Heh – noticed this over at the Battleground: Halo forums – someone’s gone and created a Halo Movie poster. Nice work!

Brian Towne has mirrored the newest music video, since Angelfire seems to have closed down the original site. You can now find it here, at mythica.org. Thanks, Brian!

DT_Spike snagged the images from the OXM scan we put up yesterday, and did some airbrushing, a little blurring, some editing… came up with a pretty slick mural (almost 2000 pixels wide). Check it out in our Miscellaneous Art section.

Another chapter from Gasmask comes in – Halo: A Strange Tale (Part 5) is posted to our Fan Fiction section. Marathon connections continue… and now here come the Pathways.

Apologies for the lack of posting – huge amounts of time have been sucked up fixing hardware problems. Yesterday, a note from Senator32 came in – yet another music video has been posted. This one is made up from existing clips (rather than newly-recorded material) – the E3 2000 movie, the Gamestock 2001 movie, and…

Recently, a contest being run by the Official Xbox Magazine was mentioned on our forum. We were going to hold off on posting the article it came from (until the Press Scans section was completed)… but the contest ends in a month, so it seems to make more sense to put it up now. The…

Triplex Virus writes to let us know that a new Halo site has come online – Random Vector is devoted to tricks, hacks, and wishes for the mythical Halo 1.5. Check ’em out for some fun pics!

Thanks to Brian Towne, who has mirrored both the large version (33 MB) and the small version (16 MB) of Phear X’s Halo music video (this is the Silent Cartographer film, set to Rob Zombie’s Dragula) at Mythica.org. Check ’em out, if you didn’t get ’em via Hotline!

Another Gameplay Tip – it’s common knowledge that the pair of Banshees on the natural bridge on the Assault on the Control Room level are worth grabbing… but now you have access to a short video showing you what is probably the fastest CONSISTENT way of doing so. (Yes, you can run out there and…

Another pair of stories have found their way into our mailbox – Albino Joe sends us an interesting viewpoint on a contentious portion of the Halo story (don’t read this if you’re not up for spoilers), and Gasmask sends in part 4 of his Strange Tale saga. Check ’em both out (along with almost 250…

Walkthroughs: Neogamer has updated his Halo FAQ/Walkthrough to version 0.9 (it’ll be bumped to v1.0 when he finishes his Multiplayer stuff) – it’s available at GameFAQs, among other places. Also at GameFAQs (same URL, even) is a new Walkthrough by R.K. Raja – it contains most of the info from the Halo manual, plus a…

Phear X has created another music video, and is looking for hosting, as well. It’s pretty standard Halo gameplay (there’s some fun stuff at the end) set to Rob Zombie’s ‘Dragula’. While I’m loath to discourage new creative material, this video has a few issues; It’s pretty big (there are two flavors, a 33 meg…

Another shout-out to genohunter – he’s dropped off a pretty positive 6-page Halo review from the January 2002 issue of Joypad, a French Console mag. Yes, it’s in French. Check it out in our (soon to be finished… hopefully) Press Scans section. (Okay, it’s true – it’s the only article in the new format. They’re…

For those who haven’t noticed, the Halo Story page has finally kicked into high gear. (Blame me – they were waiting on some scripting work.) The submissions have been piling up,but they’re beginning to pare down that backlog! Check it out, and add your own speculation!

genohunter points out a pair of French Halo reviews – one from Consoles-France.com (posted on Christmas day, of all days), the other from GameTeam Xbox. Both were quite positive – 95% and 9.5/10, respectively. These have been added to our Reviews database.

Fanatic drops off a swirly, digital image for your desktop – you’ll find it in our Wallpaper section.

Psyrixx writes to let us know that The Psyjnir Complex has a new hotline server – you can find it at 216.229.182.74. No login/password needed… check it out! Update: Geez, guess I should read ALL my mail. The Halo Music Video released yesterday can now be found on this Hotline server – if the other…

After a few months of waiting for new artwork, Chris Cox has decided to submit the next two chapters of his ‘The Wanderers’ series – you can read them separately, here and here, or you can read the whole series in one shot. Don’t forget to leave him feedback! The Fan Fiction page continues to…

Eep – new poll at Bungie.net, and we missed the start! ‘What is your favorite section of the Halo Tru7h and Recon site?’ Go vote! (Only 100 folks have, so far…)

Thanks to Mark Levin, who’s overhauled our FAQ – there are still a few questions to add, but the info, by and large, is very up-to-date. You’ll also find that there’s quite a difference between the spoiler and non-spoiler versions of the FAQ – for those who haven’t played Halo, and want to experience it…
