There’s a new Subzero Rivalries comic posted – it’s pretty funny. Go take a look! Thanks to MarkHawk for pointing it out.

Xhzjang has created a new tool – HMMM, the Halo Map Meta Modifier. It’s a patcher program for Halo Map files, but it works by modifying the individual meta files, not just making hex changes. This means you can make patches for multiple maps at one time. Nice! Thanks to Reppyboyo for the heads-up.

Hehe – this is a nice twist. J Squared has submitted a Halo Dot Game; download this image and print it out, and you and a friend can play this classic pencil-and-paper game with a twist. Connect the dots to close off boxes… but this time, there are Covenant forces inside some, and you get…

The Xbox Ottawa website has been updated with public versions of FTC 11; there’s a 39.9 mb DivX version, and a 30.6 mb QuickTime version. It’s nearly 7 minutes long, and a lot of fun to watch – these guys do GREAT things with mods. We’d encourage you to use the BitTorrent link if you…

Halobabies.net has been updated – comic 29 is now available to the public. In addition, there are 5 new concept sketches – Halo Babies vehicles! Check ’em out.

Do a search for BOLL in our news archive, you’ll come up with almost 100 hits. The vast majority of those are for cool toys – games, images, animations… the man’s a producing machine. If you’re interested in how he thinks, TheBeast, over at Levels4you.com, has interviewed him. The focus is on modding… but there’s…

(GT)Juggler has posted Halo GT Video 7 over at their website; it’s a modding vid, showing off lots and lots and lots of different mods. 35.8 mb, 4:49 long, DivX-encoded .mp4. He’s started a thread on our forum, if you’d like to comment.

Crisply Spartan posted the third Weekly Update for the First Strike mod; some fantastic concept art, a new weapon, new sound stuff… go read it!

Today’s Guest One One Se7en comes from MasterTJ of Dark Halo. If you don’t get it, move on. If you do, we don’t want to know about it.

New Calvin and Halo from Blackstar today… you know, this would be funnier if I hadn’t been cleaning peas off the window last night for half an hour.

XLNC has posted a rather extensive guide to Halo PC Hacking for beginners. The main thrust is to help people take cool HUDless screens like the ones he’s been releasing for the past few weeks… but it’s a good basic guide to applying patches in general, and a summary of the tools available. It was…

The Gamespy Title Fight between Halo and Goldeneye 007 has another 9 or so hours to run – and as of right now, Halo is leading with more than 6000 of the 10,000 votes cast. Doesn’t make it a lock, though… Update: Round one is over – and Halo won it handily; 10,021 to 6434.…

DocOctavius continues with his rendering – this time, it’s an elite with a glowing energy sword. Nice!

Legend, from Halo Orbit, has put up a column about the coming of Halo 2, and Bungie in general; Google’s translation services do a pretty awful job with the German, so it’s hard to give you a better idea of what it says. If you read German, go check it out!

Two new Halo songs (three songs altogether) have been uploaded to SexyJosh’s website; one is called XBC Halo, the other is Josh’s take on Nico’s Red vs Blue theme. Go get ’em!

goatrope and Devin, along with venom, essex, nukedude, and ziggy, have put together a new Tricks-filled movie showing how to get out of various Halo PC multiplayer levels, or use clipping glitches to get into walls, or… well, go watch. The movie is 3:32 long, and weighs in at 39.3 mb in DivX format. There…

I was poking around Tina Leyk’s website yesterday, and I ran across a link to VCL, a collection of Furry art. Tina’s created an enormous number of images that can be found in their archives – including 4 Halo-related pieces that aren’t on her own website. With her permsission, they’ve been added to our Tina…

Little Dragon posted an update on the upcoming HPC mod from the Covenant Grounds team known as Dimentia. New weapons, a new location, and balance – this one looks to be good! Check it out.

As pointed out by Bonta-Kun, Fire Team Charlie has released episode 11 of their series, for sponsors. (It’ll be out for the masses a bit later.) Currently in DivX format – QuickTime coming soon. This one is pretty darn cool; I LOVE Mt. Hangemhigh and the android factory!

Gamestop got an exclusive Battle-Damaged Master Chief action figure – he looked like the regular MC, but his armor was scratched up, and he came with a plasma rifle instead of a sniper rifle. (He still got a pistol and his trusty AR.) WizardUniverse hs now unveiled a new Exclusive – the Battle Damaged Sniper,…
