    This video is based off John Carpenter’s “The Thing.” Four UNSC officers follow a downed Falcon that landed in a city.

    Halo: Reach Playdate - jggh Games



    From petetheduck:

    I have been toying around with the idea of puzzles that can only be solved in Forge mode. This is a simple introduction to that concept; on the rock spire in Forge World sits a single Warthog. Your task, should you choose to accept it, is to destroy that Warthog.

    There are no rules; destroy the Warthog by any means necessary. However, that is not to say I am going to make it easy. The Warthog is encased in shield walls. You are also prevented from approaching the Warthog by a teleporter barrier that cannot be deleted, marked by the blue line in the water. I’ve also taken measures to prevent use of the ‘delete all’ ability.

    You can download the map here: Forge Challenge. If you do destroy the Warthog, I’d love to see your film clip! For more details about submitting a clip, visit www.idleduck.com.

    This is Muggsy’s second Halo: Reach montage, edited by Muggsy himself. The gameplay’s good, showcasing many sweet Overkills. As usual, Muggsy delivers, demonstrating a very proficient mastery of establishing flow with great syncing, theater work, and effect usage. Enjoy!

    Chibi Master Chief Plush



    From Higginstuff:

    This Master Chief plush is the original green, and he is made entirely from super soft minky fabric. He is approximately 10 inches tall, and his arms have joints in them so they can move up and down. I really love how this plush turned out. He is sooo soft!

    Editor’s note: WANT.

    The latest Halo Bulletin is up – and it takes the recent Super Bowl as a metaphor for Halo’s current place in your life. We’re at halftime, folks. (I’m not sure whether that means that we’re getting ready to gear up again after a quiet time… or if they’re subtly telling us that Halo’s got another 10 years left in it.) There’s some stuff about stats (it’s unclear whether the voices of those who worry about the impending shutdown of Bungie.net’s Halo stats have been heard), some stuff about credits you can earn, some info from Frankie about his activities these past few weeks, and some questions from fans. Go read! (It’s in our Halo Bulletin Archive, too, if you’d rather read it there.)(Louis Wu 02:51:43 UTC)

    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!
