comic Mashup
I’ve wanted to do this contest for a long while. Participants can use visuals from ANY RT comic ever released on the site and mix them with any other. HOWEVER, no other assets can be imported into the composition. That means no real pictures of staff members, no banana hammocks, no nothing. You can only…
