Whoa. You think YOU’RE an obsessed Halo fan? You got nuthin’ on this guy. Danny Kolacz is a diehard Halo collector, but he’s always been unhappy that the Active Camo Master Chief (a figure Joyride didn’t sell; they gave it away as a promotion) came in a plain cardboard box, rather than the standard packaging for Joyride toys. It took him about an hour to rectify the situation (125K) without destroying the original packaging… now that Active Camo cheif can sit on his shelf with the rest of the boxed toys, and not look out of place.

Today’s Guest One One Se7en looks at UNSC weaponry in a new light.

Blackstar comes up with a cool new game in today’s Calvin and Halo.

Some people seem to be having trouble with the submission script – they get to the second screen, and their computer tells them it can’t find the site. I can’t explain why this mght be happening – we didn’t make any changes at all to the script except to move it to a new server, but if you couldn’t find the new server, you wouldn’t be able to get to the FIRST screen, much less the second. If we figure out the mystery, we’ll be sure to let you know.

Sniperman27 has released Halo Messenger 3 (2.3 mb), a standalone windows app that checks rss files from HBO and Red vs Blue, as well as giving you access to the Psyjnir Complex Music Database. It’s pretty slow checking rss feeds… but apparently, that’s our fault.

Whoa. Crispy Spartan dropped by our forum to dish out the first weekly update on his First Strike mod project. (We first mentioned this mod a month and a half ago, before it moved to Halocity.org.) Some good stuff in the updates; sketches, early models, and maps. Check it out!

Silvergrunt created a movie using ‘Fraps, Windows Movie Maker, and 2 cans of Mountain Dew’ – it’s almost 5 minutes of an Oddball game on Derelict, filmed on the HBO-Coerce server. It’s in WMP9 format, weighs in at about 12 mb, and is being hosted by MereCatfish. The soundtrack is Mothergoat’s ‘Hail 117 Anthem’. You can grab it here.

BOLL has continued to tweak his Grunt shooting game (wait for it… then shoot the grunt when he appears); at this point, he’s done. (The file is now local, so he HAS to be done.) More grunt colors, more stats, piercing bullets, better graphics, less lag… See how you do.

Looks like I totally misread the iGames Championship Match Results from yesterday; was that explaining paragraph on the top of the page then? The numbers correspond to the player’s POSITION, not score; low numbers are better . The US/Canada’s representative, Noah Evans, was actually doing quite well – but was beaten in the finals. (Looks like he tied for 4th place overall.) The winner was Jonathan Finglass, of the UK, with nobody NEAR him (Stefan Dammers, of Holland, took a distant second). Thanks to Spideroptics for pointing out the win on our forum!

Fluffy, from Battleground: Halo, points out that they have a new mailbag up. It’s a joint effort – towards something.

CYBRFRK wrote up a different kind of reminiscence about the recent Offensive Tetraboxing lanfest that took place here a couple of weeks ago. New (gigantic) pictures… but the meat is in the text. Take a look – this is what HBO is all about.

Very nice. Dan Chosich found some new pics from Toy Fair – very nicely taken shots of the new Halo figures. Check ’em out!

Continuing the homage series, Stuntmutt tips a hat to Scott Adams in today’s One One Se7en.

Have you ever blown something up just for the fun of it? Now Halo: Resolution has…

Bungie’s Tru7h and Reconciliation site has an update on the Halo PC Championships; their link to iGames’ results page shows that (among other things) the US competitor has taken a pounding so far. Ouch! Keep your eyes open for the finals!

Is it a viagra commercial, or is it One One Se7en?

Calvin and Halo focuses on the dangers of timed powerups. Or something. This would have been visible several hours ago, but its active camo hadn’t worn off yet.

Webshift points out that the Nightmare Armor guys are raffling off a helmet. $5 gets you in; on March 13, they’ll pick a winner and give the helmet away.

Holy… STOP HIM! THE MAN NEEDS TO BE STOPPED! (If you’re confused what it’s all about, wait a moment.) I realized that I needed to give BOLL credit for his work in this news post, or… well, ask c0ld.
