Heh – Maluu and MrOllie are back to their old Trick-Jumping ways, with a JumpTactics entry into the MLG Pro Film Festival Contest. It’s short, and it makes extensive use of tweaked damage settings… but it’s beautiful. Go watch. Thanks to RVideo for the heads-up.(Louis Wu 14:33:17 UTC)

Wow. Ducain pointed out this newspost at High Impact Halo – seems a bunch of crazy HIH tricksters figured out a way to get a vehicle into the Index Chamber in Halo 2’s Quarantine Zone. If you’re thinking “yeah, so?” read the explanation of how this came about in grumpy’s post. That’s some pretty serious…

Another Halo Comic Strip shows that Chief’s got more than one talent up his sleeve…(Louis Wu 19:05:55 UTC)

Gah. I hate mornings that get split up. I nearly missed the Tied the Leader update – XerxdeeJ whined mightily about the SWAT playlist (c’mere, boy, I have some lead for your noggin), a TTL-based Xbox 360 theme for a contest has been highlighted, more cool panoramas have been posted, and there’s even some CoD4…

The third map in the Legendary DLC pack has been announced over on Bungie.net – Blackout is a straight-up remake of Lockout. (For all you people screaming that this was going to be Lockout – you were right. Doesn’t make the faked magazine cover any more real, however…) Paul Russell, Dan Miller, Blake Low and…

It’s Adam Grumbo Day, I guess. One of his suits of Master Chief armor is back up on eBay (the original buyer has decided to resell). Buy it Now price is $7500 (what he originally paid for it), but it’s up for best offer, as well. Thanks to Mid7night, who found this on the 405th…
