AI Battle – Knight Battlewagons vs Hunters
Wow, this is actually pretty cool. Gamecheat set up some AI-on-AI battles to see which was more badass – Covenant Hunters or Forerunner Knight Battlewagons? From 1v1 up to 20v20 (which might be a little out of Halo 4’s processing range, actually), chec…

Halo | Godzilla Mashup
Gugga Leunnam put together another mashup trailer – this time he took the audio from the Godzilla trailers and edited it to various Halo footage. As always, the end result is pretty superb. Check it out!(mastrbiggy 17:40:20 UTC)

Never the same game twice
Yesterday, Edge Magazine released a retrospective on Halo – one of a very few titles to ever earn the coveted ’10’ in an Edge review. It’s a look back at what made that first title so special – and how gaming has changed forever in response. As with mo…

A Crazy Halo 3 Easter Egg Surfaces… on Easter, 7 years later
In January, Lord Zedd posted a short video purporting to show off a newly-discovered Halo 3 Easter Egg – but refused to explain how to reproduce it. (He preferred that fans find it on their own.) There wasn’t enough in the video he posted for me to be …

The Chalk Stick is Mightier than the Sword
SEspider found a pretty fun video called ‘Chalk Warfare 3.0’ – well-done effects, and the Halo Energy Sword plays a pretty important role! Check it out. (Louis Wu 16:57:03 UTC)

Fails of the Weak 187
I enjoyed the fails this week – there were some funny ones I’d never seen before. (The Kat murder clip was pretty amazing – I’m not sure what the programming behind the behavior might have been.) Watch it on AH.com or YouTube, your choice. Thanks, Nikk…

Rockslide megabattle pistol fiesta
Rockslider returns to Halo’s rockslide megabattle, this time focusing on pistol action (with a liberal sprinkling of grenades). Sometimes it’s amazing to think how much fun can be generated from this one small area of the original game’s campaign!(Loui…

Bravo: Saving Lives, Every Day
Yesterday’s Halo Bulletin is lighter than usual – mostly playlist updates and info about a new Spartan Assault feature – but there are also some answers to community questions, and some cool Adrift screens. Go read! (As always, there’s a copy in our H…

Rogue’s Cortana Suit – Behind the Scenes
Robowski shot us a note about Th3 Rogue, who put together a ‘behind the scenes’ vid showing how she created her Cortana costume – fun to watch. It’s not particularly SFW – there’s footage of what got on her body after the suit came off – but it’s prett…

Halo | Transformers: Age of Extinction Mashup
Gugga Leunnam sent word that he’s got another mashup for you – this one capitalizes on the ‘Transformers: Age of Extinction’ trailer. I was actually surprised by how well some of the bits worked. Really nicely done! There’s even a poster to celebrate.(…

I should have embedded ‘Siege of Madrigal’
It’s not really Halo news, since it doesn’t change anything related to the game or its music… but it’s pretty big news, at least in my world, and it’s certainly Halo-related: Marty O’Donnell no longer works for Bungie. More details can be found in th…
