Exploring the codebase
gamerguy2002 has been keeping track of Lord Zedd’s modding progress – he let us know about some unused Halo 4 death messages (these are pretty funny), a pretty disturbing video showing what characters look like without faces, and a two-for-one showing off some unused assets that were left in the game. Fun stuff! (Louis Wu 18:09:47 UTC)

Goodbye to 2014 – See You Next Year!
We’re definitely ending this year on a slower note than we started it – not from a Halo news standpoint, but from a Halo news coverage standpoint. And for this, I’m really sorry. Fingers are crossed that time will become easier to find in the new year! In the meantime, enjoy the Halo 5 Beta, going on now, and from the crew here at HBO, best wishes for a fantastic 2015!(Louis Wu 21:49:45 UTC)
