eBay Goodies going to Good Homes
Phil Shiel sent us a pic of the Master Chief Resin Statue (228K) he bought off eBay a few days ago – it’s the one we mentioned here. Looks awesome next to the high-end TV equipment he plays Halo 2 on! (I guess we’re doing some decent advertising for eBay sellers; the M6D replica we mentioned a few days ago was snatched up by one of our favorite artists, Elnea.

Stubbs Demo on OXM Disc
Jefu Kune points out that the Stubbs the Zombie demo (for Xbox) can be found on the current cover DVD for the Official Xbox Magazine. (We mentioned the Mac and PC demos a few days ago.) You can now try this Halo-engined game on whatever platform you prefer!

MLG Noob Guide
Very cool – over at MLG, you’ll find A Newcomers Guide to Halo 2 at MLG – Part I. This is a great intro to MLG-standard weapons, and basic strats for them. Nice! Thanks, 3Suns.

Be a star! Submit stuff for Podtacular
Can you believe it’s Friday already? Well it’s about that time, and we’re looking for more cool stuff to talk about. I know we have 2 more shows to release this week (we’re working on it!) but it’s time to start rounding up the topics for next week.
Teach the world how to pwn n00bs on Ivory Tower
Got a tip for ivory tower? Know a good assault/ctf strat, a good jumping spot, a good hiding spot, a good combo, a good slayer routine? Let us know! Just post in the comments of this article. If it’s good, we’ll put your tip on the show and announce your gamertag for the world to hear!
What if you could influence the features in Halo 3?
We can’t promise you anything, but who knows, if you come up with a really good idea and Bungie hears about it, maybe it could be incorporated into the game! If nothing else, it’s fun to speculate. So let us know your wishlist for Halo 3 and we’ll put it on the podcast waves or whatever.
And the winner is…
People last week sent in their favorite games other than Halo. A few of them people mentioned were:
- Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (1 or 2)
- Elder Scrolls: Morrowind
- Animal Crossing (GC or DS)
- Grand Theft Auto (any of them)
- Star Wars Battlefront 2
- Battlefield 2
If this were the Podtacular non-Halo game awards, which one would you pick? Why? Just email us or post in the comments.
Reporting for Podtacular
Do you know a pro gamer or how to get in touch with one? Know Frankie’s barber? Got a cool event to cover? Some interesting news? An interview with someone that’s Halo related, however tenuous the connection? Record it and send it in! If we like it, we’ll put it on a show.
But wait, there’s more!
We’re also looking for your stories, general tips, n00b tips, custom games, web resources and other cool stuff that might do well on Podtacular. So get to work everyone! Deadline is Saturday Night.

Black Bandaids and Peanut Butter Blood
The Bungie Humpday Challenge was back yesterday – even though it wasn’t Humpday, they weren’t playing Halo, and in fact they weren’t even playing anyone outside of Bungie Studios. The writeup’s pretty funny, though, so go read it! Frankie was first – as usual. Cheater. (The contest he mentioned will be made public later today, so stay tuned.)

Horde Boosting, Indeed.
The guy doesn’t stop. More megabattle goodness from rockslider over at Bad Cyborg – bump the total number of enemies to about 50! Wonga.

Bryn Casey Delivers.
Bryn ‘ofthehi77’ Casey let us know about another pair of paintings he’d posted recently – we’ve added them to his gallery here. ‘Terminal‘ is a great view of the Terminal garage… and ‘Delta Halo‘ is… well, just what you’d expect. Really nice work – be sure to take a look!
-
More gameplay and montage action from H2F
Z pointed out another couple of vids over at Halo2Forum.com – both are huge (150-200 mb apiece). There’s a KotH game between Exit Woundz and Legendz, on Midship – great audio (these guys really communicate well), and a montage from Ner0sis with lots of funky effects and a bunch of known names. Go grab ’em!

The Maw Slayer Tournament
jman571 wrote to let us know about the Maw Slayer Tournament, an online HaloPC-baesd 2v2 tourney. You can sign up in this Bungie.net forum thread. Dates/times don’t seem to be set yet, and they’re working on a website – but the forum thread contains all the info you need. Go sign up!

Podtacular Ep 42 released
Podtacular Ep 42 (Beginning of the year blowout) has been posted – swing by and download it! It’s an hour long, 28 mb. Thanks, Henry Brown.

Is it that time yet?
QBakies pointed out a new entry in his gaming blog – The Sad March of Progress looks at his gradual movement away from Halo 2 towards other online games. Are you like Q, and ready to move on? Or does Halo still suck you in?

SexyJosh – back!
Some of you might remember SexyJosh, who released a number of Halo songs a couple of years ago – he stopped by our forum yesterday to point out that all of his Halo music (and more, in fact) has been collected at a new address, with a new design – if you haven’t heard this stuff before, check it out!

Episode 42: Beginning of the year blowout!
Podtacular starts the year out with a bang! This has got to be one of my favorite shows ever. We talk a lot about some interesting Halo 3 ideas, news, other games Halo freaks play, and web resources. This is a big show so grab your bowl of cream corn and settle in for a nice long show. (1 hour!) With guest host Glewis.

Hasta La Vista, Baby.
Burnie’s back from his vacation… and Episode 71 of Red vs Blue, ‘You Keep Using That Word’, has been posted for Sponsors. (Yeah, that means that the free versions should be up by Friday, if not sooner.) Shiela has turned into my second girlfriend, and Simmons has – oops. That’s not right. Go watch – it’s funny. And say hi to – eep. Never mind. Go watch.

He’s A REAL Boy!
Gah. Out all day… I managed to miss posting Wednesday’s One One Se7en. Up now, though. Pretty darned funny, too – worth the wait, probably. (If you don’t think it’s funny, that might be you in the last panel.)
