Hmm… that title sounds vaguely pornographic. Don’t worry – it’s not. Rockslider returned to the Dropship Turret Removal technique he played with a while back (1 | 2 | 3 | 4), discovering that the turret is rammable in mid-air, leading to some interesting fun! Take a look.(Louis Wu 21:30:23 UTC)

I got an email from Armin Mortazavi, who, with his brother, had done some filming at PAX last summer. The video product (a search for anything Halo) finally went online in December; I didn’t know about it until the email arrived. Go see what they found!(Louis Wu 19:18:20 UTC)

Interesting – Lord Zedd added Gutas to Reach’s Firefight mode, just for giggles. With no long-range attacks, the fights are not as varied as I’d expected… but they still look like they’d have added some spice to the mode! Thanks, gamerguy2002.(Louis Wu 19:10:22 UTC)

The Halo 5: Guardians Multiplayer Beta is coming to a close within the next few days and we’ve been enjoying every moment of it, but with it’s inevitable end, we begin to focus on the Master Chief Collection again and the current state of Halo. It’s been a while since we’ve touched on anything that wasn’t official news or articles specifically relating to what 343 is doing with our beloved franchise, so this week we take a look at three different articles on this week’s show. First is an article on Forbes on why people should not pre-order Halo 5: Guardains this far out. There are many good points brought up on why it’s better for the consumer and the developer. Second is from Develop with a look into the remastering of the Halo 2 Anniversary audio with Paul Lipton and how it has evolved. Over three hours of new music and 16,000 audio assets is enough to perk your ears up. Finally, an article on Kotaku brings a new video shining some light on some relics of the past with things that never made the cut for Halo: Combat Evolved and other little factoids. Did you know there was a Harpoon and Gravity Wrench in Halo at one point? We encourage you to all read through these at your leisure and discuss them in our forums.

Are you a lore junkie who couldn’t wait to read the latest installment of ‘Canon Fodder’ in the (old) Halo Bulletin? Are you sad that the feature disappeared when the Bulletin converted to a video format? Be sad no longer! According to GrimBrother One, over at Halo Waypoint, Canon Fodder is being spun off into its own blog! Swing by to read the plans, and see some new Universe entries. Oh, happy day!(Louis Wu 23:04:55 UTC)
