  • Halo on PS3 the Easy Way

    Wow. Some guy gutted a PS3, and filled it with the innards from an Xbox 360… he’s calling it a PS360, and it’s pretty much the only way you’ll ever play Halo 3 on a PS3. Me? I’m wondering why you’d trash a $400 box to fill it with a $200 box… Thanks, Buttskunk.(Louis Wu…

  • Rocket Race Is For Noobs

    New song from Bryan Simon! I’m not positive… but I don’t think he likes Rocket Race too much. Funny stuff – if you just want the mp3, you can grab it from our server here (2.6 mb).(Louis Wu 14:31:20 UTC)

  • Halo Community Live – Happening NOW

    I’d meant to post a reminder for the Halo Community Live event happening over on Mogulus earlier today… but time got away from me. It started an hour ago – but it’s still going on now. Swing by to watch the end (or if you’re reading this in the morning, watch it On Demand).(Louis Wu…

  • Top 10 Halo 3 Sticks: Episode 18

    Anoj has posted his final Top 10 video of the year – Episode 18 is Top 10 Sticks, and I think it’s worth reading Hawty McBloggy’s commentary before watching. I thought #5 was pretty funny, myself.(Louis Wu 14:06:54 UTC)

  • Halo Wars LE Packshot

    Ensemble released a packshot of the Halo Wars Limited Edition contents recently (800×533, 106k); you can take a look if you’re interested in what’s inside the box. (Because the assets they released allow it, I’m also going to post a ginormous version – 4608×3072 – that actually allows you to read all the text visible,…

  • Halo Trek 2.0

    A few weeks ago, BlueNinja mashed up some Halo cutscene clips and recreated the latest Star Trek trailer. Today, he’s back, with higher-quality clips, and editing tweaks – he gives you Halo Trek 2.0, which I enjoyed more than the original. Go watch!(Louis Wu 19:44:09 UTC)
