A Kiss On The Hand…
Stuntmutt has a holiday-themed One One Se7en for you today – for those keeping track, it has a Halo spoiler in it. (If you’re reading One One Se7en, and you’ve never played ANY of the Halo games, but you PLAN to… well, I’m not sure we should be protecting you from spoilers, but…)(Louis Wu 18:17:53 UTC)

Major Nelson has been playing Gears of War PC

However, he made a blog post suggesting that there are new gamerpics available for Games for Windows – Live users. Sorry Major, but those gamerpics were released in an August update to Games for Windows – Live. More reasons why you need someone reporting GfW-Live news.
Here’s looking forward to playing Gears of War on the PC. Hopefully the GfW-Live revolution will begin.

The Wicked Ending
Z let us know about The Wicked Ending, a huge (270 mb, 14 minutes long) Halo 3 montage from Hysteria and Eli; it’s full of multikills (Killtrocities and up), lots of FFA against MLG pros, and pretty nice editing to boot. If you’ve been missing some Halo 2 montage action, check this out.(Louis Wu 16:57:31 UTC)

Last Year’s Transport
Elnea, shameless in her misuse of a numbering system that wasn’t designed for her ramblings, gives us Halo Action Figure Theater 98.74: Last Year’s Transport. Fantastic use of props… (Louis Wu 14:33:22 UTC)

Inside Halo – Episode 1
Wow, nice. SodaGod has started a Halo news show over at Machinima.com; yes, these have been done before, but not with audio this good, or with SG’s whacky brand of humor. The video information listed is pretty much entirely wrong; the downloaded video is 48 mb, not 37, and the running time is 5 minutes, not 8:28 – but it’s a great watch. You can also snag it on YouTube if you don’t want to download it. Thanks, Adam Kovic.(Louis Wu 10:50:44 UTC)

Cover Art Recreations
Wow, nice work – KidWitPotential, over at Bungie.net, recreated the original Halo Combat Evolved box art using Halo 3, with a friend – and then they did the Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack art. If the screenshots disappear, we have local copies (Halo CE | Multiplayer Map Pack). Thanks, gijake.(Louis Wu 10:02:02 UTC)

Date-specific coolness
Awesome – Walshicus noticed some tombstones on Valhalla, apparently tied to the date today (it is Halloween, after all) – in case the FileShare links he posted disappear, we’ve downloaded local copies (one | two). RVideo also took a pic.(Louis Wu 09:48:08 UTC)

Halo 3 Cutscenes: The Ark (and a fix)
Today’s update for the Halo 3 Cutscene Library contains the cutscenes from the level ‘The Ark’ – but it also contains a cleaned-up version of the closing cutscene for ‘The Storm’. A number of people noticed that there was overlapping music in the first version we uploaded, so Cody kindly went back and re-recorded the cutscene. He had to do it a LOT of times; it seems that overlap is common. The version up now has a tiny bit of overlap, but it’s way better than it was. Enjoy – and enjoy the Ark scenes!(Louis Wu 22:40:36 UTC)

Arby – all wrapped up
This is actually quite cool – The More Deluded created a sculpture of the Arbiter… in wire. Artistic!(Louis Wu 22:26:26 UTC)

FS2H is Back
Devrous stopped by for the first time in a while – looks like he had a pretty rough summer! He’s back on track with his Freespace 2: Halo total conversion, and has a new website online. Take a look!(Louis Wu 22:17:44 UTC)

Playlist of the Living Dead
Last Friday’s Bungie Weekly Update hinted at fun changes to the playlist roster around Halloween. Swing by Bungie.net right now for full details – they’re putting up an Infection-based playlist for 27 hours, starting tonight at midnight (PST). Full details (including ways you can use this information to get some of the harder-to-grab achievements out there, and neat tricks for downloading the gametypes for future use) are in the interview with Ferrex. Thanks, ViralSyris.(Louis Wu 17:52:01 UTC)

Going behind the scenes of the Covenant
It’s clearly Joe Staten day (not surprising, since it’s the day Contact Harvest is officially released) – we got word that GameTap has an interview with him, as well. Well, Part 1 of an interview, anyway. It’s pretty meaty already – and there is more coming! Thanks, Jared Rea.(Louis Wu 17:46:07 UTC)
