Have you discovered the fun little easter egg in Halo 4 Matchmaking today? Play in the Majestic FFA, Regicide, CTF, Flood, Grifball or Team Objective playlist to find out what I’m talking about. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Nope, not doing one.
Bungie’s latest Mail Sack is up. Here’s a highlight:
MastaSin In Destiny, can we play as the aliens or are we locked to the human race? And if we are, why are we locked to the human race? What’s the reason?
Deej Not all of the aliens in Destiny are evil, just like not all humans are good. We’ve barely scratched the surface on the character and customization options you’ll have access to in Destiny, but we’re not going to dig in any deeper today.
I believe one of the early IGN stories seemed to indicate that players would only be humans, but this seems to cast a bit of doubt.

From Forge Hub:
Welcome, friends! On this most special of occasions, we’ve gathered together to enjoy yet another competitive tournament hosted by Forge Hub. As you can hopefully tell, this tournament is going to be a 2 versus 2 shindig, played on a menagerie of community-generated maps. So, if you and a friend think you’ve got what it takes to be the best two man army on Forge Hub (or just have a bit of competitive fun) then this is the place for you!
This tournament’s goal is to combine two things that we love here on the Hub: creating maps and playing Halo! Once again we’re asking our community to step up and create maps to host 2v2 matches on, so that we can give as much power to the community as possible. In this tournament, we’re hoping to have as many maps as possible be community made. Like in our last recent tournament, we’ll be judging the maps based on a mathematical system, picking maps that will play the absolute best with the 2v2 Dust-Up game type.
Hope to see you there!

This is my video depicting the origin of a hero. If you like Halo, Imagine Dragons or are just looking for a video to watch, I hope you enjoy it. Thanks!

Leviathan received a new pot with cool artwork on it. Some of it is Halo related. Go look!
Claude Errera has announced that DBO is now building their Destiny Video Archive. Right now what’s there are the two official vids, with more stuff to come.
Some people love the classic battle of Red vs. Blue. Others enjoy a little dash of Halo in their favorite sandbox construction game. Regardless of which one you prefer, you should check out Skin Pack 4 for Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition because nestled amongst this collection of skins – which feature characters from Gears, Assassin’s Creed, Charlie Murder and more – is a familiar looking pair of red and blue Spartans. This particular skin pack is available for 160 MSP but should your virtual pockets be empty, follow us on Twitter because we’ll be giving away codes for this DLC pack tomorrow. See you then, and happy Halo-ing/Minecraft-ing!

Evil FX Props and Armor shared this work-in-progress Didact helmet sculpt – it looks really awesome. I can’t wait to see the finished product!

From Dust Storm:
After releasing the Didact, you are faced with the UNSC Infinity crash landing on Requiem. You must make your way through the jungle, meet up with other Marines and Spartans along the way, and defend Infinity while repairs are being made, but you must hurry: you’re not the only one heading towards Infinity. Also, you get to drive a Scorpion tank. Helping us run through one of the toughest Halo 4 missions is the mythical man himself, Mythic Tyrant, founder of the mythic community. Enjoy!
This week’s Community Focus feature over at Bungie is on the Destiny SubReddit. It’s dangerous to go alone, take this.
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!

Here is a Halo 4 trick jumping montage from the video making group “The Subject Show.” It is easily the best trick jumping video yet in Halo 4 and it has some really nice filming and editing. The guys from jumprs.org never disappoint.
