Hawty McBloggy noticed a custom Halo 3/Star Wars action figure for sale on eBay – current bid is $14.99. (I mean, really, it’s just a McFarlane figure with some horns glued on, and a felt cape, and some custom paint… but hey, how often are you gonna find one of these?)(Louis Wu 18:53:10 UTC)

MR-T has upgraded his browser-based Halo game – lots of changes. Swing by the site for details!(Louis Wu 18:49:43 UTC)

Sigafoos let us know that The Riot 96 is online at Second-Foundation.net. 23 minutes, 9 mb, community news, video stuff, map discussion. Go listen (and watch!).(Louis Wu 17:21:25 UTC)

Didn’t take long for folks to find some cool glitches in the Legendary maps. (I probably should cruise through the High Impact Halo forums to see more – but this showed up in my mailbox, which is always easier.) Over at GlitchBlog.com, there are a couple of videos from the ProjectModGaming crew in which they’ve glitched their way out of Avalanche (not in pan-cam mode, either) and Ghost Town. The first one, especially, is pretty cool (though I’m not sure I understand what they did).(Louis Wu 17:16:39 UTC)

GhettoMole continues his rapid progress on his Scout helmet – it’s now painted his standard Multiplayer primary color orange. Go check out the latest pics!(Louis Wu 17:03:52 UTC)

Week 4 of Grifball Explosion was recorded Friday night – I managed to miss posting a note about it yesterday. It contains an interview with Andy the Bomb, the standard Q&A with the Commissioner, and community news from the voice of Someday-Night Grifball. You can go listen at Talkshoe. Thanks, Quikthnkr.(Louis Wu 16:45:58 UTC)

AnTi PRO, of Arm the Flag, has done a machinima-style interview of KSI Freedom 6, the leader and creator of Charity Gamers. Go watch to learn how these guys got started, and what they’re doing to help cure cancer! In addition to both sites mentioned above, the video can also be seen on YouTube, and HaloTube.(Louis Wu 15:53:36 UTC)

Elnea’s posted Episode 144 of Halo Action Figure Theater – see how many eggs you can find in that last panel!(Louis Wu 15:20:07 UTC)

Wow. XBmaster has become the first person to complete Halo 3 in a single run, without dying. It’s on easy, and it took him 77 minutes (well, and 3 seconds, but we’ll forgive him those three). You can watch it over at High Speed Halo. (It’s also available as Fileshare-hosted film clips, so you can use Bungie’s timestamps to confirm that this was done in one sitting.) Thanks, NOKYARD.(Louis Wu 15:17:44 UTC)

ZDSvideos let us know that Zombie Death Squad is a new thriller/action machinima; they’ve already posted a teaser. Go watch! (They’re always looking for help, so if you like what you see, join ’em.) (Louis Wu 15:10:11 UTC)

McNealy let us know that he’s put together a “ripoff of the Bungie Humpday” – it’s called Beat the Yeti, and the first week’s competition was exactly that (his gamertag is heavenlyyeti). If you’d like to participate, there’s contact info at the end of the post.(Louis Wu 15:08:23 UTC)

Rockslider’s back, this time showing how you can get 10 marines together on the beach on The Covenant… and then do nasty things to them. Bad Cyborg!(Louis Wu 15:03:52 UTC)

ZZoMBiE13 was very nice about it – but I screwed up, and forgot to post yesterday’s Another Halo Comic Strip. Which is too bad, because it’s pretty darned insightful. Well, I guess it’s okay, because you can read it now! So go read it now, and become aware of one of the lesser-known dangers of Avalanche.(Louis Wu 14:18:08 UTC)

Gravemind has written what he calls ‘The World’s Longest Halo 3 Review‘. The short version: “not bad, could have been better.” Go read why.(Louis Wu 18:03:55 UTC)

UNSC Trooper has updated the Halo Story timeline with info from the Halo 3 game (and some ancillary sources). Check it out!(Louis Wu 17:50:05 UTC)

bigroot posted a short clip of a fun triple-kill he had with a trip mine – if he hadn’t thrown the grenade that put the fully-loaded hog on top of that mine, it would have just been a randomly lucky set of kills… but his own grenade made it justice. Swing by YouTube to watch.(Louis Wu 17:42:37 UTC)

DigitalPh33r has posted Arby ‘n’ the Chief Episode 8, over at Machinima.com – it’s a look at the Legendary Map Pack, and it’s got some funny moments. (Thanks, SPARTAN 294.) If you swing by his blog, you’ll see other news – he’s done with It’s a Wonderful Live, and the series finale for Deus Ex Machina is getting delayed until it’s as good as he can make it. (Currently, he’s shooting for ‘late May’.) There’s other news, as well – check it out if you like his work!(Louis Wu 17:40:19 UTC)

RVideo noticed another Blackout Jumping video over at Halo3Forum – put together by JalapenoZ and friends, it includes a few jumps not seen in Sain7’s entry yesterday. Take a look!(Louis Wu 17:34:04 UTC)
