The latest news about the Halo series of games from Microsoft
From FBWalshyFTW:
This Halo 4 montage is entitled “Simple” and features gameplay captured and edited by Lynx. Enjoy!
We’ve been kidnapped by the rampant AI, Durandal! With no information on where we are or what we’re supposed to be doing, we have to survive and escape to continue to fight off the Pfhor invaders. It seems Leela thought that there were some weapons here to find, but Durandal says we’re looking in the wrong place…

Bungie artists give us the lowdown on the details behind the creation of the gameplay reveal of Bungie’s new game, the bird simulator called Destiny.
In order to send a message to Earth 92 light years away, Leela needs us to reactivate the Marathon’s antenna array. Only one problem: the G4 Sunbathing Loading Dock has been plunged into vacuum rendering some of our weapons useless, and is teeming with Pfhor fighters, troopers, hunters and S’pht compilers. We have to make our way to the antenna while dodging enemy fire and keeping an eye on our oxygen meters. Wish us luck!

Rampancy.net’s Anger, Sadness and Envy Podcast is currently featuring a Let’s Play series of Bungie’s classic sci-fi shooter, Marathon.
Join us, Blackstar and Narcogen, as we punch and shoot our way through 36 levels of cooperative gameplay trying to survive, escape, and eventually conquer the invading Pfhor, their minions, and rogue artificial intelligences. We’re having a lot of fun with this game; it’s old, but it’s been given a fresh coat of paint by the Aleph One team, runs great on modern machines, and has online coop and competitive multiplayer thanks to MariusNet.com. Come take a look, or better yet, start playing!

Leela’s going to flush us out into the cold, hard vacuum of space to fight the Pfhor, but not before she leads us to a cool new gun. We’ll have to watch out, though, because while playing in co-op mode made getting the flamethrower a cinch, it can present particular problems when escaping this level.

From Gugga Leunnam:
This is my second take on my Halo/Man of Steel ultimate fan trailer mashup. Enjoy!
Halo is a fictional universe. However, sometimes we catch sight of things in real life that remind us of our favorite science fiction video game franchise. This particular series, titled Halo in Real Life, showcases those very moments. Enjoy the subtle Halo references sometimes spotted when out and about in the real world, and if you have a picture you’d like to submit for possible future inclusion, send it to bsangel[at]halowaypoint.com!

The ninth installment of my new Halo 4 top ten series is now live. I hope you all enjoy!

From AgentPaperCraft:
Hello, Waypoint goers! With the addition of community-made content into Matchmaking, custom maps and game types have become an integral part of Halo’s Multiplayer. Forgers and game type creators often work hours, days and even months on their content before it’s considered for Matchmaking, and it’s usually the lack of having a ready player-base to test their maps that it takes so long. So I offer an option to our Forgers, a place to bring your maps and game types to have them tested and reviewed by a group of the top Forgers around. You’ll receive top-notch forging tips and tricks to wow your players, improve map spawn and flow, provide a better map experience and get your name out there. You’ll also get to work directly with the Community Cartographers, a select group of community Forge enthusiasts who work with 343 Industries in the search of top-quality content for Matchmaking consideration. Every Wednesday night at 6PM ET, get an invite by sending “AgentPaperCraft” a message over Xbox LIVE, or leave a comment in the Test Night Thread.
Hope to see you there!
