xianoa’s Gallery of Wallpapers
xianoa wrote to pointe out a gallery of Halo 3 screenshot-based wallpapers; swing by and see what’s there! (My favorite is actually not on that page – it’s in this Bungie.net forum thread, and the final iteration is gorgeous.) (Louis Wu 14:04:12 UTC)

Halo Wars LE Packshot
Ensemble released a packshot of the Halo Wars Limited Edition contents recently (800×533, 106k); you can take a look if you’re interested in what’s inside the box. (Because the assets they released allow it, I’m also going to post a ginormous version – 4608×3072 – that actually allows you to read all the text visible, including the small print on the DVD. It’s 1.6 mb, though, so only grab it if you must know the copyright dates of Dolby Laboratories’ trademarks.) (Louis Wu 14:02:03 UTC)

2008 Best Of Halo Awards
—
by
Hawty McBloggy has put up the nominations for the 2008 Best of Halo awards, divided into ten categories, over at HawtyMcBloggy.com and Rampancy’s been nominated, in the best resource website category. Up against the 800lb. gorilla that is HBO one can’t expect to do more than score a point here or there, but the real honor is being nominated. The site category also includes (relative) newcomers with fantastic material like Ascendant Justice, and the Forge Hub. Do we have to pick just one?

A few weeks ago, BlueNinja mashed up some Halo cutscene clips and recreated the latest Star Trek trailer. Today, he’s back, with higher-quality clips, and editing tweaks – he gives you Halo Trek 2.0, which I enjoyed more than the original. Go watch!(Louis Wu 19:44:09 UTC)

Pwn You Again
Max Capo told us that he’s created a Miley Cyrus parody – he’s redone the song ‘See You Again’ as a Halo 3 montage called ‘Pwn You Again’. (I had to do a YouTube search for the original to compare.) His singing could use a little work – but it’s not a bad effort! Take a look.(Louis Wu 14:18:44 UTC)

GameDaily’s put together a list of the Top 50 Hottest Game Babes – and yes, Cortana makes the list. (To GD’s credit, the picture they use is not exploitative in the least. Then again, she’s only at #36…) Thanks, Morpheus. (Louis Wu 14:15:25 UTC)
