A couple of new Halo Legends reviews – IGN seemed to like it a lot (thanks, Minime637), while Kotaku wasn’t so sure (thanks, Avateur). Go make up your own mind! (Louis Wu 12:58:51 UTC)

The MLG Halo 3 Forge Forum has put together a 12-map pack with some gorgeous work inside – swing by the MLG Forum for info and screenshots, or just visit the Forge Forum’s Fileshare to download the maps. (Actually, the count is a bit suspect; the PR and the MLG Forum post both say 12 maps, but there are 18 maps marked ‘MLG H3FF MP2’ in the Fileshare. Either way – there’s a lot of play options.) Check it out! Thanks to both urk, who posted this on Bungie.net yesterday, and Rehn Miller, who contacted us directly, for the heads-up. Update: apparently, we got our link from Bungie.net, which had it wrong; they used the link for the FIRST mappack. The correct link has been swapped in above (and right here, too). Also: “the map pack contains 12 featured 4v4 maps, with 2 more 4v4 maps being up to the judges standards of gameplay, the rest are FFA, 1v1 and 2v2.” Hope that clears things up!

Yet another music video from AssaultGodzilla – this one pays tribute to Halo Legends. As always, great timing!(Louis Wu 12:57:25 UTC)

There’s a new Community Spotlight up at Bungie.net – in the spotlight this go-round are the Mythic Photographers. As you might guess, they’re big on screenshots. Read about what drives ’em on B.net’s front page, and then check out some of their favorite files in the Bungie Favorites section! (Louis Wu 12:56:35 UTC)

gex sent word that Clyde & Roy (the pilot) is online – this is something I’ve never seen before. Really nice editing! Go watch it on YouTube – here’s hoping there’ll be more eps in the future! (Louis Wu 18:30:09 UTC)

Tons of new movies highlighted today on Bungie’s Comm Chatter:

• IGN’s Top 10 Halo 3 Kills for the week of February 10 is full of funny moments.
• Frantic is… well, frantic (it’s a minitage). I have a headache.
• Remembrance is a Campaign Screenshot Montage from whitesoxrule.
• Community Carnage: The Show is a Halo 2 montage designed to remind you about all the awesome stuff in that game.
• Arby ‘n’ the Chief in LA is up to episode 6 (we last mentioned Episode 3, so we missed 4 and 5, I guess). Say hello to Sonic, Mario, and more.

That’s a lotta videos!(Louis Wu 17:51:58 UTC)

HB sa’ lamee, Grunty, surtic, and xlax007 have found a consistent way to get to the bottom of the Halo 2 Control Room pit – this is normally impossible, since there’s a death barrier at the top of the hole. They’ve figured out a rather amazing way of keeping that death barrier from spawning in the first place… you should watch. Thanks to Ducain for pointing this out. And thanks to the HIH crew for continuing to push the limits of what’s possible!(Louis Wu 17:14:17 UTC)
