Lego Madness
Wow – we’ve mentioned Saber-Scorpion before – he’s been building Halo-styled Lego creations for years. A few days ago, though, he posted a couple of pages full of Spartan armor permutations and weapons… and man, they’re amazing. Go look (page one | page two). Thanks to HHRB for the heads-up.(Louis Wu 09:43:38 UTC)

Gears of War PC gone gold! Release date is November 6.

Gears of War PC has officially gone gold and will be released November 6.
Thankfully, this probably won’t end up being one of the most disappointing, lametastic ports ever (Halo 2 Vista, ugh).
If only I had the PC power to run it!

Do it again. I dare you.

This file name won’t help you.
trigger119 let us know that CROSSFIRE has released a teaser for an upcoming Halo 3 machinima project; there’s very little in it to tell you what’s coming, but based on past work, I’d say it’s one worth waiting for! Swing by Gaming TV to download it.(Louis Wu 21:06:02 UTC)

Spartan Armor – outfit the whole squad
Hawty “eBaying better than you since 1995” McBloggy has written up a guide that lists all the Spartan armor currently available on eBay, just in time for Halloween. (I was interested to see pictures of Chris Bryan’s armor and a couple of Nightmare Armor suits, all with identical text from the same seller – a little strange…) If you’ve left your Halloween planning until now… go look!(Louis Wu 20:53:11 UTC)

Sierra 117 Cutscenes Up
We’ve added the two cutscenes from Sierra 117 to our Halo 3 Cutscene Library – go ahead and grab ’em. As a heads-up, it looks like high-res versions of these (at least 720p) should be available in the not-too-distant future!(Louis Wu 17:41:55 UTC)

Stop Light.
What might be the most irritating part of Halo 3 has been skewered by Stuntmutt in today’s One One Se7en. If you like this part (after the 25th run-through)… well, the joke’s on you.(Louis Wu 17:05:38 UTC)

Live Halo in Holland
DHalo found footage of a Halo piece being played at ‘Games in Concert’ in Holland last November. He describes it as ‘unpleasant’ at first – I’d strongly disagree with that. Listen and decide for yourself, though.(Louis Wu 16:54:32 UTC)

Not with a bang, but… well, yes, a bang.
Narcogen has taken a long hard look at how Halo 3 ends – and at how good a job Bungie’s done in tying up loose ends. It’s a pretty interesting read! (It is, of course, full of spoilers.)(Louis Wu 16:26:52 UTC)

Tied the Leader has set up a pretty cool web tool that should help take the place of clans… for their friends and allies. Read the details on their website. Thanks, as usual, to XerxdeeJ for stopping by with the news – this one has the potential to be HUGE.(Louis Wu 15:07:37 UTC)

VGL London – a Recap
Looks like the Video Games LIve show in London a couple of nights ago was a smashing success. VVM pointed out a pretty decent YouTubed copy of the Halo piece at the end, and DHalo found a clip of Marty chanting the monk part of the original theme. Awesomeness! (Louis Wu 13:23:37 UTC)

Confetti
