From TwitticalStrike:

So about Halo cakes… the theme that year was Halo, so what about a piñata of the Master Chief?!

From 0IAH:

There are many talented photographers on Halo 4. The screenshots players take in this game can be very amazing. This video consists of some very amazing screenshots that were taken by members within Halo 4 community. Take a couple minutes out of your time to enjoy the beauty of this game.

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!

From GoonOnFire:

Once again, the Udda team disappoints our friend by not inviting him to their game when filming a Machinima. Payback? That’s an understatement!

From AgentPaperCraft:

Hello, Waypoint goers! With the addition of community-made content into matchmaking, custom maps and game types have become a integral part of Halo’s multiplayer experience. It keeps matchmaking fresh with all new content and game types that keep us on our toes. 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.

Join us this week as we induct another round of our Forge mentoring program, a program where we pair you up with a veteran forger to help hone your skills creating and distributing your custom content. Your mentor will help co-forge your map, offer you a higher level of assistance in understanding dynamic map flow, spawn placement, structural design, and other important aspects of designing your custom map. For more information about the mentoring program, head over to the ForgeHub thread where you can also post your maps for review and testing.

From TermaciousTrickocity:

Tribute is a Halo 3, ODST, and Reach tricking and launching montage brought to you by Termacious Trickocity. Over six months ago Terminal Velocity and Tenacious Tricking began collaborating on what would become this video, and along the way we decided to join forces permanently. We would like to thank Spudmonkey for editing, Bojangles for filming, and Glytchable for creating a few tracks for us, as well as assisting Spudmonkey with the soundtrack mix. Enjoy the show!

Some people show their love for Halo by playing the games. Others get a relevant image permanently placed upon their body. Enjoy this particular example of a Halo-related body modification, and if you have a picture you’d like to submit for possible future inclusion, send it to bsangel[at]halowaypoint.com!

From ZSoulArmorX17:

Here’s my first tattoo that I got about a month ago. It’s got lots of meaning behind it but the Halo nerd in me is stoked because it says “Axios” in Greek lettering. It’s my daily reminder that I am worthy!

From Gugga Leunnam:

A new trailer of Thor: The Dark World is coming! Guess who is Loki in this mashup!

From Postmortem:

This round, two fans submitted their renditions of the pheru from Cryptum.

CHa0S envisioned the pheru as an alien Lagomorph. One can easily picture the Flood-infested critters swarming over Forerunner lawns across the galaxy.

That Gunslinger depicted a much more canine-like pheru, with a face strange enough to appear alien, yet cute enough to cuddle up alongside young Manipulars. Minus the Flood growths, of course.

Be sure to check out the Round 14 archives!

Playing some Longbow, launching warthogs into space, no big deal…
