GFC Danny has started on a cardboard Master Chief outfit – he’s got a couple of photos of the helmet so far.(Louis Wu 12:05:43 UTC)

Halo Live Wire has put up an analysis of the few tidbits of Halo 3 visible in the cam-collected stuff from Iraq this weekend; there’s not much to work with, but trust Bungie fans to pore over every frame! Thanks, Arc Blu.(Louis Wu 12:05:11 UTC)

Delta and a buddy created a Master Chief suit a while back – but never got around to showing it off. You can find a picture in his forum post.(Louis Wu 11:06:01 UTC)

Mister Froggy has started up a new action-figure-based comic – Halo Fever – but needs feedback if he’s going to make more. Check out the first one, and let him know what you think.(Louis Wu 10:51:59 UTC)

Thien noticed a GameDaily vid about Halo 3 while browsing YouTube – but if you want, you can view it at GameDaily, as well. They basically attempt to guess when Halo 3 is going to be released, using information we already have.(Louis Wu 10:38:42 UTC)

The Uncyclopedia page about Halo has been around for a while – but it’s gotten a bunch of updates recently, and it’s more surreal than ever now. Thanks to Ross Mills for reminding us to revisit.(Louis Wu 10:32:21 UTC)

Rookie Rabbit sent us a belated Christmas video that we’ve made even MORE belated by not posting for two days – but you can go watch it now at YouTube.(Louis Wu 10:27:07 UTC)

Been a bit lax on newsposting in the last few days – apologies. Will clear some of that up today. Dzejms noticed a Cnet story a couple of days ago devoted to Nyclan, a videogame center in Manhattan – a place you can play a lot of Halo. Check it out – especially if you’re…

Looks like we might take the day off here, but Stuntmutt never rests. It’s Monday, so there’s a new One One Se7en for you. (You might, of course, find that last night’s partying, coupled with the joke in this strip, will send you into paroxysms of cramping… it’s up to you whether you actually read…

Happy New Year – Step away from the computer! All of us here at HBO wish all of our friends and family the very best for a bright and fruitful new year. In what I would like to consider a tradition started back at the end of 2003, we will shut down the forum for…

New Halo 3 helmet shots from Briar’s Armor – here, here, and here. Movin’ along!(Louis Wu 23:14:49 UTC)

darthbob noticed some interesting pictures and videos showing up on the GameSpot forum and some Myspace profiles. We’re not going to comment much, except to say that Bungie is way cooler about Christmas presents than any other developer I know of.(Louis Wu 23:08:19 UTC)

Elnea discovered a search site called msdewey.com – there’s a ton of funny stuff you can find if you know the right search terms, but try Halo to start with. Do it more than once.(Louis Wu 23:03:42 UTC)

Over at MLGPro.com, you can find player match commentary from Defy, in video form. (Heh – was probably filmed a while back; he starts by saying it’s a match between top-rated Final Boss and his own second-rated team… been a while since Carbon hasn’t been in one of those two spots.) Thanks, 3Suns.(Louis Wu 22:53:53…

GamerX5000 mentioned the first episode of Project Crimson, Prelude of New Life, on our forum – nice filming, intriguing storyline. Check it out!(Louis Wu 22:49:58 UTC)

Deekor sent along info about Halo Outkastz Epsiode 1 – a 2 minute piece that basically sets up their characters. Check it out! (If you don’t want to register on their forum, he posted a direct link in this post.)(Louis Wu 22:31:29 UTC)

If you don’t have a 360, you can still see the Red vs Blue Holiday 2006 video over at their website; it’s currently sponsors-only, but should be live for everyone in a couple of days. Thanks, Black Six.(Louis Wu 22:19:28 UTC)

Demonic noticed a story over at Destructoid; that some folks have modded a homebrew PSP game with Halo graphics, and have Halo running on a Playstation Portable. Nice!(Louis Wu 22:14:16 UTC)

Darksage found a pretty cool auction on eBay, if you’re an action figure collector – the entire Halo 1 figure set (33 items), still in their original boxes. Current bid is $800, which is a decent deal, given current ebay prices. Take a look!(Louis Wu 22:06:29 UTC)

As is probably known by now (since Frankie mentioned it in the Weekly Update on Friday), there was a lanfest here at HBO Central this past week; it was fun. Folks with more energy than I’ve got have already begun posting writeups on our forum – Ma1agate was first, with retsamolah not far behind. Eventually,…
