MLG San Diego – Cold Storage Unveiled, Str8 Rippin Wins
The big news this weekend was the unveiling of Cold Storage, a new remake of Chill Out that Bungie brought with them to MLG San Diego. (The ‘screens’ in that story are pretty lousy – you can get a slightly better look at the map in a fan-recorded video from the event over at GameTrailers – thanks, MasterChief2829.) The jury’s still out on this one – but reaction from the event (where the only people who actually SAW the map were) is pretty positive. While you’re over at MLGPro.com, check out the San Diego Hall of Champions – congrats to Str8 Rippin, who took first place in the 4v4.(Louis Wu 11:57:54 UTC)

Bungie shows Cold Storage. Remake of Halo CE’s Chill Out.
—
by
Bungie previewed an unreleased Halo 3 map in San Diego this weekend at an MLG event. It’s named Cold Storage and is a remake of Chill Out from Halo 3.
This will certainly get the attention of old school Halo fanboys who have long been crying out for smaller slayer maps. Chill Out is certainly a good pick.
What other classic Halo maps would you like to see in Halo 3?
MLG is hosting an image gallery of the map: http://www.mlgpro.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=152

Halo Theme (Mjolnir Mix)
—
by
This is a transcription of “Halo Theme (Mjolnir Mix) “, by Martin O’Donnell and Michael Salvatori, transcribed by mike poe
It can be heard during the Scarab encounter in Halo 2’s “Metropolis” level.
Though I spent alot of time trying to get the notes right for the guitar parts, I had some trouble with the beginning section and i feel that some of the electric guitar parts throughout could sound better, so I’m open to any suggestions to make it closer to the real song
enjoy and comment
