This week’s big challenge is a LASO run through New Alexandria. (Amazing timing there, Tyrant.) If Quad Mythic is a bit too overblown for you to follow, RC Master has a sub-13-minute run that might help. (The absurd Banshee-through-the-hospital shortcu…

Eep – almost forgot a custom-painted McFarlane figure that Sl’askia put together – really pretty! Check it.(Louis Wu 12:03:21 UTC)

Interesting – local artist TDSpiral created a pretty killer image called ‘Faith’… but we needed onebitrocket to find it on DeviantART before we could enjoy it! (Yes, it’s fan-art for the upcoming fan-movie. So that would make fans of the piece… wh…

If you have inordinate amounts of time to spend, and you’d like to try out some (really) classic gametypes… check out Classic Customs Night. Tex wrote up the sixth iteration of these happenings, complete with screenshots and videos that make her loo…

General Vagueness got some really bizarre screenshots from Tempest, Highlands, and Forgeworld – go look! (Louis Wu 12:00:46 UTC)

SonGoharotto continues his rewrite of the original Halo script – he released The Silent Cartographer last night. Seems like we’re pulling away from the original… (Louis Wu 11:57:42 UTC)

padraig stopped in yesterday to point out a tweet from thevowel, who was present at RvB Canwest. Looks like we know the next short story from Evolutions to be released in graphic animated form! Update: in case anyone was unsure whether this was offici…

The Tyrant had a bit of trouble getting his normal Quad Mythic team together, but he did pull Matclan, Michael Archer, and Leumas Loch from the Mythic community to run New Alexandria in Legendary, with All Skulls On… and the resulting run gets The Ty…

Wow. I love my kids – but I don’t share any ink with them. This is not true of Gnuet and MikeyDog62 – this father/son team has matching NOBLE tats. That’s Halo (and family) love!(Louis Wu 21:53:27 UTC)

RVideo sent word of 48 Hours, a minitage from Toastyame that includes footage from a single 48 stretch. (That timeframe covers both the gameplay AND the editing.) It’s just two and a half minutes long – but it contains some pretty impressive gameplay …

Attention, entire world. Why aren’t you in Vancouver right now? Kathleen (aka Tex), Nico (from Trocadero) and Luke (the artist of m*therf*ck*in’ RT Comics) are there. Go say “hi”.

katancik won a package of goodies from Bungie for his very early All-Star win – t-shirts, an action figure, and (best of all) birthday cards… with his own winning design. Awesome!(Louis Wu 23:13:17 UTC)

Stephen Loftus sent us another 20 signs for his “Signs of Halo” collection – they’re spread out amongst almost all groups. This brings the total for the collection to 200 – not too shabby!(Louis Wu 22:42:41 UTC)

Neeew Video! Earlier this week we had the pleasure of working with Jon Graham. Jon as many of you know is the creator of Arby ‘n’ the Chief. This mashup didn’t really start off all that great. We had never seen Jon before and we weren’t expecting …

The saga continues on Halo Waypoint for The Mona Lisa motion comic. Still building, but getting better and better. Go check it out! Thanks to General Vagueness who also mentioned it on our forums.(GrimBrother One 15:40:31 UTC)

Hitmonchan107, just before heading out for a weekend of debauchery and pantsless reveling, stopped into our forum with word of an interesting aside in an interview with Epic’s Cliffy B. Apparently, the Master Chief COULD have been in Gears 3, but the i…

Bones153 wanted to give folks some serious incentive to complete this week’s Weekly Challenge – four copies of the Defiant Map Pack (or the equivalent in MSP, if you have it already) for the 4-player team that could score the highest and have the most …
