Once upon a time, we let you know about a group called TeamSexy (most of the posts were in 2003 and 2004, though there’ve been a few references to SexyJosh in the following five years) – they liked Halo, a lot. Recently, they’ve been hosting a series c…

343’s Josh Holmes stopped by the TeamBeyond forums to explain some of the reasoning behind the changes we’ve seen in the current footage of Halo 5 Beta multiplayer. Take a peek! Thanks, Gravemind.(Louis Wu 22:00:23 UTC)

We just got word that Omnithon is currently streaming Halo 2 Anniversary to raise money for Child’s Play – go watch, and if you’ve got it, throw some money in the pot! It’s a great cause. (If they get to $500 in donations, they’ll be running this in So…

RVideo let us know about a montage from Kiko Mia – it’s called ‘Into The Trance 2’, and it’s 21 minutes of crisp Halo gameplay set to hypnotic music. Go watch!(Louis Wu 20:20:59 UTC)

This is amazing. Thanks, gamerguy2002.(Louis Wu 23:22:39 UTC)

DrBizz let us know that he’s expanded on his discovery of a hidden warthog in Cairo Station (we mentioned that back in March 2013). He’s actually figured out a way to have the hog driveable! This is done on an original Xbox, with an unmodded version of…

Chappified let us know that he’d created a new montage with his brother – nothing complicated, just fun gameplay. Covers most Halo games. Go watch!(Louis Wu 06:29:09 UTC)

A couple of forumgoers put together recent montages – Melee wanted to highlight the fun he’s having in MCC Matchmaking (watch his montage here), while 2good4u2 just wanted to update his randomness collection (watch his Destiny/Halo video here). Fun stu…

The Bulletin, the video evolution of the original Halo Bulletin, took a break after Episode 1, which was released on 11/14 – mostly because of issues with the Master Chief Collection. It’s back now – Episode 2 was released yesterday. Go catch up! (Than…

Looks like Spartan Strike, the followup to Spartan Assault, is being delayed until early 2015, so that 343 can focus on the issues facing the Master Chief Collection. Full details on Halo Waypoint. Thanks, Urban Reflex.(Louis Wu 16:28:38 UTC)

Real life is totally in the way right now, but there were a few gems on our forum worth sharing. Let’s get started with Gamecheat13, who found a way to enable Moah-riding in Halo Reach – this was built in for a Joust-like minigame which was cut before …

There’s a new Content Update available for the Master Chief Collection – it focuses specifically on matchmaking. There’s a list of changes available in the notes from 343 on Halo Waypoint – go give it a read! (There’s another update targeted for early …

If you’re interested in seeing what Halo 5 Multiplayer gameplay looks like, Ready Up Live and Polygon have posted an hour of it. Should give you enough time to form an opinion! Thanks, Revenant1988.(Louis Wu 16:57:08 UTC)

Urban Reflex noticed that the Escalation comic series has quietly been extended – it’s no longer a 12-piece series, it’s at least 16. Interesting!(Louis Wu 16:54:36 UTC)

Gamecheat shows what it would have been like playing as an Elite in Halo 4’s Spartan Ops. (It would have been hard, since none of the guns point the right way.) Thanks, gamerguy2002. (Louis Wu 16:53:37 UTC)

This is fun. Thanks, Kzy1m3.(Louis Wu 23:07:22 UTC)

General Vagueness stopped by with a new project – ‘Breaking out of Halo 4’. He’s got fileshare downloads available of all the Multiplayer maps (from the 360 version, not the MCC version of Halo 4) that you can grab and play around with. (There are a fe…
