One wonders if there’s something in the air… we just received word of a German fansite devoted to Halo. It’s titled “Halo Network”, which could cause some confusion with the American site that has the same name… maybe we should refer to it by its URL, halo.gamesweb.de. Go take a look! Pax.

A fond farewell to Mojo, who announces tonight that Halam is (closing? hibernating? giving up?) ceasing to maintain its news coverage. He may be back… but in the meantime, take care, Mojo! Pax.

“In an age of interstellar space travel, AIs and military cybernetics would we still be driving around in ground based tanks and four wheeled vehicles?” asks the Marathon’s Story page. Help us Nathan from the unholy one! Pax.

Matt Soell clears up the Armor mystery… just a case of bad codenames. Thanks, Matt! Pax.

“It takes an unusual creative talent to know how an inscrutable alien race would have designed the interior structure of their ancient space relic.” says a Bungie job advert. A reference to Halo? Join the discussion in our forums. Pax.

Wow… scooped by the Core from our own forum! We must be asleep at the switch. Congratulations to Nathan Bitner, who announced his engagement, new screenshots, and a new job (in that order). Now all we need are the screens! Pax.

Sorry we had to restrain Wirehead again! The new shot Lars describes below sounds very like the one in the recent Next Generation two page spread (263K). Pax.

Thanks to Eric Salzman, who graciously allowed us to snag a copy of his Halobay.jpg for our Miscellaneous Art (original) area. And thanks to Total Halo, where we found the image in the first place. Pax.

Who was crunching over the weekend? SETI Halo Marine 48 hour stats posted-go see who the movers are! Pax.

In our quest to collect all the Halo art out there, we’ve added two logos to our Logos page. Thanks, Sam and =NAV=Kude! Pax.

Major kudos to Simon Brownlee for sending us the scans of the German PC Action (Dec ’99) Oni/Halo preview article (2 pages). This is the magazine that has the controversial Halo movie. There are two flavors: Low Cal Page 1 (201K) and Page 2 (219K) or Hi Cal Page 1 (392K) and Page 2 (444K).…

=NAV=Shadow writes to let us know that his clansite, NAVCON, has an edited version of the Halo trailer available. He’s also added a new flash intro. Swing on by and take a look! Pax.

We, the HBO team, have declared Sunday a day of rest for the Halo SETI Team stats. Stats will return with a vengeance tomorrow. Pax.

SonicStorm writes to tell us that Halo Network now has a columns section. There’s only one there now, but it should flesh out quickly. Go check it out! Pax.

“Halo reference in Chimera” says Marathon’s Story. Download that Myth II scenario now! Pax.

In response to all the analysis done on the Flamethrower pic that gXp has released (also here, locally), we’ve compiled a Camera Types page. Take a look, and if you’ve got something new, feel free to submit it. Pax.

A hearty welcome to Tim and Jeremy, who between them bring 256 units to the Halo SETI Team. Glad to have you aboard! Pax.

Synox mentions in Core forum post that the 12/99 issue of PC Action (german) magazine has a brand new Halo movie on its cover CD. Anyone want to upload it? Pax.

GWDEMISE sends us a Halo Desktop Theme for Win95/98. If you just can’t get enough Halo, snag this. (1.6 megs, zipped.) Pax.

MacDrugal notices some interesting details on the Halo Hologram. Artifacts of a 3D card, or cities? You decide. Pax.
