The Tyrant recently started his latest Legendary Walkthrough – this one covers Halo Wars. He’s not thrilled about it – but he buckles down and does what’s needed to show you how to beat this game on Legendary. The first 5 levels are already online – yo…

PlayXBLA has posted a couple of screenshots from an upcoming mash-up pack for the Xbox 360 version of Minecraft – 4J Studios is adding a Halo flavor to Minecraft! Fun.(Louis Wu 19:02:55 UTC)

Yesterday, the latest Halo Bulletin went up on Halo Waypoint – you’ll find wallpaper from the Halo 5 concept art, new matchmaking details, a pretty amazing facepainter, and some cool shotgun screenshots. Give it a read! (You can read it here, too. Of c…

Yesterday, Wahrer stopped by with an audio experiment; he put together a piece he calls ‘Halo 5: Guardians – Main Menu (Mockup)’. Lots of eastern vibes in there. Go listen!(Louis Wu 14:35:23 UTC)

DHalo noticed a pretty entertaining comic on Tumble Dry Comics; anyone who’s followed Halo’s Needler through the various titles in the series will be able to relate. (Louis Wu 22:50:52 UTC)

MixMaker117, Dijabouti, HaloFanForLife, and SEspider got together to play some Halo 4 campaign on Legendary and ended up capturing some pretty funny moments. I’m pretty sure this video could use some Benny Hill music. Thanks, SEspider – go watch! (mas…

I nearly forgot to point out the latest Community Member Spotlight over at Halo Waypoint – which would be a shame, because it’s shining on our boy wonder mastrbiggy. He’s so dreamy I can almost forgive all the mean things he says about me. (Almost.) Go…

Red vs Blue Episode 4 was released yesterday – what makes a good leader? And how do you pick them? And what happens when you swallow too much spit? Watch to find out.(Louis Wu 16:34:14 UTC)

Gamecheat’s back with another AI battle – this time, it’s Halo 3 Sword Elites versus Brute Chieftans. I found it fascinating. I’m not sure how to discuss the parts I liked the best without actually giving away the overall winner, but I can tell you tha…

I ran across this cosplay pic from Kitnip Cosplay and DMacStudios recently – I was impressed! Check out the Spartans and ODSTs. And their weapons! (Louis Wu 14:47:26 UTC)

Another thing we’ve totally missed these past couple of weeks is the continuation of Red vs Blue Season 12. This series has evolved quite a bit; storytelling, music, and the combination of machinima and CGI are all quite sophisticated at this point. Ca…

Yesterday was Friday, so it was time for another Fails of the Weak – Ray and Jack looked at a bunch of bad playing (mostly on Reach). I liked the last Bullfrogs clip. Watch it on AH.com or YouTube, and say thanks to Nikko B201 for pointing it out.(Loui…

IGN has some info about the Steven Spielberg-produced Halo series coming to Xbox One – looks like it’ll be released in the same timeframe as Halo 5. That’s a lot of prep time! Thanks, Avateur.(Louis Wu 16:35:36 UTC)
