SonofMacPhisto wanted to remind people that he and CrazedOne1988 are putting together a film project… and they need your cool CTF clips. Read the post for full details – and send him FileShare links!(Louis Wu 18:24:27 UTC)

NartFOpc noticed an article over at Cracked that looks at 7 ads they think take themselves too seriously. One of the offenders is the Halo 3 Believe ad. Yeah, well…(Louis Wu 18:09:31 UTC)

A couple of montages for your viewing pleasure, courtesy of the Bungie Blog: some friends got together for the Vidmaster Annual Achievement… then put together a montage of the best bits. Also, Nv1ncible and Poisonous Slinky created their second dualtage – it’s called ‘Ignition’, and it’s a mix of MLG and non-MLG play. Go watch! (As a bonus, urk pointed out a video showing off a ‘Killiovincinfectionaire’ (Invincible, Killionaire, Perfection, all earned in one game by one player).)(Louis Wu 18:06:49 UTC)

WCG’s The Ultimate Gamer was on last night – the episode focused on Halo 3. Our forumites had some comments about the choices in the show. There are clips available on both SciFi.com (here, for example, is the final match that decided who was leaving the show this week) and WCG.com (here’s the episode page). (Louis Wu 14:41:01 UTC)

Justin Laboy pointed out a story on ESPN’s website – looks like Heath Bell, replaced Trevor Hoffman as the San Diego Padres relief pitcher, has chosen Breaking Benjamin’s ‘Blow Me Away’ (from the Halo 2 soundtrack) as the song that brings him out onto the field. Nice!(Louis Wu 14:26:28 UTC)

Laird stopped in with some disheartening news; he’s admitting defeat, and closing down Halo: Unyielding. He did provide a Word document containing the rest of the story, however… go see how it would have turned out. (He’s still planning on finishing the first 4 minutes.)(Louis Wu 14:10:18 UTC)

gunluva pointed out an article at Kotaku about the upcoming ‘Halo Encyclopedia’ coming from DK Publishing. Should be chock-full of goodies for the Halo story enthusiast! (This clarifies a post made by petin yesterday – this will NOT be a public release of the ‘Halo Bible’, but it WILL contain a large amount of background information.)(Louis Wu 14:08:41 UTC)

We missed it yesterday – but luckily, you’ve got until tomorrow morning. The 7 on the 7th list went live this month – jump in for 7v7 action on Avalanche, and a chance to grab the 7 on the 7th Achievement! (Louis Wu 13:50:45 UTC)
