Year: 2012

DeathMcGunz sent word of a new machinima he released last week – have you ever wondered how Reach figures out who to credit for simultaneous beatdowns? This video will show you.(Louis Wu 14:11:10 UTC)

Grumpy let us know that a Halo 2 trick long thought to be impossible (due to a death barrier) has been accomplished… the secrets of the Green Door on Sacred Icon are unveiled! Go watch his video to see how it was done. (Louis Wu 14:10:14 UTC)

343’s Chris Haluke (Halo 4 Lead Designer) spoke to GameReactor a few weeks ago at E3 – the interview went online this week. There’s not a lot that hasn’t been talked about by other people in other interviews – but you should listen just for the recap….

Method Studios, the FX house behind the Halo: Reach ‘Deliver Hope’ dazzle, was tapped again for the live-action Halo 4 trailer that showed at E3 this year – and if you swing by their website, you’ll find a fantastic summary of the process of building …

Halo Waypoint has posted a couple of videos from the after-hours event at E3 this year – these videos have been seen before, but not on Waypoint. Nice to have a permanent home for them!(Louis Wu 14:36:22 UTC)

Chris Bryan was one of the very first people to build fan-made Spartan Armor – we documented his work starting back in 2003. (He was building props even earlier.) Yesterday, we heard from him again – looks like Halo 4 has fired up his creative juices!…

padraig08 wants to celebrate his birthday by giving you presents. But not FREE presents – you have to EARN them… with screenshots. Go read his post for details!(Louis Wu 14:18:56 UTC)

Over at NeoGAF, JuanGGZ pointed out a Samsung ad that contains some very familiar art assets (but not TOO familiar…) – would you play this game?(Louis Wu 14:17:25 UTC)

A. Benson let us know that the Halo CMT crew has released a video showing off their next big project – Silent Cartographer. Looks pretty amazing! If you’d like to discuss it on our forum, robofin117 has already kicked off a thread.(Louis Wu 14:11:16 UTC)

If you’re feeling like you’d like a nice overview of the UNSC, Halo Waypoint has the goods – go check out ‘What is the UNSC?’ Good stuff!(Louis Wu 16:20:50 UTC)

Paul Shelley sent word that Outpost Isil Season 2 has finally gotten a fourth episode – it’s been almost 7 months since the last one! Go see where the whole gang has gotten to – it’s about 8 minutes.(Louis Wu 16:19:56 UTC)

There’s a new Fails of the Weak episode from the Achievement Hunter crew – you can watch it on AH.com or on YouTube. Some impressive AI fails… and even more ridiculous human fails. The not knowing what a Moa was called was pretty distracting. Thanks…

Elamite and Ace commentated a game in which Promethean Vision played a large role – worth listening to if you want more perspective from pros about this upcoming Armor Ability. Thanks to both CyReN at NeoGAF, and Nak3d Eli on our own forum.(Louis Wu 16…

Robowski told us about Post Game Carnage Report 120 – lots of Halo content, including an ‘exclusive announcement of a fan-made Halo movie’ (not exactly sure what this means, but it’s not mentioned in the first half-hour of this 3.5 hour marathon). Go …

The latest Mail Sack at Bungie.net is amazingly full of wise advice – and hey, I even get a mention! (I don’t live in NY, Dave, but you’re forgiven – I realize your awful accomodations that weekend might have affected your memory a bit.) Go read – it’…

Bravo and BesT MaN released a second segment of community questions about Halo 4 – lots of good stuff. Go listen! Thanks, CyReN. (Louis Wu 15:54:27 UTC)
