Achievement Guide – Leave It Where It Lay
RC Master put together a new Achievement guide for the Anniversary achievement “Leave It Where It Lay” – complete Two Betrayals on Legendary without picking up a new weapon. He uses the Bandanna skull, so if you’re looking for a guide that shows you how to do this while conserving ammo and grenades, you’ll have to look elsewhere – but it’s a non-trivial challenge even WITH infinite ammo. Watching this guide can help you plan out where the baddies are waiting for you, and what techniques work on specific areas. Take a look!(Louis Wu 13:30:55 UTC)

A look ahead
Computer and Video Games has put together a summary of what we know so far about Halo 4 – and compares it to the beginning of Star Wars’ second trilogy. Here’s hoping that particular comparison is offbase.(Louis Wu 12:13:03 UTC)

Halo 2 Pop Fiction
SIX min WHISTLE stopped in with word of a recent episode of GameTrailers’ Pop Fiction (a show that looks at myths and urban legends about games) – Episode 17 looks at two legends from Halo 2, the Golden Warthog and the Scarab Gun. Very nice presentation of the evidence in both cases! Go watch. (The forum post contains both SD and HD links, so choose your poison.)(Louis Wu 12:10:17 UTC)

Can you feel the lag tonight? (remix)
A few weeks ago, we pointed out a song written by ncsuDuncan and sung by Tomasooie – sound quality was the biggest lack. This bothered Photolysis, so he did something about it. And I hate Mediafire, so I’ve rehosted the final product (3.6 mb). It even comes with cover art!(Louis Wu 18:10:33 UTC)

Mongrel Conception to Killer Assets
OXM UK posted an article that tries to nail down why Halo is more important than other Xbox shooters. Not sure I buy it all – but it’s an interesting read. Thanks, ElzarTheBam. (Louis Wu 18:07:32 UTC)

Halo Bulletin – November 30
Last night, very late, the Halo Bulletin hit the web (thanks, ZaneZavin). Amidst tips to improve your Halo gaming experience and a photo montage of 343 employees participating in Movember, you’ll find details of the changes set to come to Halo matchmaking next week. Warning: the overwhelming sentiment on our OWN forum is disappointment – you might find some of the changes surprising. This is, as always, available in our own Halo Bulletin Archive (with added features like real lists and such). (Louis Wu 15:40:06 UTC)

Achievement HORSE 51
The second match of the Rooster Teeth Office HORSE Semifinals was posted recently (AchievementHunter.com | YouTube) – Michael faced off against Marshall, who apparently has some Halo skillz he never admitted to. The competition goes all the way to round 9 – who’s moving on to take on Kerry in the Finals? Watch and see! Thanks, hezekiah.(Louis Wu 15:34:19 UTC)

A hint of things that might come
So Metalingus627 stopped in with a request for 343 – he wants to see the Battle of Earth given its due in fiction form. One of the responses to his thread came from Leviathan… who already had this idea, and may or may not actually follow through on it! (Even if he doesn’t, the splash art is fantastic.)(Louis Wu 15:31:23 UTC)
