Rightfully so, but a very Halo World Championship-themed Community Update this week from our prodigal, GrimBrotherOne. There is the obvious and heavy amount of content for our version of the Super Bowl, but some cool stuff in particular are the free stuff you can get for watching on Mixer this weekend, your last chance to get the Arena-themed Legendary Crate and some recaps of other HCS events. Ske7ch did a great job culling content from the community as well (check out that aesthetic map for the Titanic)!(MacGyver10 21:56:07 UTC)

While we might need to take this with a grain of salt right now, it seems the Halo TV series might have a filming location and start time for this October in Budapest, Hungary. As of right now, we have no confirmation (no, fake Kiki accounts don’t count) if this is true or not, but hopefully this is actually going to happen!(MacGyver10 15:16:29 UTC)

Nick Brick took the three shot kill weapon we all now and love, and put his LEGO spin on the classic M6D Magnum! This things has a working trigger, moving slide to ‘reload’ and removable magazine! Pretty impressive work! (Thanks Cody Moore!)(MacGyver10 22:09:14 UTC)

Have you been seeing all this hubbub over a revamped and revitalized Master Chief Collection? If you’re looking for way to get involved, make sure you head over to HaloWaypoint to see what you can do to sign up and help out!(MacGyver10 21:44:57 UTC)

The IWHBYD skull has always brought some funky lines from our favorite Halo characters, and MetalHeadSpartan has taken the $#!7 Elites say and crafted a cool video again to explore those funky lines in their full glory! You can see some of his older stuff here. (Thanks Morpheus!)(MacGyver10 14:31:55 UTC)

Rockslider spends some time with the ‘free ammo trick’ from Halo: CE that they have come to call ‘drop reloading’. He has the article and YouTube links here and the high quality and download links here.(MacGyver10 14:23:54 UTC)

Been waiting (or dreading) for 343 Industries to jump on the battle royale wave with Halo? Well, you may need to wait a little longer for that, but in the meantime, FyreWulff has scripted and forged together a pretty fun battle royale gametype in Halo Reach! Let them know what you think in our forum!(MacGyver10 14:20:41 UTC)

While we all patiently wait for info on a new Halo game, GrimBrotherOne took time to fill us in on some Halo Wars 2 updates, recent HCS tourneys and more in the most recent Halo Community Update at HaloWaypoint. Nice to see the Halo stories branching out of the militaristic tendencies we’ve seen, and the first Halo romance novel heading our way (pretty sure Grim modeled for the cover)!(MacGyver10 14:52:56 UTC)

GrimBrotherOne should have known better than to make his HaloWaypoint password, ‘gruntnipples‘, as it looks like YapYap the Destroyer made his way into the content management system for 343’s website guessing that one. There is some interesting consequences of Yapyap The Destroyer’s meddling, as it looks like Halo Wars 2 gameplay is going to change up a bit now. Check out the full post over on Waypoint for the interjections of a grunt legend, and Yapyap’s ramblings as well!(MacGyver10 21:10:29 UTC)
