Mail Sack, Now Bristling With Sleek Firepower
A good deal of new information about some of the alien races in Bungie’s Destiny in this week’s Mail Sack. Here, for instance, is some really interesting stuff about the Fallen from Urk:
I fell in love with the Fallen all the way back in 2009. Partly because there’s just something wonderful about the idea of a nomadic race of once noble houses now scattered to the solar winds. Partly because there’s something primordial and instantly terrifying about squaring off against an unpredictable Fallen Captain, his tattered crimson cape draped over a set of four splayed and angular arms that bristle with sleek firepower.
Sounds like an interesting blend of Dune’s Landsraad, Mass Effect’s Quarians, and Unreal’s Nali. Also sounds like they all have four arms.

Renegades Episode 5 – A Halo: Reach Machinima
From NukeTacoProductions:This week, we find ourselves on the last episode of Season 1. Last week’s episode was short on action, but this week’s episode more than makes up for it. We hope you’ve enjoyed watching this first season of Renegades as much as we enjoyed making it. And rest assured, this won’t be the last you see of the Renegades, they’ll be back…
Betrayal can happen in the blink of eye, out of nowhere, and it can blindside you. You go through life thinking you know someone, then one day they turn on you for their own selfish needs. While Creed searches for evidence of Kane’s continued existence, Grim reminisces on a previous mission he was on with Axe and the rest of his squad. Check out www.nucleartacoproductions.com for more Renegades and other exciting content!

Podtacular 350: Dat Tarp
Download | Shownotes
Half way to 700 episode and we’re still rockin’ the mic with Halo news, and this week is not lack-luster. We had the Majestic Map pack drop this week giving us the chance to review the maps for ourselves and we really like what we see. By far it seems like the favorite is Skyline. Extraction is getting it’s own playlist next week as well as Spartan Ops recycling the second half of the season next week. The question of the podcast is a little more free form and open to hilarious responses: What has dat tarp done for you? Enjoy

Micro-transactions and character progression
pete_the_duck jumped into the microtransaction discussion that’s currently going on over on the DBO forum – but his thoughts got a little too extensive for a forum post. Since the focus of his argument is Halo, we’ve chosen this front page to highlight his work.(Louis Wu 21:37:27 UTC)

As often happens on Wednesday nights, the Halo Waypoint Bulletin was released yesterday, and if you swing by and read it, you’ll get info on next week’s Playlist updates, details about the newly-functional-on-web Halo 4 File Browser (lots of cool screenshots already!), and thoughts about the end of Spartan Ops Season 1’s storyline.

Podtacular – Halo 4 Campaign, Requiem
From Dust Storm:Continuing our journey in the Halo 4 Campaign, the Master Chief crash lands on Requiem in the remains of the Forward Unto Dawn and other Covenant ships that got sucked in with you. There’s no doubt that there are Covenant that made it down with you, too. Near the very beginning of the level, there is one part that truly shows how beautiful the game looks on 7-year-old hardware, but don’t let that keep you for too long. Remember, you need to figure out where you are. We are joined by B2theRyanNewman to help cover the mission. Enjoy!
