So, we sort of wanted to give people a taste for how the new maps played – there are already a few films around the net showing them off, but gameplay on the ones I’ve seen leaves something to be desired. I figured, we had fun during the Humpday challenge – I could just convert…

naveeda found a video created by puddin, over at the 2old2play forums, showing off a very nicely composed flag capture – great music, great angles. The footage was captured off a TV, which makes it less crisp than some would like – but it’s absolutely watchable. Nice job! Go watch.(Louis Wu 13:23:10 UTC)

The last couple of attendees to Bungie’s Legendary map press event posted their stories late Friday – I never got around to recognizing them. Check out Mr Sark’s interview with Brian Jarrard at G4TV, and IGN’s Hands-On. If you missed the first two batches, they’re here and here. (Louis Wu 13:17:07 UTC)

Hellhawk created a small vid for entertainment during intermission at a movie contest – it should make you smile. Go watch! (Louis Wu 13:06:29 UTC)

RVideo dropped off a single panorama yesterday – it’s pretty cool. Check out the Artifact… moments before the jump.(Louis Wu 13:05:03 UTC)

Renovatio Music has a video tutorial to help you play Unforgotten on a piano. (The link goes to Part 2 – I couldn’t find a direct link anywhere to Part 1, but if you scroll down to the bottom of the page, it’s the last video on the right.) Looks pretty useful, if you’re trying…

Jordan117 bought the Audio Book version of Contact Harvest – and realized after the fact that he’d missed the post-epilogue section of the book – which was sad, because it’s a powerful ending to the story itself. He decided to transcribe the ending, for others in his situation. (If you haven’t read the book yet,…

Hawty McBloggy noticed that McFarlane Toys will be providing a cool gamer picture pack, and a dashboard theme, for your LIVE decor – and both are free. Nice-looking stuff!(Louis Wu 20:16:29 UTC)

A few days ago, Flinet posted some renders of a Halo pistol he’s been working on – we managed to miss the forum post. He followed up today with an email – so go look!(Louis Wu 20:12:45 UTC)

Over at Ascendant Justice, vociferous takes a look at multiplayer. Typically in-depth and thorough. Thanks, Jironimo.(Louis Wu 15:37:56 UTC)

Sniper2477 stopped by to announce Marathon Man – “A New Beginning”, the latest episode of his ongoing machinima. I had a little trouble with the story, and one gratuitously silly scene, but otherwise a fine effort.(Louis Wu 15:37:36 UTC)

J23 noticed that It’s a Wonderful Live Episode 3 has been posted – slower and more rambling than earlier episodes, but still with its standard rants at LIVE silliness. (Louis Wu 15:37:15 UTC)

Quikthnkr has been really busy with Grifball stuff – there’s a video showing you how NOT to play Grifball, a promotional video explaining how Someday-Night Grifball will work, and the recording of the first run-through of an actual GAME of Someday-Night Grifball. (This is a spectator version of the sport.) Go check it all out!(Louis…
