Sorry for any downtime. Our server was swamped due to demand for the bTV Halo movies. Ok lets get this show on the road. Pax.

Whoa! Halo SETI marines continue to climb higher in the Top Team Rankings. Find out who is doing their bit on the 24 hour team stats page.

Massa of Halo Network sends word that Day 4 bTV Halo footage is available in .mov and .asf (only 633kb) formats at http://halo.gamesweb.de/downloads.shtml. Thanks.

Freewill asks you to head on over to bungie.net and take a look at the Bungie Gathering of Fans group shot. Fifty faces to put a name to.

Harry “when I’m not translating, I’m grabbing screens” Al-Shakarchi has compiled a few screenshots from the Day 4 footage, with comments… check ’em out, see if the 6 megs is worth it! Pax.

Hot off the cutting board, the (much smaller, but easily as cool) Halo footage from bTV’s Day 4 is now available. Go get it! (And if you can mirror it, let us know… we’ll add you to the page.)

Robert Cox sent us the new, improved logo for the iHALO site. We’ve added it to the Logos page. Pax.

)Sphere( writes to let us know that the Mystikal Posse site has been redesigned… stop on by if you’re interested in joining!

The downloads page for the Day 3 clip is up to 6 mirrors… we actually stand a chance of keeping up with demand. 😉 Looks like as soon as we can get that nearly 300-meg monster of a Day 4 hacked up, we’ll put it up, as well.

If the Day3 Halo clip wasn’t enough for you, Joseph Staten tells us that the Day 4 Archive was just posted. 270 megabytes… wow! (We’ll do our best to get a clip up… but remember, our lines are already swamped serving the day 3 version. It might be a while.)

Massa writes to let us know that the German Halo Network has added two versions of the Day 3 clip: the standard 15 meg file, and a 1.7 meg ASF (WindowsMedia) version. Grab the one you want! Thanks, Massa!

Georg sends word that he’s put up a German mirror for the Halo day 3 footage… thanks, Georg! (All mirrors are now listed on our local Day3 page.)

Hamish “I walk through mindfields and watch your head rock” Sinclair of Marathon’s Story has put up a new page about… well I’m not exactly sure WHAT it’s about cause my head hurts but possible Halo’s influences are discussed. Warning though it’s long. Open up your head, feel the shell shock.

Jonathan Pearce updates us with a corrected url for his Halo clip mirror. “And this time, I guarantee that it works. ;)” We’ll take you up on that, Jonathan…

Aaron Sommer writes to let us know that his 15 meg Halo clip mirror is now distributed over three servers, so it’s probably a bit more stable. Thanks, Aaron!

A day for contemplation… Andreas Nasri speculates on the Covenant, and raises some interesting questions as to their motivations. This, too, can be found on our Theories page. Thanks, Tycho!

Kudos to Damien Sorresso, who sent us some thoughts on the possible connections between Marathon and Halo. You can find them on our Theories page. Thanks, Damien!

The Halo SETI marines gain some new members and increase their unit crunching. Halo SETI team are going places. Don’t get left behind. Join now!

Kudos to Jonathan Pearce for mirroring the 15 meg Halo clip from Day 3 of Bungie TV at ftp://158.111.61.86/halo.mov. Not working yet… give him a chance.

Aaron Sommer writes to say that his mirror of the 15 meg Halo clip is getting hit really hard (as are we). Please-if you have a really fast connection (DSL/Cable Modem/School Tx), download the full file from the bTV archives… leave the “little” file for slower-connection folks who can’t get the big one. (And if you have a fast connection, and would like to help, let us know!) Thanks!
