I meant to post this yesterday, forgot. c0ld vengeance snagged a really nice screenshot of one of the underwater denizens you can see through the elevator windows in Delta Halo (and Regret) – you never get this close, normally.

Dennis Powers has released Interlude – A History of the Halo Universe, over at the Halo CE Chronicles website. It tells some of the backstory of the Halo Universe, for folks who have watched his Halo CE Chronicles but have not necessarily ever played Halo. It’s pretty nicely done. Although Dennis wants to host this…

The eBay’d Halo goodies continue to flow – Cassius let us know about this 3.5 foot statue and this partial statue, Flamechu found a 6-foot statue, Phil Shiel found another Muckle statue, and Steve Ray points out that he’s selling an airbrushed Halo 2 Faceplate for an Xbox 360. I think we’re gonna take a…

3Suns points out a couple of fun bits at MLGPro.com – the Player of the Week is Foulacy, and Lil Poison showed up on 60 Minutes last night! (You can watch it online at cbsnews.com. The piece is mostly about Fatal1ty, but the Lil Poison/MLG portion kicks in around 9:35.)

We’ve had a number of people complain about the use of third-party artwork (artwork created by other fans, NOT the submitter) in some of the entries to the Killer Grunts contest. The most heated thread (but not, by far, the only one) on this subject is here. I’m tired of the argument, and tired of…

Heh – Samantha sent us this picture a little while ago – maybe this should be the default vehicle of IBO?

Nexus Beat writes to point out that Wasabi Media is offering free hosting for any gaming-related files… if you’re looking for hosting, check ’em out! (Jamie Hutchinson)

Yet another spectacular pic from Bryn Casey – check out Lost ODST! That guy needs a story…

Wow. This guy doesn’t stop. Last week, we mentioned that scurty had finished the level Keyes in under 3 minutes on Easy, and under 4 on Legendary; he’s pared that Legendary time down to 3:09… with no shots fired. Video quality isn’t so good (looks like he’s been using the same VHS tape for the…

Heh, cool. Out of Reach Constructions (we’ve mentioned them a couple of times, they make pretty spiffy display cases for Halo action figures) is selling The Armoury, display setup for the extra weapons you get with your action figures, on eBay. What a gift this would make for the Halo fanatic in your life! Thanks,…

Speaking of comics, today’s One One Se7en looks at love from a different angle. Mostly up, from the ground, I guess.

Over at HaloPlanet, there’s a new action-figure-based comic called Halo Love. Gloves says he might make more… but it seems like the relationship might be off to a rocky start.

For those of you who haven’t voted yet – you should really swing by the Killer Grunts voting section and pick your favorites. I’ll likely close the polls a bit after midnight UTC tomorrow – make your opinion count!

On Friday, a pair of new Craig Mullins images were discovered on goodbrush.com. Some people had trouble following the links (apparently, his server rejects some connections based on parameters I don’t understand) – but never fear, Craig has given us permission to host local copies of these images. Check out the Dark Hunter… and the…

Cool beans. Dojorkan modded Outskirts to get a feel for how New Mombassa might look at dusk, with fog rolling in… the potential for machinima is staggering. Check out the pics, read the thread. Toss in your own two cents.

You might remember the Hall of Murals, shown only in a cutscene that never got finished (but could be seen on the Limited Edition DVD) – Se7en One extracted them and cleaned them up, and Walshicus colored them. Now Se7en One is back – this time, he’s made 3D versions, and filmed them to give…

Stephen Loftus added 50% more characters to his Halo Character Scale Chart – you can now compare almost all the characters in Halo and Halo 2! (He left out the Keyes Blob, and the Flood Juggernaut (which never made it into the game), because their scale would totally dwarf everything else and make the rest…

On Wednesday, we got a note from Pak about the inclusion of a Halo Warthog in this episode of Concerned (a Half-Life 2 webcomic). It seemed pretty trivial to me, and I was busy… so I passed on mentioning it. This morning, however, we got email from RedRaptor, who explained the significance I missed -…

Whee – a video we released in July, 2004 has made it onto StupidVideos.com – at lower resolution and with a StupidVideos watermark on it. Gotta love that intellectual property stuff. (Really – grab our copies if you haven’t seen this – they’re much nicer.) Thanks, Chris Propes.

We don’t usually mention websites, in and of themselves, on our front page – but this one’s part of the family. IBO, the companion website for irc.bungie.org, is now ready for prime time. (Don’t be confused by the URL – irc.bungie.org runs the irc server, and ibo.bungie.org runs the website. They’re different boxes.) There’s lots…
