Salaya 3 – A Halo: Reach Montage
You cannot watch this video.
Please Enter your Date of Birth
From Alex:This is Salaya’s third Halo: Reach montage, edited by himself. The gameplay is great, showcasing Salaya’s usual dose of crafty, entertaining, unique tricks instead of the traditional Halo montage Multikills. The editing is old school like in all of Salaya’s other montages, consisting almost entirely of basic effects and cinematography, yet still getting the job done rather nicely. Enjoy!

Detailed looks at new Invasion maps
If you read this week’s bulletin, you might have watched the 2-minute video highlighting the new Invasion maps being rolled out as part of the June Matchmaking playlist… but that was really just a quick overview of the 4 maps. The Halo Reach Forge Maps crew have posted videos showing these maps in depth, and with actual gameplay so you can see what works and what doesn’t. They’ve posted: Broadcast | Floodgate | Refinery | Overgrowth. Watch them all; they’re 7-10 minutes of information that will give you a leg up on your competition! Thanks, Gabotron ES.(Louis Wu 13:30:27 UTC)
