Halo 4 Emblem Generator
From Furiousn00b:
I whipped up a Halo 4 Emblem Generator for everyone to use. It pulls the emblems straight from Halo 4 metadata – so you can be sure that it includes every emblem foreground, background and color. It should automatically update if new emblems are ever added, too. Enjoy!

Want some flan made of you’re dead?
Clueless Gamer Conan O’Brien (hey, don’t get mad at me, it’s what he calls the segment) reviewed Halo 4 – it contains a 2 minute summary of the Halo story (leave it to Conan to tie Bill Cosby into Halo), and then some… interesting gameplay. Absolutely worth a watch. Thanks, thebruce0.(Louis Wu 14:46:28 UTC)

Awaiting
It ain’t Halo, but it IS Levi, and when Levi paints, we listen. Leviathan stopped in last night with some Destiny fan art – it’s perfect for your phone, or your desktop, or even just your eyes. Go look. Lots of options.(Louis Wu 13:24:01 UTC)

Siri contributes to Halo 4
The Waypoint Halo Bulletin hit the interwebz last night pretty late – and by now, we’ve added it to our Halo Bulletin Archive, as well. Go swing by for some pretty tasty bits! There are details of next week’s changes to Matchmaking, some great behind-the-scenes info about Spartan Ops, and some Campaign easter egg hints. (No, you haven’t found them all yet.) Thanks, Grim.(Louis Wu 13:21:49 UTC)

The Beatles Machinithology – or part of it
Firestorm12 let us know about a cancelled project he’s been working on for years – he calls it ‘The Beatles Machinithology’, and the vision was a fourteen-part music video series made with as many Halo games as possible. Circumstances were such that the project has been canned – so he’s releasing the three segments that HAVE been finished. Go watch:- The Beatles Machinithology – Because
- The Beatles Machinithology – Blackbird/Yesterday
- The Beatles Machinithology – Why Don’t We Do It In The Road?
Interesting camera work, great music – how can you go wrong? (Louis Wu 22:44:41 UTC)

Lifting Skir- um, Curtains
According to the timestamp on the article, we missed this last night, apparently… but it’s more likely that the stamp’s a bit inaccurate. In any case, Bungie.net has a new dramatic reading available for your viewing pleasure – Halo Lover waxes nearly poetic about his love of the series, and Deej offers tantalizing hints of the future. Go watch! (Grizzlei kicked off a thread on our forum, if you want to discuss it.)(Louis Wu 20:53:33 UTC)

Tyrant’s Halo 4 Legendary Walkthrough – Forerunner
From MythicTyrant:Now in the depths of Requiem’s core, we learn that the UNSC starship Infinity is on a collision course for the planet. Our mission is simple. Deactivate the pylons and contact Infinity in time to warn them of the danger. Unfortunately, our new “friends” seem to see things a bit differently.
Recommended skulls here are Tilt (for extra shield resistance – this applies to both you AND enemies) and Catch (to force the Knights to lob grenades more than shoot).
