    Many Halo fans enjoy the tangible toys that allow us to act out our Halo stories in a real life setting. This image-centric series, entitled Figures in Action, shows exactly that—your Halo figures in action. Enjoy the playful pictures, and perhaps even find inspiration to take a few of your own!

  • Repopulate Halo 3 – April 7

    A couple of weeks ago, we got a note from Chris, letting us know about an event being planned by the Halo subcommunity at Reddit. On April 7, there will be a push to repopulate the Halo 3 servers and revisit this classic (and still-online!) title. We held off on posting news about for fear of letting people know in time to forget. However, it’s beginning to catch on in other parts of the Halo community, so maybe now’s a good time. Greenskull has just posted a video exhorting you to participate – go watch! (While you’re watching Greenskull, he also posted a video summarizing the Wraparound info from the Halo Bulletin – you know, in case you don’t actually read.) (Louis Wu 14:12:20 UTC)

    As if bs angel doesn’t already enjoy using that phrase enough, last night she caressed our eye holes with a new Halo Bulletin featuring some neat tidbits of information on the Halo 4 multiplayer map Wraparound, a couple community questions answered, and doughnuts. And since I’m feeling particularly affectionate towards Wu today, check it: local yo. Go give it a look!(GrimBrother One 14:05:07 UTC)

    General Vagueness showed us a recent article over at the Halo Fanon Wiki titled “Halo: Ruined FOREVER“. It’s not what you think; it’s actually a pretty funny satirical piece that will make a lot of long-time Halo fans (and more specifically, Halo forum-goers) giggle with understanding. The article features a good quote from GV himself, as well as mentioning some other pieces connected to HBO members. Go and check it out!(GrimBrother One 13:49:19 UTC)

    We’ve mentioned the recent “Working at 343 Industries” video before, but GrimBrother IV noticed that it was now in glorious high-definition. It’s still a great watch, and if you hadn’t seen it before, here’s your reminder! (GrimBrother One 13:45:39 UTC)

    I made these to add to all the Wheatley and Spark artwork found on deviantART. Wheatley was made out of felt, and Spark was made out of cardboard and foam. Enjoy!

    Well, I have to say this is one of the most enjoyable montages that I’ve made in awhile. I think because the music is just a little different and the gameplay is beast. I hope you enjoy!

    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!

    Huh. There’s a passionate group of gamers turned filmmakers who want to show you how Halo has changed the world of gaming, and our culture – and they’ve turned to Kickstarter as a way to make it happen. They need $80,000, and they’ve given themselves just over a month to collect it. Swing by the page and read about the project (they’ve also got a Facebook page and a Twitter feed, though it seems to have been suspended) – see if you think they’re worth tossing some cash to! Remember: Kickstarter projects require full funding before any money is collected; if you pledge some money, and they don’t hit their $80,000 goal, you’re not out a penny. Thanks to CYBRFRK for the heads-up.(Louis Wu 16:44:34 UTC)
