HaloChallenges.com – Mobile Mayhem, Multiplayer Medley, and Objectified
From HC Redemption:
HaloChallenges has been designing and implementing player challenges in Halo games for a very long time. The work this site has put into finding new and exciting ways to take Halo games goes beyond what the game creators set out for us and has been inspiring many players, other community sites, and even the games’ creators. Here are our three newest challenges, should you choose to accept them.
Mobile Mayhem
The objectives in this challenge are specific to vehicle kills you earn playing Halo: Reach Multiplayer Matchmaking. For each objective, players are to earn the required kill count for a vehicle in a single game. YOU DO NOT need (nor are you expected) to earn all objectives in a single game; you are allowed to play and submit multiple games to acquire all challenge awards.
Mobile Mayhem Challenge Homepage
Multiplayer Medley
The objectives in this challenge are a bit more mixed in requirements. Some are medal-specific, while others have to do with weapons and individual performance. Pay close attention because Multiplayer Medley has a wide array of awarding you for your efforts. YOU DO NOT need (nor are you expected) to earn all objectives in a single game; you are allowed to play and submit multiple games to acquire all challenge awards.
Multiplayer Medley Challenge Homepage
Objectified
Objectified is designed to offer players an opportunity to show they can hold their own in a slightly different multiplayer environment. This challenge is not at all about the players who sit back in objectives games, slaying for K/D or other selfish reasons. No, this time around players who apply the appropriate level of skill, luck, and strategy will be rewarded for diving into the fray and working to help secure a victory for their team. You CANNOT earn all objective awards in a single game; therefore, you are obviously allowed to play and submit multiple games to acquire all challenge awards.

Update on a Halo fan artist
ScOuRgE3 stopped in to announce a few pieces of Halo-related artwork he created recently – they’re gorgeous! (You might remember him from a few years ago – the last time we’d heard from him, he’d nearly finished up a series of hand-drawn scenes from each of the original Halo levels. Great to see where he went from there!)(Louis Wu 14:41:27 UTC)
