Cysco (Marc Tardif, Halo PC Producer for Gearbox) posted a pretty extensive overview of the 1.03 patch, and stated it would likely be released next Monday, the 8th. Go visit the Gearbox forums for all the details!

Our very own Count Zero is the subject of the latest Spotlight over at the Junkyard. Ever wonder about the guy who answers the email you send to halo@bungie.org? Wonder no more – go read.

Red vs Blue has created a new promo for the SpikeTV Video Game Awards. If you’re a sponsor, it’s available now for download on their forum. (If you’re not, it’ll be out for the masses sometime later.) It’s great. Thanks to P_40E for the heads-up.

Nukedude pointed out that he has hosted all 5 of KORHAL’s movies, in one place. If you’re interested in what KORHAL’s been up to, here’s a decent place to start. (If you don’t know who KORHAL is, you can just watch the movies; it doesn’t really matter.)

Ferret pointed out a video (shakeycam) from AGP3 – StK vs TDT. 35 mb, WMP8 format. You’ll have to register on Spartanzclan’s site (free) to download. Dunno… lotta camping going on, you ask me.

A Guest One One Se7en, written by… One One Se7en? Hmm..

The Spike TV Video Game Awards were given out last night in Las Vegas, and though they won’t air on Spike TV before tomorrow night, GamerFeed has announced the winners. Halo 2 was up for ‘Most Anticipated Game’ – it won. Halo PC was up for ‘Best PC Game’ – it won. (It was also…

Lion got around to writing up his experience at AGP3 last week. Check it out here.

Not mine, actually – Morningstar’s. (The tribute, that is. I wasn’t – oh, never mind.) The MorningStar decided there was a missing feature here at HBO – a way to read stories written by forum jester Skavenger, without having to search through the archives. (Skavenger has never opted to submit his works to our Fan…

progamerz stopped by our forum to point out three new sites at HaloCity, all modding-related; check out SomeRhino’s Domain (nice shots of an in-progress map), Skin Deep (shots of racing stripe skins for hogs, among other things), and Digital Adrenaline (no real info yet, just a Flash intro).

In the ‘too much time on their hands’ category, Hikaru-119 takes home the golden penguin for his Munitions count on all campaign levels of Halo. Gah.

A monster collection of Miscellaneous Artwork for you today (17 pieces), due to the fact that the last update was about 2 weeks ago. Everything from misplaced comics, to pencil sketches, to animated mini-movies… a real grab-bag. Go check it out.

Stuntmutt revisits the mystery at the top of 343 Guilty Spark in today’s One One Se7en. Dunno why… I was expecting a ‘Can you hear me now?’ joke instead…

Poll smash; Gamespot wants to know what 2004 release you’re most looking forward to? Halo 2 is currently on top; if you can stomach the enormous ad to get in, help make sure it stays there. (Thanks to Alucard for pointing it out.)

Noobs – you gotta love ’em. Halo: Resolution shows you why.

Another mirror has appeared for the Making Of Halo 2 vid – WorthPlaying has put up copies on all its servers. (Three are in the US, one is in Sweden.) Don’t miss this one! Update: Halo Orbit, in Germany, has put up a copy, as well. Check the mirror page! Update 2: and 6 MORE…

In honor of the release of Halo: First Strike in bookstores today, Bungie has put up a brand-new wallpaper (in four sizes), using Lorraine McLees’ gorgeous cover artwork. Check it out!

Wow. Dave Mertz, lead designer on Halo PC for Gearbox, resigned as of yesterday. Details can be found in this forum thread on Gearbox’s forum. Hmm… I wonder what this means for the 1.03 patch, or the Editing Tools package? Thanks to progamerz for the heads-up.

For those interested in the AGP Fall Halo Championship, rapture has rounded up a bunch of links for you. Good stuff!

Woohoo! My Red vs Blue DVD came in the mail today… and man, this thing rocks. I’m not gonna get very much work done in the next bit here… All I can say is, if you haven’t already ordered one of these, go do it. It’s worth the bucks.
