Robots get you fired.
Not sure how we missed this – but GameInformer put up a second article a few days ago with an in-depth interview with Marty O’Donnell. (It’s matched up with the Reach Score video we mentioned last week.) It’s a pretty interesting read! Go take a look.(Louis Wu 11:36:50 UTC)

Gamereactor Plays Halo: Reach
The Reach content embargo ends today, January 25 – and Sweden got to that date long before the US. Over at NeoGAF, Syringe pointed out coverage by Swedish gaming site Gamereactor – the text is in Swedish (though Google will translate… kind of), but the pictures are understandable in any language. There’s concept art, screenshots we’ve never seen, and environment art (and images from the reporter’s trip to Bungie’s offices, as well) – go take a look! (A thread on our forum has already picked out some of the juicier tidbits…) Update: DJ Lars has translated the first half of the article – go check out a much more readable version! (Thanks, DJ Lars!)(Louis Wu 11:04:39 UTC)

Be a Man
Asian Inferno sent us a link to a video he created in 2006, and uploaded to YouTube before Halo 3 was released – it sets Halo cutscene action to a song from the Mulan soundrack. To my surprise, it holds up reasonably well! However, there’s something really disturbing about watching Sgt. Johnson singing with Donny Osmond’s voice… (Louis Wu 11:00:22 UTC)

EV Warthog
Chlazza got a Remote Controlled Warthog – but was unhappy with the power setup. So he rewired it to use lithium-polymer batteries. Swing by his site for full details – all that thing needs is a mini-LAAG! (If, for whatever reason, we break Chlazza’s site, we’ll put up a mirror.)(Louis Wu 21:46:54 UTC)

Around The Ring – Episode 14: Left 4 Dead 2: Dead Centre Campaign Show
Download | Shownotes
Well, this episode finally came out, and for once it’s not entirely Dust Storm’s fault. He got upset when he heard a few swear words I missed in editing, then had to spend a few days in the closet before asking me to fix it. Exams and other things happened which prevented recording, and then more things slowed the editing. But never mind that, it’s out now! Joining me on the show is my old co-host Dust Storm, Funnyboy from the community, and your all time favourite CrazyCommie. This episode we talk about the Left 4 Dead 2 campaign Dead Centre, Dust Storm kicks up a cuss storm, and CrazyCommie drops out half way through. The episode clocks in at just under two hours, so there’s lots of fun stuff to listen to. I couldn’t find a song long enough to cover the bloopers, or any good loops. So you just have 16 minutes of straight up silliness.Disclamer: There are a lot of disclamers.
Enjoy!
