A new movie has hit the scene… and it’s a biggie. 21 megs, almost 7 minutes long… with some great stunts, weird glitches, and a large number of laugh-out-loud moments. As of now, there’s exactly one host – our favorite savior, mythica.org. You folks have been known to peg even that prodigious pipe, though… so…

Another pair of desktop images from Eric Gandhi – find ’em in our Wallpaper section.

Just a small note of concern… this peep stuff is getting a little out of hand; you people are starting to scare me.

Thanks to Djoey.154, who pointed out that the Xbox.com Winamp skin easter egg page now contains a second Halo track for your listening pleasure. Worth a look!

Another batch of Fan Fiction – it’s pretty scary how much you guys write…The Renegade Marines, Part X, by ShadowThe Capture, by Jason PridgenCheck, please, by Kellen SquireThe Rookie, Chapter 3, by The British CommandoGo to it!

Whoa! I accidentally hit an old bookmark… and discovered that Rampancy.net is back online! (Okay, it’s BEEN online, at rampancy.synfibers.com, all this time… but the original name works again.) The domain hasn’t been renewed yet, so who knows how LONG it’ll be there… but hey, you should go visit, it was a great site that…

Eep – we missed this one. Xbox Xtreme [dot] Net has put up a new Halo review – they gave it a 10/10, and used a lot of exclamation points to describe it. We’ve added the review to the Reviews Database. (In fact, looking at their site, the original Halo review they posted – with…

PanZer is attempting to compile a database of all the human and grunt dialog lines in Halo. Never mind that Marty has told us there are over 5000… he’s trying it, and he needs your help. Stop by the database, and see what you can do!

Yesterday, Frogblast posted a series of movies chronicling his experiments with the Blue Beams of Death on the level Halo (the series will show up on the Tricks page soon)… not long after, Dark Helmet sent in a new movie to iBonk.com, showing what happens when you Warthog-Jump into one of the blue beams. That…

Appleicious, one of the participants at last week’s Battle of the Bay, has put up several Halo movies for download – both flavors of ‘Halo: The Movie’, the new Movie Teaser, and both flavors of the Rocket Dance vid (which he’s in). We’ve added relevant links to all mirror pages, so if you’re having trouble…

The One-Shots page finally got its update – 8 new images, submitted up to 3 weeks ago. (They’re all dated today, because it makes more sense to me that way.) Check ’em out! Next up – the 9 new tricks submitted since Friday’s major update… (look for it tomorrow, or the next day.) Note: If…

Eric Gandhi sent in a new desktop for our database – you’ll find it in the Wallpaper section. Nice and blue…

Three new fan fics this evening (though one is actually a concatenation of a pair of submissions; they both came before I got to this update, and the second was too short to stand alone, and they’re both part of the same story…)ODST Saga, Chapter 2, by Robo42786Well Enough Alone, Part III, by RyanHalo: Combat…

Macgamer.com has put up an interview with Peter Tamte, of Destineer Studios… and while this shouldn’t even need to be said, it does:One thing which Mac Halo naysayers tend to focus on is, even though Bungie has stated repeatedly that Halo will come to Mac, Microsoft pulls the financial strings (suggesting that it’s not for…

Xbox.com reports that according to NPDFunworld (the folks who keep track of video game sales), Halo has sold over one million copies to date… and has become the fastest million-unit seller ever for any next-gen console. (‘Next-gen console’ means PS2, GameCube, Xbox.)Statistically, this means that more than six copies of Halo: Combat Evolved have been…

Jeff Green, who wrote an editorial at Gamers.com yesterday, predicting that PC Halo would be cancelled after all, stopped by our forum to clarify his position. Seems he DOES want to see Halo on a PC – he’s just afraid that MS wants to milk the Xbox dollars as much as they can before allowing…

When Brian Josselyn, of Blackstar Productions, released ‘Halo: The Movie’, a ‘trailer’ of a ficticious Halo movie, Bungie employee Dave Candland asked, “Want a job at MS marketing? ;)” He was kidding… but Brian’s most recent production, ‘Halo: The Movie Teaser’, shows it wasn’t a fluke. If Bungie ever DOES make this movie, the advertising…

Purgatory has created some Master Chief artwork (both alone an as a poster) we’ve added all 5 variations to the Miscellaneous Art page.
