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!

That would be a tough name to go through life with.

He ain’t got time to bleed.
TDSpiral stopped by with a whole new way of seeing Oonsk. I think Halopedia might be his first target… (Louis Wu 15:12:38 UTC)

Halo Effect 2 Launch Trailer

AH: Assassin's Creed 2 DLC Date
Ubisoft tweeted the official release date for the first Assassin’s Creed 2 DLC today, which is very exciting. “Battle of Forli” will drop on January 28th, for 320 MS points (and a similar price for PS3), but what I can’t find is any mention of Achievements. I think it’s awesome that it’s priced so cheaply, but it also has me a little worried. DLC that cheap rarely has Achievements attached to it. If anyone hears anything, please let us know in the comments to this post.

Vintage Fisticuffs: The Grand Canyon
If you’re over at Halo Waypoint to check out Midnight in the Heart of Midlothian, Part 2 (don’t miss it), there’s a new feature, as well: Vintage Fisticuffs, a series of videos that will look back at some of the epic battles in Halo’s campaigns. First up: The Grand Canyon, the battle on Two Betrayals leading up to the destruction of the second pulse generator. What a great idea, Waypoint! It’s all nicely narrated (and played, one would assume) by fan-turned-Waypoint employee Vociferous. Check it out! Thanks, Morpheus.(Louis Wu 19:52:37 UTC)

Check out ‘Timelapse: War Torn’ (be sure to click through for the full-size, 5215×2302 pixel monster). As Marty might say… “lots of people die.”(Louis Wu 19:51:47 UTC)
