All REQ Halo 5 Assassinations
Our forum denizen bryan newman took the time to film the assassinations in Halo 5 and combine them into one big video.

Let’s Play Myth Co-op #10 Out of the Barrier
We’re playing the next of Bungie’s famous games, the Real Time Tactics fantasy wargame, Myth. Set in a mysterious land of cyclical war and destruction, Myth lets you command a ragtag army in a desperate battle against the forces of the Fallen Lords.
Alric rescued from his prison, the five champions must now escape with him out of the desert, past the forces of Sinis the shade.
Also, this episode introduces the high definition tagset, Myth Myth HD Total Conversion v1,3 by Renwood, which provides higher definition units.
Due to the tireless work of many community members over the years, the Myth engine has been modernized to work on current operating systems, although you’ll still need a copy of the game’s data files to play. Check Ebay.
For the engine itself as well as texture enhancements, go to Project Magma:
There’s also multiplayer metaserver available for competitive carnage:
A bunch of other Myth-related downloads are available at The Tain:
Intro and outro Music “Into the Breach” by Martin O’Donnell and Michael Salvatori from Myth The Fallen Lords.
Myth developed by Bungie Software Corporation, currently trademark owned by Take Two.
