Death by intelligence.
Nothing Begets Something At Halo Babies
A lot of new stuff over at Halo Babies: not just the usual fan art, but also some flash work by CompassGhost and a video of Halo 2 cutscenes by zero. Editor's Note: Warning, the movie (quite obviously) contains spoilers. Thanks mrsmiley.
Panoramic Views Of Halo 2
[image:8816 left hspace=5 vspace=5 border=0] BOLL has created a set of panoramic views of Halo 2, using a TV capture card, a modified controller, and the blind skull. Check it out over at HBO.
That's Gotta Hurt
Mister Chief returns with a new toy in a guest Halo Babies strip by BOLL. Thanks mrsmiley.
Stop, Children, What's That Sound
Stuntmutt today praises Halo 2's surround sound, but points out a sound that might have been added to good effect.
Massive Fan Art Attack
Halo Babies is being invaded by fan art-- more than a dozen new entries today. Thanks mrsmiley.
And Now For My Next Trick
[image:8779 left hspace=5 vspace=5 border=0] I've written up a short account with photos of my recent trip to London-- or, rather, the side trip to have a few beers with Stuntmutt, author/artist of the Halo comic One One Se7en.

Apple Store Opening, Regent Street
Conveniently enough, this Apple Store on Regent Street in London was scheduled to open at 10 AM, November 20, my last day in London. Unfortunately, rather than queueing up the night before with the other Apple zealots, I was out having a few beers with Stuntmutt, meaning that by the time I arrived at 11:00, there was a six hour wait-- far longer than I could afford to stay in town and still make my flight.
Stuntmtt & Narcogen
From left to right: Stuntmutt and Narcogen share a few beers at The Heights, a hotel bar in the West End of London.

New Fan Strips At Halo Babies
Oh, wait... that sounds like... nevermind; there's new stuff at Halo Babies. Sparkie has submitted a new fan comic as well as 4 more pieces of fan art to Halo Babies. There's also a new desktop by nrek and new forum avatars. And according to mrsmiley, more is on the way tomorrow.
Orange You Glad He Didn't Say Banana
Stuntmutt horns in on Halo Babies territory during Gruntsbane's absence. The result is inexplicable... I hope. Because if not, I expect I'll be hearing the explanation shortly. Luckily it will be cushioned by beer.
UPDATE: Okay, now I got the joke, and I wish I hadn't.
Penny Arcade: Halo 2 Like Halo 1
Gabe and Tycho seem to have the same opinion of Halo 2 as Halo 1: they love multiplayer and hate the campaign:
