    In Halo 3 it should say “Toasty” when we get a headshot with the sniper!

    Do you want Dan Forden, the sound designer from Mortal Kombat to yell “Toasty” at the bottom corner of the screen when you get a head shot with the sniper? Got a specific idea for a game type, weapon, gameplay feature, map location, multiplayer option, or something else? Or maybe you want to tell us what you don’t want to see in the game? Let us know, so we can talk about it on the podcast! Who knows, Bungie might even be listening. Just click the submit news and tips link on the right side of the page. And please try to steer clear of the top 10 things people ask for. Get creative!

    What are your ideas or wishes for Halo Wars?

    halowars.com talks about the new Halo RTS coming soon from Ensemble Studios. What cool new things did you se in the trailer? What do you want to see in this game, and what do you not want to see? Are you as excited about this game as we are?!

    Halo 2 is cool but Rock N’ Roll Racing is TeH HaXoRxZ!!!

    Do you get into other games besides Halo? Let us know what else you like! Send us a one paragraph mini-review so others can benefit from your opinion as a Halo fan. You can also send in reviews of retro games or even talk about games you don’t like and why. Either way, send it in! Hopefully it will be just as great as Rock N’ Roll Racing.

    Deadline is Thursday Night

    at about 5:30pm EST. As usual, the earlier you get your submission in, the more likely it will be on the show. So make it quick!

    Media Temple has hooked H:P up with a sweet new Grid Server (we can now take a B.netting and more). I’m in the process of moving all of the public downloads to a new system (because the old download links are teh borked). Give me a day or two for all of the download links working again. It may be sooner if I can stay off of Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 on XBOX Live Arcade.

    Toasty!

    Wow. Stephen Loftus has been known for a while as someone who goes to great lengths to measure the Bungie Haloverse. Recently, he sent two images to be attached to his Scale Comparison article (a UNSC Weaponry Scale Chart and a Covenant Weaponry Scale Chart – these are both recreations of existing images, but with a twist; he’s photographed all the accessories that come with the Halo Action Figures. I’m telling you… for toys, it’s amazing how much effort went into making sure they were to the proper scale! Check these out.(Louis Wu 15:30:52 UTC)

    As many of you know the Cavegirls held a tournament yesterday, Oct 21, to raise money to combat Breast Cancer and help on researches. It was great, an amazing tournament putting together around 64 players for an amazing FFA feast and podtacular has some people there. I, Dialpex, couldn’t show up due to a family issue i had to take care of, however since i had already paid for it i decided to sponsor MaesterGXL, surelly one of the best Halo 2 players from our community, and guys did he do good. He placed 2nd on the tournament by being a great sport and also representing the podtacular community out there.

    Thank you MaesterGXL for bringing the podtacular community up there along with those great players from that tournament. Great Job to everyone that participated as well!!!

    Keep on fragging trucks!
