Halopedia – back on its own
CaptainTony stopped in to announce that Halopedia has moved – it’s back on its own domain now, no longer a part of wikia.com. For a site as big and content-rich as this one, that sort of news warrants a front-page post.(Louis Wu 18:57:38 UTC)

JonCJG Machinima Update
I need to start looking for these more often; I keep missing updates. Here’s what’s new:- One Life Remaining S2: Episode 11
- Arby ‘n’ the Chief S04E08: “B&” (2/2)
- Arby ‘n’ the Chief S04E09: “Digital Fruitcakes” (plus the production script)
OLR is a little confusing, Arby ‘n’ the Chief is not. Go watch!(Louis Wu 15:06:18 UTC)

Good Game, Guys
Avateur and UnrealCh13f met up with some Tied the Leader guys in Matchmaking last night – and the picture story of their contests is fun to read! Go live vicariously.(Louis Wu 15:01:29 UTC)

A Fistful of Arrows p. 4-5
Leviathan stopped in with pages 4 and 5 of his ‘A Fistful of Arrows’ graphic story – with every page, I’m more and more impressed. The art is spectacular, and the dialogue NAILS the characters. It’s not often I wish I could hold off viewing fan content until it’s finished… but this time, I’m frustrated that Page 6 isn’t up yet! Go see.(Louis Wu 14:57:55 UTC)

Halo: Reach – Final Thoughts
Over at Gamespot, Marcus Lehto talked at length about the making of Reach, and the decisions the Bungie team struggled with to bring us the game we’re actually playing now. It’s a fascinating read – some of this info has made it out before (usually in interviews), some is new (at least to me). Go read it, and see Reach through the eyes of its Creative Director. Thanks, darthbob.(Louis Wu 14:56:29 UTC)

A Prelude to Capulin 3
SicktistiK sent word of ‘A Prelude to Capulin 3‘, which is the first Reach-based montage in his and Emptyproductions’ Capulin series. It’s 9 minutes long, so I’m not sure what the FULL Capulin 3 will look like… but if you’re up for a lot of Reach multiplay footage, swing by!(Louis Wu 14:54:39 UTC)

RT: Extra Life with Achievement Hunter Tomorrow!

Good afternoon folks, I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that tomorrow Geoff and I will be participating in Extra Life. “What is Extra Life?” you might ask. Well, Extra Life is a charity event where you donate money to folks who have promised to sit down and play video games for a solid 24 hours. Geoff and I are going to be doing just that from 8am CST on Saturday until 8am on Sunday.
You’ll be able to tune in on Achievement Hunter to watch us live and chat along while we play games all day. I’m sure we’ll be also playing Reach and other games with folks throughout the day. We’ll be broadcasting live for the entire event on AHTV, so you can watch us slowly devolve into madness. We’ll also be having special guests drop by as well, so keep tuned for that!
You can read more about Extra Life at their official website, but more importantly, you can donate to the Achievement Hunter team right here. Just pick someone you want to donate to and click on the donate button next to their name. The money you donate will go to the hospital that that person has picked to play on behalf of.
You can also check out our Extra Life Group on here for more information on the team.
So, mark down a few hours to check out the antics from the Achievement Hunter office and if you have the ability to, donate a few bucks on behalf of sick kids. We’ll also be giving away a bunch of free stuff, so definitely come back for that! See you on Saturday!

RT: Movie Night
Last night Burnie, Jordan, Geoff and I went to see Jackass 3D here. I love the theater, but it was an odd juxtaposition.
…and I won’t give you any spoilers, but I had to walk out for one scene to avoid vomiting.
