“Mistletoe? Wort’s that?” –oO DREWISH Oo
“Awww…. but all I got you was this sticky grenade….” –Coux73
“No, no! Mistletoe does not count when it is radioactive!!” –The Demon 0u812
“General Blarg was the first Sangheili to volunteer for the “Christmas” inter-species relations program.
He missed something in the fine print.” –Darkslayer18264
“Look Ma, no jet pack!” –Raging Striker
“Unfortunately for the Spartan, ‘kiss’ in Sangheili roughly translates into ‘Energy Sword to the face.'” –AnalogPh33r
“… and then he looked down.” –Prosperity Park

Now that we’ve wrapped up that picture, let’s start a new one. Up for your captioning pleasure this week is a picture featuring a heavily customized Warthog. Soak in the screenshot, then leave your witty and relevant quip in a comment. Off you go!

CES is taking place next week, and Frank, our resident Mister Chief-drawing Franchise Development Director, will be there, sitting on a panel titled “Hollywood and Games – A Transmedia Approach to Entertainment Content.” He won’t be talking about Halo 4, but he will be talking about the Halo franchise in general. Here are the details, should you find yourself in the Las Vegas area next Wednesday!

Hollywood and Games – A Transmedia Approach to Entertainment Content

Date: Wednesday, January 11, 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Location: N262

Speakers: Adam Boyes, Frank O’Connor, James Jones, Jeff Gomez, Marcus Gners, Ned Sherman, Peter Levin

Description: Hollywood content owners and the game industry have had a rocky relationship, resulting in a few cross-platform successes. What must occur to ensure that future franchises work well across platforms and media? How can all stakeholders – licensers, developers, publishers and distributors – get a fair return on their investments?

From Eagle0nFire:

Have you ever found yourself barrel rolling out of control? Ever wish you could stay on two wheels? Well, I am still learning how to do this technique properly but this is probably one of the most challenging things I have ever done in Halo. With a little bit of practice, you can try it, too! I warn you, though, this trick is very hard, very tedious, and may drive you completely nuts. Enjoy!

From Rooster Teeth:

We recently attended the 2011 Child’s Play dinner in Seattle, which includes a charity auction to benefit sick kids receiving treatment in hospitals all over the world. This week, the item we won arrived and we immediately hung it in a prominent place in the office. Without further ado, I present to you our one-of-a-kind masterpiece Van Doh by Frank O’Connor (oil on canvas 2011). Somehow Mister Chief added to the Rooster Teeth office has raised the stature of both entities. Two wrongs making a right as it were. Through art, progress.

For the kids!
