Year: 2014

The newest Halo Bulletin, published last night, discusses the MCC Launch Invitational (a pro tournament taking place in LA just before launch), reminds you to watch the Nightfall trailer (and lets you do so right from the page), previews Halo: Escalati…

Rockslider is back with a trio of videos – they all involve the Halo 1 Keyes hangar battle and the three-way shenanigans you can participate in with a little setup. Go watch! (Louis Wu 22:38:45 UTC)

SEspider pointed out a 2008 interview with Tim ‘343 Guilty Spark’ Dadabo, recorded by AvidX – I couldn’t find any record of this before, so here you go!(Louis Wu 22:24:27 UTC)

Yesterday IGN live-streamed almost 2 hours of the Master Chief Collection. There’s plenty of multiplayer and campaign footage from each game as well as a look at a new H2A Blur cinematic. Everything is looking really good!(mastrbiggy 08:35:39 UTC)

Waypoint has released a full trailer for Halo: Nightfall – and it gave me shivers. Go watch it! Thanks, RANKLANCER.(Louis Wu 20:57:22 UTC)

Awesome! Looks like there’ll be another iteration of Halo Fest – this one is taking place in Los Angeles, the night before the release of The Master Chief Collection. Will you be there? (Thanks to TDSpiral for the heads-up!)(Louis Wu 20:56:44 UTC)

Funky! Gamecheat13 has managed to mod his way into the Halo 4 cutscenes as a playable character! (The Chief is still present… he’s just moving around him.) Weird and creepy! It’s unclear whether he can actually affect existing activity – as you could…

profhalo stopped by with some interesting info – it looks like 343 has updated the promotional material for the Master Chief Collection in an… intriguing way. Go see what the flap’s about!(Louis Wu 23:41:30 UTC)

IGN’s latest offering in their month-long coverage of the Master Chief Collection is a video showing off Halo 3 in 1080p, at 60 frames per second. Gorgeous! Go look. Thanks, Moorpheusl9.(Louis Wu 23:40:13 UTC)

You can watch a First Look (like what you see in theaters while you’re waiting for your movie to begin) of Halo: Nightfall right now – looking good! Thanks again, Moorpheusl9.(Louis Wu 23:48:57 UTC)

Goin’ down to Stonetown IGN has posted a walkthrough of Stonetown, the newest iteration of Zanzibar. Awesome! Thanks, Moorpheusl9.(Louis Wu 23:46:26 UTC)

Yesterday, the Halo Waypoint team released a trailer for ‘Remaking the Legend’, a documentary which looks at the development process of Halo 2 Anniversary. Pretty cool! Thanks, robofin117.(Louis Wu 20:40:33 UTC)

A couple of days ago, Wahrer stopped by with a new remix he’d put up – he worked on the Brinstar theme from Super Metroid in the style of ‘Encounter’ from the Mombasa Suite, off of the Halo 2 soundtrack. Interesting combination – go listen! (Louis Wu 2…

It wouldn’t be a weekday in October without new MCC content from IGN – so check out the video walkthrough of Bloodline, the successor to Coagulation (and Blood Gulch before it). Thanks, as usual, Moorpheusl9.(Louis Wu 15:50:27 UTC)

A side note in the day-one patch story is of interest to UK gamers: According to Halo Waypoint, the release date in the UK has been moved forward – the original November 14 is now November 11, same as in the US. Nice! (Thanks, Moorpheusl9.) Not so nice…

Kotaku explains why you’ll either be pre-loading the Master Chief Collection (pre-loading for digital copies is available now, actually) or maybe not actually playing on Launch Day – there’s a 20GB Day-One download coming. (It’s not even a patch – it’s…

robofin117 noticed some pretty nicely-done ODST armor (and a gun) for Fallout New Vegas – go play!(Louis Wu 15:39:34 UTC)
