Kampy – Halo Anniversary Montage
Kampy jumped into Anniversary FFA, and put together a montage of his highlights. Looked sort of like what you’d get if you put a shark into a tropical fishtank. Can’t deny the guy’s got amazing reflexes, though! Go watch. Thanks, CyReN.(Louis Wu 17:54:41 UTC)

RTX Day 1 Halo 4 Roundup
Yesterday was CHOCK-FULL of goodies from RTX. Let’s see if I can summarize what’s out there:- The RTX Live Feed has archived most of the Halo 4 stuff – unfortunately, it’s not all separated. This video (which is 7 and a half hours long) contains the HORSE competition starting around 5:10:40, some convention shenanigans at 6:40:30, and the Rooster Teeth vs the Community Halo 4 matches at 6:51:00.
- Those last two matches were actually pulled out into this video, as well.
- A fan did a really nice job of putting up the 343 Panel (including Forge), the PIG competition, and the Q&A with the audience in a YouTube video.
- The same fan captured the second of the two community games, also on YouTube.
- Bravo posted a live commentary vid on some Infinity Slayer on Haven – thanks, CyReN.
- A fan captured a full FFA game on Adrift (offscreen) in two parts (1 | 2) – thanks again, CyReN.
- The Halo Forge Epidemic put up a group impressions video of the new Forge reveal – if you’re looking for comments from folks who use this stuff every day, watch this. Thanks, Gabotron ES.
I’m sure I’ve missed stuff – but this is a pretty good start. 🙂 (Louis Wu 17:45:49 UTC)

Light ’em Up Redux – into the mind of a duck
Over at IdleDuck.com, pete_the_duck has been documenting the revamping of a cool concept that didn’t work out the first time. Part 1 shows you what the original game looked like, how it worked, and why it wasn’t fun. (This was published Tuesday.) Part 2 shows off some prototyping of ideas to try and make things better. (This was published Thursday.) And Part 3 shows a time-lapse video of the creation of a vehicle-free variant that shows a lot of promise – super cool! Thanks to pete for stopping in and updating us!

Friday Caption Fun 58
Last week, for our Friday Caption Fun festivities, you provided quips for an image featuring a Spartan that apparently confused a Warthog for a bull. Here are the top captions you left for that particular image!
“NPC drivers? Where we’re going, we don’t need NPC drivers!” –Novus 7
“Good thing Warthogs don’t have mirrors, or the effort in stealth for this assassination would have been wasted.” –Lights Shadow87
“Hold X to hang on for dear life.” –Silver Fox5478
“After seeing that there wasn’t a mounted turret on the back of the new M6 Warthogs,
Jimmy tried to crawl into shotgun. Sadly, he never made it.” –m3rkMS
“Initial test data showed that Spartans were practically invincible. Later test data recommended seat belts.” –IkeBlues13
“Bill took the meaning of his Extra Vehicular Activity helmet FAR too seriously.” –CoconutJones
“It’s almost impossible to catch a cab on this planet!” –Scott Edward Crews
“I’m scared to hold on, but I’m scared to let go!” –Blu3MoonRising
“Worst. Carpool. Ever.” –Coux73
Now that we’ve wrapped up that picture, let’s start a new one. Up for your captioning pleasure this week is an image featuring perhaps the only situation where tank does not beat all. Soak in the screenshot, then leave your witty and relevant quip in a comment. Off you go!
