MTG Clover X let us know (via HaloGAF’s Twitter, actually) that Multi-Threat Gaming is hosting a tournament – top prize is 1600 MS Points. You can read the details on Halo Waypoint’s forum, and then register on their Facebook page. (Louis Wu 20:05:01 UTC)

Nevin ‘CruelLEGACEY’ Douglas has kicked off work on Playtime Season 4, and wanted to share a collection of screenshots of a new Forge location he’s built for the process. Looks like fun!(Louis Wu 17:51:59 UTC)

Firestream created a really useful Challenges service on HaloCharts – and we finally got around to integrating it into our forum. Grabbing the current challenges on Halo Waypoint’s site takes a whole bunch of mouseclicks, and a bunch of scrolling. Doin…

Jefferson is back with more Halo CE Anniversary tricks, from the HaloBible crew – this time, the montage (and the accompanying tutorial) involves the area outside The Maw. (Not sure I understand the first half of the vid – it’s just a standard playthro…

Zylon 0217 posted a video of two Grunts having a dance off on the level ‘Dawn’ – seems they are having a rap battle too! All you have to do is get past the first Elite encounter above the elevator and sneak into the next control room unnoticed. Neat fi…

Some Forge fans created a pretty funny parody ViDoc showing off the new features of Halo 4’s Forge – I laughed. (pete_the_duck wants to make sure you understand that there might have been a touch of hyperbole in the video… but don’t let that stop you…

Deathmcgunz let us know that episode 1 of the new machinima series, ‘MLG’, is now live – neat concept and great first episode. Go Watch!(mastrbiggy 10:21:11 UTC)

Zylon 0217 shared this video (CONTAINS STORY SPOILERS) demonstrating what happens when you try to jump on the back of a Pelican – the UNSC may want to look into this. I don’t know if I’d consider it an easter egg, but it is amusing!(mastrbiggy 09:15:28…

We’ve mentioned screenshot extractors in the past – but I’ve never seen a web-based version before. Armor Watcher has a web page that will take a saved screenshot file (that you’ve grabbed off your Xbox with a USB drive) and yank out the pic for your u…

Rockslider posted a couple of videos about Spore Herding – he collected about 150 Flood Infection Forms… and played with them. This is pretty amazing stuff! (Louis Wu 18:13:14 UTC)

Skywalker DSP is back with a new commentary vid – the game was Big Team Infinity Slayer on Exile, and they really had fun playing this. Go watch!(Louis Wu 18:11:21 UTC)

A new glyph code was unveiled yesterday – and less than an hour later, it was solved. (Thanks to jay mee, who brought the news to our forum.) If you can beat the Halo 4 campaign on Legendary, with all skulls on… you can use this code to earn 50,000 X…

The Achievement Hunter crew posted a new Fails of the Weak vid yesterday (AH.com | YouTube) – the last one made me laugh. Thanks, Nikko B201. (Louis Wu 18:03:40 UTC)

We mentioned a concept drawing of the Didact’s head earlier today – there was more Didact-related art out on the web yesterday as well. Over at Kotaku, Kolby Jukes (currently Senior Character Artist for 343) had some of his character work (from a varie…

Anoj has compiled the ten best clips from his first nine Halo 4 Top 10 vids – go see what he liked. Thanks, Jordan Bell. (Louis Wu 17:44:19 UTC)

More fun content found in the game files (but not actually in-game anywhere) – looks like Jeff Steitzer recorded the line “Stop shooting your teammates!” at one point. (I’m guessing it didn’t get put into the game because it’s fun enough that folks wou…
