The Codex Series has posted Episode 13 – things aren’t looking too good for the humans. Nice film work, as usual. Go watch!

Two more E3 picture collections from Bungie fans – Djof’s is here and Hippieman’s is here. Again – minimal Halo content, but there are some nice pics of community members.

Sector 7 Halo has put up Squad 7 Episode 1, the first chapter of their machinima project. 3:21, 30 mb. Seems like it must be a setup for the rest of the series…

XboxZone.com.au has posted a writeup of their finalist’s experience in the International Halo 2 Tournament that ended yesterday Cabel came in 5th, but it was a good run. Go read!

Thanks to Major Nelson (via mot), who let us know that King Tuur, of the Netherlands, is the winner of the Halo 2 Worldwide Tournament!

An old term will take on new meaning come July 5… check out today’s One One Se7en.

Rockslider has updated his website with a new section on the Spiral Path megabattle (your last chance with a tank on AotCR). If you like fighting massive battles, check this one out!

A 33-year-old journalist competed in a major Australian tournament recently – the writeup is pretty funny, though his performance (and that of his team) was pretty abysmal. Fun stuff.

Captain Spark released another batch of dialogue snippets, this time all Elites. You can snag the entire batch at his website, zipped, or peruse them at your leisure in our Dialogue Databank.

The Business section of today’s New York Times took a pretty in-depth look (free registration required, or visit bugmenot.com for a user/pass) at the Halo movie deal. It contains details about what Microsoft was asking (stuff I haven’t seen elsewhere yet), as well as what each party got (Microsoft seems to have gotten 10% of…

Because of the day or so downtime on the Fan Fiction section this week, there are only 8 new pieces for you today – go read!

Couple of tourneys we’ve heard about: Video Gamers League has posted details of their Orlando Regional Championship, to be held at the Xtreme Auto Xpo next Sunday, June 19, in Kissimmee, FL, and Scooter pointed out that tomorrow, in West Chester, OH, there’s a singles and doubles tourney hosted by Game Junkie. If you’re in…

Greendude was cleaning out his closet, and came across a collection of pogs, a game that gained new popularity about 10 years ago (follow the link for more info). He found one that looks eerily like the Master Chief… weirdness.

The Halo Cutscene Library is now complete – we’ve posted the Final Credits today. And for those who don’t want to download individual files, HaloChat has bundled up all of the WMP9 Hi-res versions (minus this one, I’d assume), and made them available in a single 368 mb zip download. Wonga!

Our own Count Zero has finally compiled his photos from E3 this year – there’s very, very little Halo content, except for the Plasma Fiesta subsection. And I must say I was disappointed with his Booth Babes section – he missed some of the best ones. All that aside, though, there are a LOT of…

Today’s Halo Babies comic takes a look at one of Bungie’s strategies during this week’s Halo Humpday Challenge. Oooh…

SketchFactor wrote up Bungie’s version of the Halo Humpday Challenge against the Halo Babies crew (you’ve already seen HB’s version) yesterday – there’s a veiled threat that unless the next challenger tosses the match and lets Bungie win, they might cancel the whole idea of the HHC. Ouch!

mindquirk hivebrain writes to say that his Mac OSX software, which includes a Friends List viewer, a Halo 2 Stats viewer, and a standalone Halo2 emblem designer, is now fully compatible with Tiger, and available for download. Go Grab the suite – or just the apps that interest you!

The last two contestants (winners from Japan and the US) have been added to the Worldwide Halo 2 tourney, so finals are all set for today. Xbox.com has set up a Tournament Bracket to allow you to keep track of the action – check it out! Thanks to TeamXbox and Daily Game for the heads-up.

Lots and lots and LOTS of people have been sending us links to stories about the Halo movie script being shopped out recently – they must have missed this news post, and this one, both of which went up on Tuesday. However, today, there’s NEW news – Variety has put up this story (it was…
