elmatto dropped by our forum to point out an old comic he started drawing about him and some friends playing Halo. It ends rather suddenly (he put it down to lack of interest), but the art style is pretty interesting to me.

Hijack found an interesting article about game marketing over at the Hollywood Reporter, via EvilAvatar.com. Beth Featherstone, Director of Marketing of Microsoft Games, talks about how much trouble it can be to market a game with no fixed release date, using Halo 2 as an example. (There are tidbits of nice info in there, too…

Recently, Nintendo cut the price on its Gamecube to $99 (making it cheaper, amusingly, than its Gameboy Advance SP product), in an attempt to regain market share. (It worked; Nintendo sold more Gamecubes in the US in 2003 than Microsoft sold Xboxes.) There’s an article on CNN Money today that suggests that MS might be…

Comics, Part II: Today’s Guest One One Se7en comes from Gram shows why taunting in multiplayer isn’t always a good idea.

Today’s Calvin and Halo (from Blackstar) looks at obsessions, and their effects on your outlook on life. (Obsessions? What are those?)

A month ago, vector40 wrote an article on Banshee flight tactics. Today, he’s released part 2. It’s entitled ‘Crash and Flow’, and covers more advanced techniques and strategies. Read the first one, if you missed it… then read this one. It’s currently hosted at Rampancy.net (link above), but should be available at the Junkyard and…

We got an interesting note from Halojunky yesterday:Inspired by the ‘Nighmare’ real armour created a few weeks ago, i made this 117 helmet. It’s made out of corregated plastic card, tin foil and stickytape. I also added a light and a mission camera.If anyone wants to buy it, im selling it for £499. A bargain…

Halo Babies has released content a day early this week, because mrsmiley is getting on an airplane tomorrow to come HERE and play some Halo. There are a pair of strips; the first is Gruntsbane’s entry in the Plinth of Art contest (which I liked a lot, but which didn’t get a lot of points…

Battleground: Halo is running a two-part series called ‘Halo 2: Precognition’. Part 1, released today, speculates about the characters and races we might see in Halo 2. It is based on information gleaned from the Halo novels and the game itself, and contains spoilers for both. Before anyone gets bent out of shape, remember that…

SESpider wrote to ask for input for his Miniature Halo series. This time, though, he needs pictures. In his words:I need fans, that can, to get images of the inside of a Covenant Cruiser’s Hallways and Cells (and maybe bridge Room). The Halls: The Halls can be Empty or with Covenant In them. There can…

=DFA=HK HUNTR-KILLR writes to point out that PC Magazine included Halo PC in their roundup of the best products of 2003 (games category) in the January 2004 issue. (It’s the only pure first-person shooter on the list.) An article showing a small review of the game is online; you’ll have to buy the mag for…

Richard White Jr sent us some information about the 2004 toy lineup from JoyRide, straight from its distributor (he’s a retailer). We have no way of confirming this information right now – but it seemed reasonable… It’s too big for a front-page news post, so you can find the list in our MIscellaneous section.

It took a little while, but the kinks have been worked out – and HBO is very proud to announce the presence of two more HBO Halo PC dedicated servers! Thanks to Homelan, those looking for the somewhat different flavor of gameplay on the HBO servers (no-shields BC Shotties, anyone?) can find what they crave…

Today we have another Miniature Halo for you from SESpider… the plot thickens. So much so, in fact, that he needs your help in advancing it.

Obsidian CZ writes to point out a new build of a Halo 2 mod that’s been under development for a while by NiTrOuSoXiDe; it brings a gravity gun, a covenant sniper, SMG, faster warthog, and a powerful plasma cannon (turret) to the game. You can grab a copy from this thread in the Gearbox forums.…

Halo: Resolution says… whoa.

(GT)Juggler has posted GT6 – It’s a Boy!, the newest in a series of tricks/glitches films. This one is full of really early stunts; grabbing the banshees on AotCR, color glitches, unlimited ammo… I felt like a younger man, watching it. (Well, okay, only a couple of years younger, but…) It’s a 33.4 mb 3ivx-encoded…
