Season 3 of the Halo CE Chronicles kicked off yesterday, with ‘The Valley of the Forerunners, Part 1’ – swing by the HCEC website to grab your copy. This one picks up where season 2 left off, and is the first in 11 parts. Nice scenery, and a great kickoff into the new season’s plotline.…

Player of the week this week, over at MLGPro.com, is Gandhi – a member of the number two team out of last weekend’s Nationals. Go check out what makes him tick. Thanks, 3Suns.

RedvsBlue Episode 74, ‘Right To Remain Silenced’, has been released for sponsors, a bit later than expected… but man, it was worth it. My favorite character is back… and as fun as ever. If you’re a sponsor, go grab it now. If you’re not… it should be out by Thursday or so. Thanks to spartaneric…

MLG has put up an article showing the winners from last weekend’s National Championships – lots o’ cash! Check it out. Thanks, 3Suns.

Dang, meant to get to this yesterday, forgot. Omg A Fish submitted ‘Drive-Thru’, a Tenacious D skit set to Halo, to the MPRRS – and it would have passed, except for one reviewer (who didn’t even really seem to dislike it, but gave it a dismal score anyway). It’s a tiny film (just over 6…

Se7en One let us know about a small animation he created – a Grunt, and one of the Quadwings from Delta Halo. QuickTime format, 22 mb. Check it out!

Pro-G (a british gaming site) is hosting a Halo 2 Slayer tournament on Xbox Live on March 18-19; prizes consist of Xbox and Xbox360 titles. More info can be found on this page.

Ross Mills found a UNSC Marine armor set for sale on eBay(uk). It’s not completely finished – but a bunch of it is. (I’m wondering what happened to the model’s arm…) Four days left, nobody’s bid yet.

sonik son sent us a link that’s pretty darned tangential to Halo… but Halo IS involved, so here you go. Over at MarginalRevolution.com, there’s a blog entry about a study that compared higher prices with free shipping vs lower prices with expensive shipping to see which attracted buyers faster. (Turns out we’re stupid, and will…

Swing by the website of the Professional Gamers League of America to read about the new H2O Federation. Instead of a series of (relatively) unrelated tournaments, they’re setting up a league, similar to the NFL, where teams will compete all season long. It was only a matter of time…

Over at Halomovies.org, they’ve set up a rating system; all movies they host can be rated by viewers. If you’re interested in only viewing movies others thought were great… this is your chance! Check it out.

Silent_Pea found a pretty cool image of a spray-painted MC – take a look!

Over at Bungie.net you’ll find a pretty cool story about a Cosplayer who won some awards with his Elite costume – along with cool pictures showing the costume itself, and how he pulled off the whole reverse-knee thing. Check it out! (I don’t even need to visit our forum to know that there’s a FIRST…

Jamie98s is turning out to be one of the top moviemakers in the Halo universe; I can’t remember a film he’s made that I didn’t like. His latest work, The Mombasa Massacre, blew through the MPRRS without a scratch. It’s a slightly different take on his last piece, Chaos on the Creek; this one also…

Another large batch of Dialogue snippets from Hellhawk have been added to the Halo 2 Dialogue Databank; this time, it’s 155 snippets, all Grunts and Elites. Only Brutes are left – probably tomorrow!

Foo Mo Jive lets us know that Podtacular 51 has been released – it’s Customs and Call-ins time again. Go listen!

Stuntmutt’s been seeing certain banner ads around the net recently, and it’s gotten him thinking. Everybody duck. (But not until after you check out today’s One One Se7en.)

Narcogen continues his Impressions series with a writeup of High Charity – he wasn’t thrilled with it, but he stuck it out gamely until the end. Give it a read!

rywateska is putting together a new ‘Immortal Montage’, and he submitted the trailer to the MPRRS recently. Went over quite well. It’s quite short, and you can grab it in two different form-factors; 640×428 (about 12 mb, QuickTime or WMP9) or 420×280 (about 8 mb, QuickTime or WMP9). Go watch – and then wait for…

You may or may not remember the name Midnight – but he’s been around the Halo community for quite some time, and now he’s in Fallujah with the US Armed Forces. He’s got a blog over at HushedCasket.com to keep you up-to-date on how it’s going. (This is a guy who hacked his Xbox, added…
