Brain cells are for sissies
Justin Gochanour, of gyeah.com, sent us pics of another LAN party – more heavy drinking, some RIDICULOUS stats (you have to check this pic out), and some fun with guns on walls. Hope these guys didn’t drive home…

Kroeger needs a leg
Shadow dropped off Chapter 7 of his Renegade Marines saga – ‘The Return Home’. I want one of those 6-tube rocket launchers… man, I bet that’s heavy. Fan Fiction is fun.

Musical goodies available again
A week ago, Team Xbox posted a package full of goodies, including a WMP Halo skin, a copy of the Halo trailer, and 3 never-before-released (on the net) Halo tracks… in WMP format. Total package size: 4.6 mb. It’s already gone off their servers. 🙁 Because the music tracks were so cool, I made room…

Danish Halo fans helps out
Thanks to Paladin, who kindly sent in a translation for our most recent Danish Halo review – seems the original (random) quote I chose was pretty inappropriate. Oh, to speak more than 5 languages!

Advertising Hi-Lynx
Two years ago, Lynx deodorant made a huge splash in the Halo community due to their outright theft of the Halo font – but the furor has died down. However, today, we received a picture of a DIFFERENT Lynx deodorant – Gravity – which uses an interesting graphical logo… these guys don’t quit. 🙂 (Thanks…

Japanese Halo site up – nice!
Nice find by protexts… The Official Japanese Halo site is up, and it’s not simply a copy of the US site (as so many others are). Nice Flash layout, nice music, good screenies (if a bit too small). Now if only I could read Japanese…

More Tricks, but no answers
pete_the_duck has gone a to a couple of places not yet documented – one on Halo, the other on Truth and Reconciliation. You can check his website for pictures from the locations… but as of right now, he’s not willing to share his techniques for reaching them, so don’t ask us. 🙂 Update: he’s explained……

NTSC and PAL – no looky, no touchy
A quick reply by Matt Soell to a request for clarification of the PAL/NTSC situation (‘Can they play nicely together?’) turned into a veritable firestorm on several forums, here and in Europe. (Most of the unhappiness can be explained by my lack of understanding of the answer I was acting as messenger for…) Matt stepped…

EOF vid finds a home
Back in late February, customsex sent word that Eleet Ops Faction had a new video for the masses – it showed how to get down from the beginning of the Maw (a subject which was pretty hot at that moment), and a bug in Two Betrayals in which the death of one co-op player meant…

Links, Links, who’s got the links?
Link action – halo24.de is now listed correctly on our Links page, and Silent Halo has been added. German Halo action and… some rather strange pictures, respectively. Additionally, we got word from Cal that he’s started a new Xbox portal site, to help people find Xbox-related sites. We decided a long time ago that we…
