The latest news about the Halo series of games from Microsoft
Halo is a fictional universe. However, sometimes we catch sight of things in real life that remind us of our favorite science fiction video game franchise. This particular series, titled Halo in Real Life, showcases those very moments. Enjoy the subtle Halo references sometimes spotted when out and about in the real world, and if you have a picture you’d like to submit for possible future inclusion, send it to bsangel[at]halowaypoint.com!

The Halo Waypoint forums are currently down for maintenance. Apparently they wanted the day off to hang out amongst the visible masses of liquid droplets in the sky. While we anticipate them staying suspended in the atmosphere, we do expect them to be back online later today. If you don’t think you can survive another second without talking to your fellow forum goers, you can chat with them (using 140 characters or less) via the Halo Waypoint Twitter list.

Halo Map Raters shows off maps created by the community through reviews and gameplay. Some members of the community (Larry Tanng, Francis, and jediforce6) have created a sick version of what they think Wraparound will look like, but in Halo: Reach Forge. Enjoy!

We start at 6pm on Wednesdays, and we test a variety of content throughout the night. The cool thing about this event is you have the possibility of having your content considered for matchmaking through the Community Cartographers, which is a major stepping stone in getting your name out there as a forger.

bs angel note: One, five, and fairly significant (the weapon has a reload animation between each shot) in its current iteration. 😉

From Alex:
This is a Halo 3 dualtage from h0lmb0m and Grilljake, edited by h0lmb0m himself, entitled, “Jaymocking” (you’ll understand the title when you watch the video). The gameplay is unconventional to say the least, but given how similar montages are nowadays, it’s a wonderful breath of fresh air. The editing is well done, some of the custom medals look really good, and both the soundtrack and ending are great. Overall, this is a fantastic, original video, which is definitely worth the watch. Enjoy!
Some people show their love for Halo by playing the games. Others get a relevant image permanently placed upon their body. Enjoy this particular example of a Halo-related body modification, and if you have a picture you’d like to submit for possible future inclusion, send it to bsangel[at]halowaypoint.com!

The Flaming Ninja Challenge is an obstacle course for Halo: Reach that was made back in October, 2010. This impressive video, however, is much more recent and features STY Shooter performing a no-death speed run, completing the entire obstacle course in 5:32!
On My Six is the latest HaloChallenges Multiplayer challenge for Halo: Reach. Players are welcome to play any game type found in the Anniversary, Competitive and Community playlists of Reach’s Matchmaking.
The challenge concept is simple, but will take some effort to successfully earn all of the objectives. Our On My Six Challenge has nine objectives, each of which is specific to a particular in-game medal. For each objective, players are required to rack up at least six (6) medals within a single game. While it is completely possible to earn enough of the required medals in a single game to claim multiple objective awards, players are certainly not expected to tackle all of these objectives at one time.
On My Six is set up in such a way that players can step away from their strutting the usual stuff on a favorite weapon or playing style and showing other players just how versatile, menacing, and destructive they can be around the battlefield. We can all appreciate those that master something in Halo; however, this challenge shifts the focus to recognizing and rewarding players that are able to demonstrate more of a Jack of all Trades type of quality.
HaloChallenges.com is proud to announce On My Six is live and ready to play!
