I guess powered armor is powered armor.
Cody Miller noticed that the teaser poster for the upcoming Edge of Tomorrow has something of a Halo feel… (It’s not anything LIKE Halo, as far as story goes – seems like it’s more of a militarized Groundhog Day – but the poster’s cool.) (Louis Wu 18:20:33 UTC)

Blam! Dink! His Mom Plays Halo 4
Okay – this is by no means all the Halo news in the past week, but I’m going to try and clear out the items that have been posted on our forum recently. Again, huge apologies for the extended drought. First up – MixMaker1 got his mom, who’s never played a video game in her life, to try playing Halo 4 online.

thebruce, thebear, and the postmortem of a domino effect
We recently mentioned the latest round of Postmortem’s awesome “Visualizing the Halo Universe” community contest series, where community members provided their take on the Forerunner Capital City from Greg Bear’s Forerunner Trilogy. One particular entry, from our very own thebruce, drew some very specific praise from Mr. Greg Bear himself! Pretty awesome! Thanks for bringing it to our attention, Postmortem. Also, the whole exchange was thought awesome enough by wonderscribe DayandKnightly that he decided to write about it. You got all that?! Phew!(GrimBrother One 05:17:48 UTC)

Podtacular 385: Spartan Assault
Download
This week we take a look at Halo: Spartan Assault, a story of a battle that happened on Dratheus V involving Sarah Palmer in the early days of Spartan Ops. The graphics for the game turned out really well, the controls are easy to pick up, and the game play is fun. While there is a story line to the game, focus of the game drove more to the playing experience. This week’s bulletin dives into details for next week’s Halo 4 Global Championship online qualifiers along with an announcement that winners from the last six AGL events will have a seat in the finals. Our guest host this week is a long-standing community member Facehead. Enjoy
