RC Master shows you how to beat ONI Sword Base, LASO, in under 3 minutes. (Well… if you can play at 7x speed, I guess.) Pretty funny vid! (His post also contains a link to the Bungie.net Fileshare slot containing the REAL run, if you want to watch i…

Looks like we missed a couple of episodes of IGN’s Top 10 Reach Kills – thanks to ChrisTheeCrappy for pointing out the entries for the week of February 16, and the week of February 23 – some great kills in these batches! (Dumb and Dumber, from the 23r…

CruelLEGACEY posted a Mythic Guide to ONI Sword Base, for those of you who are still struggling with the current Weekly Challenge. He takes a lot of his inspiration from Tyrant’s guide right here on HBO – but he shows you that you can make mistakes an…

Mendicant Bias let us know about an article at Topless Robot called ‘7 Things About the Halo Universe That Make No Sense’ – I’m guessing they could have kept going. (Louis Wu 17:23:16 UTC)

BlueNinja slid behind the curtain on The Package – if you’re curious, check out his pics! (And while you’re checking out his handiwork, swing over to Views from the Edge for three cool new Package-based panoramas.)(Louis Wu 17:19:29 UTC)

ElzarTheBam pointed out a bunch of new Halo Avatar gear on Xbox LIVE Marketplace – mostly new armor, in a variety of colors. Take a look!(Louis Wu 17:16:59 UTC)

trappeddark1 noticed that Achievement HORSE #12 is live on YouTube now – It’s PIG again, because Geoff wasn’t around and Burnie took his place. Burnie’s not QUITE as whiny as Joel was… but it’s close. The maps look pretty fun, though, no matter WHAT…

In case you are in the market for a Limited or Legendary Edition of Halo: Reach, Amazon has a pretty sweet deal today. $59.99 USD for Legendary, and $39.99 for the Limited. If you need ’em, go snatch ’em up!(GrimBrother One 15:08:51 UTC)

Looks like GhaleonEB noticed that the new Stats section of the Halo Waypoint site has gone live (at least in beta form). A good bit of what you’re used to seeing over on Bnet is replicated here, with a few new additions, and more to be added later one…

Leviathan has released the cover art to his “A Fistful of Arrows” comic – and even includes a dust-jacket wrap and a timelapse making-of video. I can’t say enough about this – I want to see this project realized as a book I can hold in my hands, and L…

Took a LONG time – but I can still say “I read every single post on the HBO forum”. Caught up! Here’s what I found since the last roundup (well, through a day or two ago): I almost skipped this, because I noticed Grim’s posting about a ‘Nasty’ montag…

Okay, I’m slowly getting there. Currently only a week behind! Here’s some of the fun stuff I found along the way: Nosolee took a look at some Latin you can find in Halo 3’s Bestarium – I LOVE it when we come across Halo fans with relatively obscure s…

Speaking of Waypoint, you should check out the very cool Reach Pictage bs angel stumbled across. Set to the now-familiar “Mad World”, the video shows of some beautiful and abstract photos taken in Reach. Great music, and very nice pics. Definitely wort…
