Division Zero Teaser
Interesting – Zee-V70 stopped in to announce a teaser for Division Zero, a machinima set in the Reclaimerverse. Cool idea!(Louis Wu 18:37:53 UTC)

The Challenge Challenge
Seraph XXVII wants to hear your best idea for a Reach challenge. He wants it so badly, he’s got two Noble Map Pack codes to give out to his two favorite entries. You’ve got a week – get thinkin’! (More details about what he’s looking for, and how you need to get it to him, in his forum post.)(Louis Wu 18:28:01 UTC)

FIFA Stadium
b0anerges let us know about FIFA Stadium, a Forge map that lets you play… soccer. Golffer? Solf? Stickball? I have no clue what you call it, but it looks REALLY cool. There are several videos included in his forum post (gameplay, a look at the full arena, and some behind-the-scenes stuff on scoring), and a post at Forge Hub, as well. Go check this out – and get playing!(Louis Wu 14:13:28 UTC)

DWT Productions – Halo: Reach E.O.A. Episode 6
MelkorTheGreat stopped by yesterday with word of DWT Productions’ E.O.A. Episode 6 – more Reach tricking. Don’t watch this while distracted; you won’t have any clue what’s going on! (That is: there are some pretty cool tricks in here, but they’re not explained at all; if you don’t pay attention, you won’t know what you’re looking at.)(Louis Wu 14:09:31 UTC)

Waypoint – Chock-full of Halo Goodness
Totally spaced on the Weekly Wrap-up at Halo Waypoint – there are a few things you may not have seen:- The Weekend Webcomic is a new episode of Master Chief’s Pets, a series started last year by warrioronlydude.
- There’s a new episode of Halo Reach: Headshot, covering Breakpoint.
- Death McGunz took Jonathan Coulton’s “Re: Your Brains” and added Halo footage to it. (Plus a bit more.)
- Sometimes, crates are evil.
- 8-Bit Brigade hosted a holiday fundraiser for Child’s Play, and there was plenty of Halo schwag for the taking. (This ended yesterday, unfortunately. Sorry.)
There are also plenty of screenshots worth seeing. And there are some exclusive bits you might have missed:
- MEGA Bloks’ Assault on Squad 45 is now up – both Part 1 (which we mentioned last week) and Part 2 (which is exclusive to Waypoint) – amazing stop-motion stuff!
- The Return, a story from Halo: Evolutions, was turned into an animated comic on Xbox LIVE back this spring, and makes its web debut now. It’s 20 minutes long, the art is spectacular, and if you missed it on LIVE, here’s your chance to see it.
- The latest OutREACH segment is an interview with XerxdeeJ, the leader of Tied the Leader. Great discussion about how a little bit of planning can make your Halo experience much more positive!
Go explore – there’s tons more! Update: looks like Assault on Squad 45 Part 2 is available on YouTube, as well, if you have any problem with Silverlight.(Louis Wu 14:05:53 UTC)

No! Wait! Oh, crap…
Over at NeoGAF, MrBig pointed out a Bungie.net clip made by Hotrod192 – it… sort of breaks canon. Spoilers, of course. (Louis Wu 15:41:15 UTC)

MLG Top 10 on Xbox LIVE: Episode 4
Looks like MLG’s Top 10 list is no longer on the web – because they’re selling it on Xbox LIVE Marketplace. However, the number 2 clip in their latest collection was a killtastrophe from Ure Mama – who was proud enough to put it up on his own YouTube channel. (Watch it quick, I’d guess.) Thanks, Arnie. (Louis Wu 15:40:31 UTC)

Digima – Watch the Spark
Luke McKay mentioned a machinima series called ‘Digima’ – it was created by DigitomProductions, and there are three episodes so far. It’s fun – go watch!(Louis Wu 15:39:58 UTC)
-
Reach Matchmaking Upcoming Changes
Bungie’s Jeremiah posted some upcoming playlist changes we should be seeing soon (no actual timeline given, and this is not a complete list). Some great stuff in there – give it a read! (Louis Wu 15:39:09 UTC)

AH: Bulletstorm to get a little more Epic
EA recently released a press release detailing the freshly announced Bulletstorm: Epic Edition, which will be available to purchase when the game is released on XBox 360, PS3 and PC on February 22nd 2011 for North America (25th for Europe). The Epic edition will include in-game bonuses for it’s online multiplayerm, including 25,000 experience points, visual upgrades for their iconic leash, deadly Peace Maker Carbine, boots and armour.
That’s not all though, as XBox 360 gamers will also receive exclusive early access to the Gears of War 3 multiplayer Beta, though there is no word on a release date of the Beta. So, if you were unsure about buying Bulletstorm this might entice you to do so, or may just get you more excited for the highly anticipated shooter once February rolls in.
In either case, you’ll have plenty of chances to kill with skill in 2011.
