Urrrrrkkkkkkkk….
Goodies this morning on the Bungie Blog:- Stop-Motion Snake: I thought this was pretty darned cool. scott14755 recreated a game of ‘Snake’ in Forge, via stop-motion photography. (Well, screenshotography.) I loved it.
- Halotech.org is streaming gameplay on Mythic Maps for folks who don’t have their own to play on.
- Skillz Like AI whipped up an artistic and restive display on Foundry… restive, that is, until you get hit. Then it’s rather explosive. Nice work!
Time to look for our own content again… Update: two more from Bungie.net (is it time to retire?)… MLD (Major League Driving) Top 10 #3 is out – this one focuses on Warthogs. How bad does a gunner feel when his DRIVER picks up a Vehicular Manslaughter (10 splatters without dying) in the time that the gunner takes down 3 enemies? And a new Average Joe interview is up – this time with Predator5791 (who I was SURE had already done one of these, but I’m guessing I was just misremembering the Screenshot Artist Spotlight or maybe even Hawty McBloggy’s interview). Go see what makes him do what he does!(Louis Wu 18:32:01 UTC)

Assembly… boring?
PC Magazine put up a review of the Mythic maps today… and while they loved Sandbox, they found Orbital and Assembly to be disappointing and tiresome. I guess it takes all kinds!(Louis Wu 17:08:26 UTC)

Wonder if he paid full price?
Schedonnardus went to his local Gamestop last night in College Station, Texas, and ran into a Spartan-clad fan with a Brute Spiker. I dunno… the salesguy looks a little intimidated… (Louis Wu 14:51:42 UTC)

Hawty’s Goodies
Hawty McBloggy has a couple of goodies for you today – she’s put together a set of eight Halo-themed 360 mods (some are great, some are awful, some are just plain funny), and she’s uncovered a true Halo transformer on eBay – it’s a Warthog that transforms to a Spartan (well… sort of a Spartan). Check it out!(Louis Wu 14:50:05 UTC)

Pod TV Campaign Runthrough – The Covenant
After discovering Truth’s plan to activate the Halos, you must breach the barrier he has activated and stop him. As you make your way to the first tower, you encounter heavy defenses that you can take out with your Spartan Laser. Make your way up to the first tower and deactivate the tower. Meanwhile, the elites take out the second tower, and Johnson is pinned down trying to get the third. You must head back to the beach and grab a Hornet and fight your way through the arial defenses to the third tower. After deactivating the third tower, flood-infested High Charity comes through the portal and starts to rain down on the Ark. You must fight your way back down through the flood and meet up with marines ready to breach the barrier. After taking out the two Scarabs, you are joined by the flood to stop Truth from activating the Ark. After doing so, the flood turn against you and you must make it out alive. After escaping the flood, Guilty Spark reveals the replacement Halo for the one destroyed in Halo 1. There are three terminals on this map: one in each tower, and don’t forget the Thunderstorm Skull.
