Catching Bungie? mad.max calls on your support for the Halo SETI team. Enlist today!

Halo confirmed for Playstation2 according to Next Generation listing. Good news for PS2 owners.

Halo: the darkside to merge with HaloNews to form “killer site” says Kevin Fry (StrobeShock).

A strange submission for our Miscellaneous Art page. You be the judge.

Our theories page returns. Thanks to the back-up Gods.

Jason’s in Paris? Hmm… was the demo the same as the MWNY one, we wonder? (Thanks, Max.) Pax.

Halo demo pics from the Paris Apple Expo courtesy of the Macintosh News Network can be seen here and here. Demo sure looks the same. Thanks Anaphiel.

Yes Wirehead hosed our Theories page and nobody noticed. Anyone got a backup? Pax.

Screenshots page finally updated with the latest Halo screenshots. Pax.

Is Halo movie fever spreading or what? Pax.

Aliens? They’re out there! The Halo SETI team clocks up a total CPU time of 2.19 years but can they catch the Bungie team? Join the crusade to beat Bungie! 😉 Pax.

“When people play HALO, one of the first things they’ll notice is our insane attention to graphics detail.” says Bungie’s Jason Jones in a Sharkey Extreme article.

Forums are finally moved to a bigger machine. 250 posts on the main page, and the Archived Messages link works now. Enjoy! (Let us know about any bugs you find… there were a couple of glitches in the move.)

3Dfx is making a new compression technology available for free in an effort to answer S3’s S4 compression methods, giving Halo yet another rendering possibility when the time comes. Thanks, Steve, for the tip to this IGN PC story. Pax.

What’s going on? In the last 24 hours, the Halo SETI Team has submitted 39 units… but the Bungie team has dropped in 104! (Of course, someone new just joined their team… but that’s no excuse!) Come on, people… we won’t catch them that way…

Well, we can’t expect miracles, I guess. Our mailserver is down till tomorrow, so this comes from the Core: A new Halo website is on the streets, goes by the name of Hola Halo Communications. It’s early yet… Pax.

Not too much going on, yet… enjoy the weekend.

Eek. Sometime since our last SETI update, the Bungie SETI Team pulled away from the Halo SETI Team… 1264 units to 878. (The Halo team picked up a bunch of new members, though… they’re up to 42 now, to Bungie’s 24, so things might happen soon.) Keep it going!

I’m really sorry… I updated this yesterday, but forgot to mention it here. Aaron Davies submitted new desktops for your perusal… Wallpaper page updated. Sorry, Aaron.

Goodness. Abducted by aliens, all of us. Yeah, that’s it. We’re back, though… we think. Very sorry for the downtime. (What are these little knobs coming out of our necks?)
