The Halo SETI Marinesdig in at position #50 in the Battle of the Teams. Next on the hit list is “alt.comp.hardware.overclocking”. Their CPUs are gonna melt trying to stay ahead of us! ;)Four new recruits join the Halo community effort. A big welcome to Redhook (252 units) and Malice (107 units). Gotta love those large…

Thanks to Beamish for posting scans of the E3 Halo movie flyer and the E3 Halo game flyer. Ok we’ve seen these before but the quality of the movie flyer is better than we’ve previously seen (you can easily read the text). E3 Halo game flyer is a biggie (1.9MBs). Grab them here:E3 Halo movie…

The German GameStar site has a Special E3 Report with a number of game developers. While Bungie aren’t represented some of the pics of the developers’s are taken withGameStar’s Halo cover in the background. Nice one! :)GameStar do have a short E3 Halo report herethough.

Blam! The Halo SETI Marinestake out Brasil and enter the top 50 in the Battle of the Teams. Kudos all round on the great Halo community effort. Some big names next on the hit list. Team membership rises to 382 that’s an increase of four since yesterday. Join up today! Check out the combined processing…

Marathon’s Story has got a set of links to some great Bungie booth E3 pics at MacGamer’s Ledge. Bungie like you’ve never seen them before. Who needs booth babes when you’ve got guys like this… erm. Go check the Story page for the full set of pic links or go direct to MacGamer’s Ledge E3…

New Halo screenshot on the Voodoo5 5500 AGP box? MAK thinks so on our forums and posts this URL to a Voodoo5 5500 AGP box pic. Thanks MAK.

SoonTM seems to have gotten their hands on a trailer for the E3 trailer. (Not the trailer itself… a trailer for it.) Or something. Go take a look. (Thanks to Sibrax, for posting this at the R.net forum. Pax.

Wow, that was quick. 🙂 Vector has resubmitted his wallpaper to our Wallpaper page. Glad to have them back! Thanks to the whole BGH team for straightening all this out.

Seems we were misinformed. The policy at Battleground: Halo is NOT that its staffers can’t post artwork at other sites… it’s that they can’t post artwork with BGH identifiers at other sites. It’s unclear at this point whether vector will be resubmitting his wallpapers without the BGH URL on them… but we hope so. We…

Blam! The Halo SETI Marinesmove up one place to 51 in the Battle of the Teams. Lots of movement in the team rankings. Brasil are still ahead but only by 2 UNITS! Can the Halo team enter the top 50by tomorrow? Join the Halo community effort today! A big welcome to Admiral Darkk who joins…

Happy anniversary to Rampancy.net! The Core went live one year ago yesterday… as did our blam.bungie.org forums. Talk about blasts from the past! Has it been a whole year? Wow.

Battleground: Halo mentions a poll at the Queensland Gamers League (northeastern Australia)… what game are you most looking forward to? Halo is currently neck and neck with Tribes 2… go see if you can swing that!

Seen at R.net: Gamespot has added an Editors’ Choice Best of E3 2000 section… and Halo is on the list for Most Potent Action Game.

We had a number of nice wallpapers from vector, of Battleground: Halo, on our Wallpaper page. Apparently, the policy of Battleground: Halo is that artwork created by one of their staffers cannot be displayed on another Halo site… so we’ve been asked to pull them. (I would have thought that BG:H would have been happy…

SciFi.com (the site of the Sci-Fi channel) has put up an e3 preview report… and Halo was included. They liked it. 😉 (Thanks to Cpt. Squeky, who posted this to our forum.) Pax.

Gamersyndicate.com has a Halo preview online. No new info (they start with the text from the E3 Halo movie brochure, and move on to some basics about the gaming environment), but the presentation is pretty nice. Worth a look.

The first Halo mod team? Hmm. DwK posts to our forum about MonKeY MoD… very little info in the post or on the MonKeY MoD website, but the pic looks familiar… oh, wait. That’s my cousin. Never mind.

Halo Needs Women! According to Matt Soell in a forum post the possibility of female characters in the game has not been ruled out. Equal opportunities please. 🙂

The Halo SETI Marines are within 200 units of overtaking the Brasil team in the Club Rankings. Tomorrow? Banzif does his part, taking La Crunch Honneur, and Moomjean frogblasts over 11 competitors to be the fastest climber today. Are YOU doing your part? Check the 24 hour stats!

Halo 1st person view mode undecided as yet. The folks at Battleground Halo ask Doug Zartman the BIG QUESTION: “Will there be a 1st person view mode at all?” Doug replied:We’ve been giving it serious thought but haven’t decided on the matter yet. If we do, we’ll do it right. We try very hard not…
