Going… going… gone.
Reach’s Emile plays a larger-than-usual role in the latest Fails of the Weak (AH.com | YouTube). That guy should spend less time polishing his knife and more time avoiding out-of-the-park swings. Thanks, Nikko B201.(Louis Wu 20:49:48 UTC)

Starhammer – an influence for Halo
Grey101 might be a newcomer to our forum – but he’s hit the ground running, that’s for sure! A second analysis piece in as many days looks at the Starhammer trilogy, from Christopher Rowley, and focuses on how it has affected the Halo universe. (Spoilers – the answer is ‘really heavily’.) Go give it a read!(Louis Wu 21:53:56 UTC)

ASE Ep. 100 Marathon Infinity lvl 8 Post Naval Trauma
Thanks to everyone who has watched and listened to ASE over the past few years– this is our 100th episode!
Special thanks go to Blackstar who is playing Marathon with me, to Bungiefen Miguel Chavez and Cody Miller who have been co-hosts many, many times, and to Trindacut who first convinced me that Rampancy should have a podcast and cohosted many of the early Halo-focused episodes.
Enjoy!

Durandal has sent us to a Pfhor orbital repair facility to blow up some stuff! Sounds like fun. Prepare to drink vacuum!

Building Halo 4’s Distributed Cloud Services
If you’re into cloud computing and massive data processing, there’s a pretty in-depth talk from Build 2014 in which the team from 343 discuss how they built the cloud services that power Halo 4. SERIOUSLY technical. Check it out! Thanks, Arithmomaniac. (Louis Wu 20:22:55 UTC)

SC in 3.75 minutes. Wow.
slYnki has (re)broken the world record speed run for Silent Cartographer – it’s now down to 3:44! Take a look! (Louis Wu 20:20:30 UTC)

100 not out
Rockslider continues his habit of pushing Halo glitches to their extremes; for his 100th video, he decided to mess with the Spirit dropship, in an attempt to keep it from its normal path. He’s successful – to a point. (The end of the video shows some really nice flying.) Check it out! (Louis Wu 20:18:27 UTC)

Impossible Pragmatism – isn’t that an oxymoron?
Grey101 stopped by our forum to announce his analysis of Catherine Halsey – swing by his blog to give it a read! A very interesting piece, it is. (Louis Wu 20:10:16 UTC)

I do some web design…
Gugga Leunnam (we’ve mentioned his mashups before) let us know that he’s put out his latest work: Halo/The Amazing Spider-Man 2 FINAL Trailer Mashup. Pretty slick! (He even made some wallpaper for this one!)(Louis Wu 20:07:39 UTC)

Halo 3 ODST – Sword Slaughter
Hey, it’s Thursday, time for a little catch-up! We got a note a couple of days ago from Gamecheat – he modded Halo 3: ODST to allow the Rookie to wield an Energy Sword. Pretty satisfying! (Might have been moreso without infinite ammo and invulnerability… but hey. Sometimes you just gotta cut a Grunt.) (Louis Wu 20:00:10 UTC)

Podtacular 417: Spring Cleaning
This podcast is a little late, due to some IRL things going on with the hosts, but we had a truck load of information roll on down last week. Ridley Scott will be working on a Halo Digital Feature that is separate from the Halo TV show, but to which many are speculating about the possibility of a Halo movie. Cortana, Microsoft’s answer to Siri and Google Now will be coming to Windows Phone 8.1. The multiplayer service that offered the server browser for Halo: PC will be shutting down May 31, 2014. Finally, all your matchmaking updates are in this week’s Halo Bulletin.

Halo TV series – maybe behind schedule?
Running REALLY low on free time – but there’s enough to slip you the info that mikimarquez shot our way: it looks like the Spielberg-helmed Halo TV project announced last year has been postponed a bit – according to Deadline, it’s still in the ‘deal-making phase’. No word on what that might mean for the projects that came AFTER it – like the recently-announced Ridley Scott-produced series.(Louis Wu 23:55:27 UTC)
