Heroes and Heretics – Opening Credits
A couple of days ago, Slacker Entertainment posted a new clip for their Heroes & Heretics series; the Opening Credits are now up. It’s just credits… but the production value is highhighhigh. I can’t WAIT for ep 1! (Music is original, and quite good; these guys know what they’re doing, across the board.) Check it…

Football and Halo
In honor of yesterday’s Superbowl, Veegie put this little beauty together – and retsamolah reminded us of an older pic he did. (I didn’t have a favorite going into the game – I haven’t had time to watch any football this year – but I have to say, whoever’s job it was in the Steelers…

Alone… Major Tom Diaries… Something.
Laird points out that a Halo machinima which sort of disappeared for a while is back; swing by Echo Zulu Films for the first part of the Three Long Minutes trilogy. Filmed with HaloCE, this is a nice teaser for the series. 16.1 mb, WMP9 format.

Dropshock Ep 10, on a quiet Sunday
Pretty darned quiet weekend; we’ve heard about very little Halo news (which, I suppose, is a good thing when the weekend workload is as big as it is this weekend). Dropshock wrote yesterday to point out that Episode 10 of their podcast has been released; swing by their site to grab a copy. And then…

Portability.
Mintz writes to point out that Halo: Portable (with a new URL) has a few new items for you; there’s the Weekly Updates for the last couple of weeks, and a shot at the new Wallpaper pack early (just donate something). Go grab your mobile Halo content!

Friday’s Fanfic – a day late
SPARTAN-034 reminded me that I’d forgotten to post the weekly Fan Fiction update yesterday (probably because he had a story in the batch) – they’re up now. 22 pieces – go read!

Ceramic Elite Helmet
Almost a month ago, Teek Vander Bee sent us a bunch of pictures of a ceramic Elite helmet he’d been building – apologies for taking so long to post them. You can find them on this page.

MLG Championship – coming soon
3Suns points out that MLG has announced the location (and dates) of their National Championships this year – they’ll be in New York City on February 25 and 26. Book your plane fare now!

The Loltruck – rocking your world.
Frankie’s posted the Weekly Update (and once again frustrated forum denizens longing to out-First him). There’s a bunch of useful answers to questions asked on our forum (and elsewhere), and NEW WALLPAPERS at b.net (breathtaking – you gotta go look, and thank agdTinMan). And titillating information about how the Bungie Princess plans to spend her…

The Same As Closed-End-Leasing.
Eep! I almost forgot to post today’s One One Se7en. (Maybe it would have been better if I did, though…) Brits will definitely get this one faster than Americans.

Legendary II – redux
Yesterday, we posted the second episode of blackouTT’s Legendary machinima series – but he was pretty unhappy with a few things. (Audio sync was off, for one… and at least one transition was missed.) He sent us a new copy of the film, which we’ve uploaded – the links in yesterday’s news post will bring…

Mistaken Identity
Z, over at Halo2Forum, points out a rather bizarre little glitch; I suppose it COULD be faked, but it doesn’t look like it. It’s not very big (under 6 mb, wmp9 format), so go grab it, and see if you’ve ever seen this before.

Podtacular Ep 48 (and new web digs)
Podtacular is back on a once-a-week rotation – and they’ve got a new website, to boot. Go grab Episode 48! Thanks, Foo Mo Jive.

Oh So Beautiful 4
Jamie98s has made a series of videos detailing the beauty of Halo’s scenery. (Check our news archives if you missed the first three.) Yesterday, he submitted a new one – Oh So Beautiful 4 sticks with multiplayer maps… gives you a new perspective on the killing fields we spend so much time in. The MPRRS…

They just don’t understand him.
Over at Rampancy.net, there’s a pretty interesting writeup of Stubbs the Zombie; Narcogen is eloquent in his defense of Stubbs as a fun game, and one that is underappreciated in several key areas. It’s the first part of a longer piece, and it uses Halo as a benchmark, in some cases, to judge against -…

Man… if I had that on XBL…
Wow. A couple of weeks ago, we pointed out the DeviantART gallery of lhs – today, MattKnight01 noticed a new image in that gallery. That’s one heckuva gun!

I bet they’d do a half-decent job with it.
Chaos Recon, on our forum, and Dolbex, over at MLGPro.com, both pointed out a goof on the Gamestop website (first seen, apparently, at Kotaku) – Bungie’s next project… is an EA-franchised game… for the PS3? As Neo would say… whoa. (And before you jump on your email client to tell us how stupid we are…

Tied the Leader gets cerebral
There are a pair of pretty interesting new blog entries over at Tied the Leader – XerxdeeJ wonders if who you are in real life ever bleeds over into your Halo gameplay… and Wheels (a clanmate of deeJ) discusses your brain, and how to get it into the zone where you can be the most…

Alphabet Soup
Frankie wants your Qs. And your Ps. And your carrots. Hmm… maybe just your Qs. If there’s something you want to know from Bungie, and it’s NOT about stuff they haven’t announced yet, visit the thread, toss your question into the hat. You might just get it answered in tomorrow’s Weekly Update. Update: You’re certainly…
