Under The Sea
Oakley Hidef of The Halo Forge Epidemic posted a tutorial showing how to get under the water level on Forge island – what’s neat about this is that there is an actual Forge space underneath the surface and the lessened visibility makes for some pretty cool visual effects. Oakely Hidef also provided an underwater Forge canvas to make things a little easier. Thanks, Gabotron ES and uberfoop.(mastrbiggy 08:55:25 UTC)

Malukah’s Main Menu Music
From halo.bungie.org:
Malukah is back, and I’m in love. (It’s platonic, I’m happily married… but that voice is amazing.) She’s covered the main menu music from Halo 4, and I want someone to swap it in so I can hear it every time I launch the game. Thanks, GryphonOsiris.

Neil Blomkamp Talks Halo
IGN posted an article about Neil Blomkamp’s thoughts on finally doing a Halo feature film. He admitted that while he still loves the mythology of Halo, living up to everyone’s interpretation of Halo isn’t appealing. I would love to see Neil make a Halo movie, but I completely understand the hesitation. I guess Elysium’s ‘Halo’-esque setting will have to do, for now.(mastrbiggy 08:05:18 UTC)
