The Battle of the Speedruns
RC Master re-released his sub-13-minute SLASO run from earlier this week – now with commentary, and picture-in-picture, so you can see what weapons he’s carrying and what his shields look like. Pretty cool! Again, chock-full of time-saving tricks for finishing this week’s LASO Challenge.(Louis Wu 15:50:02 UTC)

G4TV has the first part of an article about building good multiplayer FPS maps – one of their panel was Adam Crist, Design lead at Certain Affinity and a 10 year Bungie veteran who worked on both Reach and Anniversary. Interesting read – check it out! Thanks, ZaneZavin.(Louis Wu 18:23:27 UTC)

Pelican Data Sheet – now printable
Stephen Loftus reworked the opening graphic in his 2005 article on the Pelican Dropship in response to a fan who wanted to print it out as a poster; it now scales very nicely. (It also contains some new info, and the silhouette is of the original Halo Pelican, rather than the Halo 2 version shown in the article.) The PDF is available from the original article, if you’d like to print your OWN poster! (Louis Wu 17:05:27 UTC)

ONI Sword Base LASO in 10:04
Nak3d Eli re-ran RC Master’s newest speedrun on ONI Sword Base (well, he turned the Blind skull off, because it’s not actually needed for a LASO challenge), and shaved two minutes off RC Master’s time. Even if you watched the earlier run, this one is worth a look; Eli’s commentary contains little tidbits that will make certain parts easier.(Louis Wu 16:49:07 UTC)

Get Ready – Ten Seconds!
Laird pointed out a video posted on the Child’s Play website; it was fan-made, and references no games DIRECTLY… but it tips a hat to a whole bunch of games – including Halo. Really nicely done! (Louis Wu 16:42:28 UTC)

No ‘HO!’s Were Harmed In The Making of This Bulletin
This week’s Halo Bulletin went up late last night, and contains a delightful array of festive vernacular from Mrs. Santa Claws herself. The true highlight is the recounting of the recent Charity Dinner held to benefit Child’s Play. Some amazing items were up for auction, and some amazing generosity was displayed. In all, just over $350,000 was raised. Peace and goodwill indeed! Well done game industry, well done. So go check out bs angel’s telling of the evening!(GrimBrother One 21:33:25 UTC)
