Gamespot Guide For PC Halo
Scimitarex also gets props for pointing out a Halo Guide at GameSpot (free registration appears to be required). I'm not sure if this is an entirely new Guide, or if they had one for the Xbox version, but this one mentions new weapons like the flamethrower, so it's clearly geared for PC Halo players.
New PC Halo Patch Coming Soon
Randy "DuvalMagic" Pitchford of Gearbox says that lots of player-requested features are going to be in the next update, due out soon. Thanks to Scimitarex in the HBO forum.
First, Tell Me The Magic Number
The angryzenmaster gives a lesson in physics today, explaining angular momentum and magic numbers and how they can be used to launch the Master Chief into the air. What I want to know is how this forces the player below the mesh...
Now Is The Time On R.net When We Dance
Blue's News points us today to a German-language review of Halo at YiYas. According to the squishy yellow fish that starts wars, they missed co-op mode and don't like Chill Out much. Like many other reviewers, they wondered why the port took so much time compared to the amount of new material (no new single player levels, for instance).
Qtrack Down A Game
The latest version of Qtracker, a game originally created to do matchmaking for online matches of Quake or Quake engine games, has added support for Halo. More information about the latest version and about the program itself is available from the Qtracker homepage. Thanks Louis Wu.
Halo 2 Information Leaked?
Mat "angryzenmaster" Noguchi posted a note on his blog, warning those that anybody who says they know some inside info on Halo 2 is either wrong or about to be sued. Hmm. Does that mean some unlucky bugger has violated his NDA somewhere? One can only speculate.
Two More PC Halo Reviews
Some more additions to the ranks of PC Halo reviews today courtesy of Blue's News: GameOver and JIVE Magazine.
GameOver wished Halo had been over sooner, calling it "mind-bendingly, stultifyingly, dull and repetitious". But they liked the multiplayer and eventually rated it 83%.
