    We start off today’s news on a more emotional note… HBO stalwart mad.max paid us a visit to remind us all that it’s been a staggering nine years ago now since the Halo – and more specifically Bungie – community lost one of its brightest beacons, Brian Morden, or *Ar-Isildur as he was known to many. His post gives a link as well to the Foundation set up in his name. If you were never privileged to meet his acquaintance, you’ll want to check out this link, which will give you a glimpse into this amazing person’s life. If you get a chance, stop by the forums and celebrate his legacy by sharing a story. Leaving readers with a good memory and a big smile has to be the best way to remember such an awesome friend.

    From Alex:

    This is a Halo 3/Reach montage from h0lmb0m, edited by himself, entitled “Express.” The gameplay is very good, featuring your traditional Multikills while also featuring your rarer sick single kills and low Multikills. The incredible diversity of this montage keeps it fresh throughout its entirety, and the bloopers/reactions do a fantastic job giving the video a light-hearted, fun atmosphere and conveying the enjoyment that h0lmb0m experienced as he was gathering the footage for this video. The editing is also very good. The syncing and flow are great, and there are some sweet transitions here and there. Overall, there aren’t many videos like this one nowadays, and it’s simply a marvelous experience all around. 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!

    The Running Riot Interviews HC Redemption



    From Kete:

    The amount of Halo fan films in production are increasing but there is one that is upon us now. The first episode of Helljumper dropped (yeah, I said it) on the interwebs back in January with much fanfare. Tonight we will premiere Episode 2 before it goes public on YouTube later in the night. Following the premiere will be an interview with our guest of the evening, Helljumper’s Director Dan Wang. An amazing opportunity to chat with the creator of the series right after the episode is released.

    Join us tonight! Green Room promptly at 7:45pm ET. Premiere and interview at 8!

    In a recent unconducted survey, it was found that 87% of HBO members don’t wear pants when reading Hedgemony’s comics. Well may the moon rise on yet another Samurai Fronk masterpiece, as the greatest love-peddler in the southern hemisphere brings us a community-cameo’d Valentine’s Day special edition of our favorite finned fighter. It’s strange. It’s questionable. It’s beautiful. Go and check it out!(GrimBrother One 20:10:04 UTC)

    OXM UK recently added another proposal to their “Fair Trade” featurettes, where they muse about trading an iconic XBOX character away to another console in return for one of their own exclusives. On the block today is trading the Master Chief to Nintendo for Mario. Go and see what they thought about the deal, and use this thread by ElzarTheBam (who let us know about this piece of news) to let us know either why you’d turn the trade down, or why you must be nuts!(GrimBrother One 19:38:44 UTC)
