    This is a Halo quad sticktage from Technickal, Toastyame, A Yellow Snowball, and Titanium, edited by Savagr, entitled “Blues Brothers.” The sticks are good, actually showcasing a couple Multikills here and there, and the editing’s good, too, featuring a lot of good theater work. Enjoy!

    From AgentPaperCraft:

    Test Night with Crafty is a weekly event dedicated to the forgers of Waypoint as convenient means of testing content for matchmaking consideration. It is also a great way to get constructive feedback on your map variants and game types. It will also provide you with a player base to help test your maps and game types through the community testing gamertag. Your content will also be observed by a secret member who reviews and suggests maps for matchmaking; this could mean thousands may eventually battle on your creations! Get more information in my thread in the Recruiting section of the forums.

    From FBWalshyFTW:

    This is a Halo 3 trick jumping video from Resix, edited by himself, entitled “Closure.” I wasn’t the biggest fan of the soundtrack, but a lot of the jumps are insane, featuring several very creative and surprising jumping mechanisms. And yeah, the editing is trick jumping video editing, but there’s actually some syncing here and there. Enjoy!

  • Idle Ducks are the Devil’s Waterfowl

    Your Idle Duck comic infusion for the beginning of the week: Busted! takes a look into the life of the Monitor, These things are always rigged suggests there MIGHT be an issue with gametype confusion, and It’s the truth and you know it makes me think pete_the_duck is getting frustrated with unsportsmanlike conduct.

  • MC X Tekken X Street Fighter = A New NotCanon.net

    Elzar “The News” the Bam dropped by with a link to an article from OXM UK that talks about how Capcom tried to get Master Chief into the upcoming Street Fighter X Tekken (as well as Marcus Fenix from the Gears of War franchise. Unfortunately, it wasn’t to be, but it would certainly have been interesting to see John-117 take on Panda! And disturbing, of course. Also related, GrimBrother “Attention Hog” One (wait that’s me) ran across a slightly-related article on IGN where they muse that having an energy sword-wielding Covenant Elite as DLC in Soul Caliber V would be pretty awesome. I would have to agree. How about you?(GrimBrother One 20:58:23 UTC)
