Halo used in a study on stupid people
sonik son sent us a link that’s pretty darned tangential to Halo… but Halo IS involved, so here you go. Over at MarginalRevolution.com, there’s a blog entry about a study that compared higher prices with free shipping vs lower prices with expensive shipping to see which attracted buyers faster. (Turns out we’re stupid, and will pay $5 + $6 shipping more quickly than we’ll pay $10 + $0 shipping.) Halo was one of the items used in the eBay sellathon. (See? I told you it was tangential.)

H2O Federation Kicks Off
Swing by the website of the Professional Gamers League of America to read about the new H2O Federation. Instead of a series of (relatively) unrelated tournaments, they’re setting up a league, similar to the NFL, where teams will compete all season long. It was only a matter of time…

Eenk Eenk Eenk!
Over at Bungie.net you’ll find a pretty cool story about a Cosplayer who won some awards with his Elite costume – along with cool pictures showing the costume itself, and how he pulled off the whole reverse-knee thing. Check it out! (I don’t even need to visit our forum to know that there’s a FIRST post from Frankie…)

The Mombasa Massacre
Jamie98s is turning out to be one of the top moviemakers in the Halo universe; I can’t remember a film he’s made that I didn’t like. His latest work, The Mombasa Massacre, blew through the MPRRS without a scratch. It’s a slightly different take on his last piece, Chaos on the Creek; this one also tells the story of two factions that lived in peace until violence broke out… but this time, it’s a third faction causing the trouble. Cinematography rocks, and the huge battlescenes are REALLY well-done. This one’s a watcher. It’s big – 12:30 long, almost 100 mb to download… but worth it. Grab ‘The Mombasa Massacre’ in WMP9 format or QuickTime format. If you make machinima, study it.

Shh… me hunting hewetics!
Another large batch of Dialogue snippets from Hellhawk have been added to the Halo 2 Dialogue Databank; this time, it’s 155 snippets, all Grunts and Elites. Only Brutes are left – probably tomorrow!

Immortal Montage Trailer
rywateska is putting together a new ‘Immortal Montage’, and he submitted the trailer to the MPRRS recently. Went over quite well. It’s quite short, and you can grab it in two different form-factors; 640×428 (about 12 mb, QuickTime or WMP9) or 420×280 (about 8 mb, QuickTime or WMP9). Go watch – and then wait for the actual montage!

Midnight In Iraq
You may or may not remember the name Midnight – but he’s been around the Halo community for quite some time, and now he’s in Fallujah with the US Armed Forces. He’s got a blog over at HushedCasket.com to keep you up-to-date on how it’s going. (This is a guy who hacked his Xbox, added an LCD screen to it and took several copies of Halo with him over there.) As of yesterday, he’s become milblogging.com’s Milblogger of the Week. Way to go, Midnight! Thanks, rapture.

ITVNW’s Video Game Pilot
Over at High Impact Halo, there’s a newspost about a video podcast from an independent TV company that covers Pacific Northwest style – and one of their episodes (number 8 in the list) is devoted to Halo. It’s really aimed at a more generic audience than this one – but it’s worth a watch if you’re interested in how the public might be looking at you, and the game(s) you play. If you’d rather watch it in iTunes than in your browser, there’s a direct link in the HIH newspost. (This item is only available in QuickTime 7 format; anything else, and you’re out of luck.)
