Halo 3.5 (sort of)
Heh - VelocityTino was given an assignment in a video class - dialogue was supplied, and he had to produce a scene using it. He decided to create a live-action Halo short. Amazing work for one guy. Check it out! (Louis Wu 19:10:53 UTC) (permalink)
That's totally not how Bungie envisioned her. Really.
Over in his RvB journal, Luke McKay posted an interesting interpretation of Cortana yesterday - we've added it to his gallery here at HBO. Looks like Big Goalie Dan was first with the news. (Louis Wu 15:06:09 UTC) (permalink)
Hva er nytt i versjon v5?
ScUmMy let us know that HaloNorge.com has totally revamped their website, with a brand-new ladder system. If you're Norwegian, and you play Halo - check it out! (Louis Wu 13:58:42 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3 for $40
Time is short, because I was out yesterday afternoon - but the Best Buy website is having a Springtime Sale that ends today (it started yesterday), and Halo 3 is selling for $39.99. If you need an extra copy, now's the time to snag it! (Louis Wu 13:54:10 UTC) (permalink)
Personalized Halo 3 Profile Images (a little late)
Yesterday, Hawty McBloggy posted a piece about personalized Halo 3 profile images, created by Bootsman. I read it, said to myself, "yeah, we've already covered that", and moved on. (I remembered reading an email from Bootsman, pointing to a post at Fyreball offering this service, and I remembered writing a short newspost about it.) Later in the day, Hawty sent an email, saying "I know you've probably covered this, but I searched and couldn't find it, so I'm letting you know." I searched myself, so that i could suggest to her how to more effectively search next time... and I realized that the post didn't exist. (I blame Ferrex.) So: if you're interested in personalized Halo 3 profile images, and the description about how they're made (in Hawty's blog post) makes you think "that's just too much work" - swing by either info post for contact info, and let Bootsman do the work for you! Update: Bootsman asks that if you want to add your name to the queue, that you visit his Bungie.net thread, rather than the Fyreball one - he's trying to keep everything in one place.

Happy Birthday, HIH!
We missed it when it came by on Friday - but then, so did they. High Impact Halo has just celebrated its fourth birthday - man, how time flies! Go give 'em a hug. (Louis Wu 13:05:07 UTC) (permalink)
Panoramania
The latest panorama craze apparently kicked off a month ago when Crab sent us a batch of images he'd been working on. This inspired a number of other fans to create their own images, or release them. (Halo panoramas are nothing new - but sometimes, you're exhorted to action when you see something that grabs you; this seems to have happened to a bunch of artists recently.) Last week, Crab sent us three new images to add to his collection; the email managed to get buried until today. Go look, though, because they're great shots from the end of Sierra 117. In our forum, radiant penguin added his own site to the panorama cornucopia; he started working on these when Tied the Leader opened Haloramics back in February. radiant penguins' shots are different from many that we've seen here recently, in that he's actually tweaked contrast and saturation, yielding images that are bolder than your average screenshot. Feedback on the forum is quite positive - so be sure to browse the Panoramas section of Halo Prints! (Louis Wu 12:20:45 UTC) (permalink)
