Bungie Brand Halo 3 Condoms
August 27, 2008
Since we already know Bungie is NOT working on Halo 4, I guess they need to stretch Halo 3 for everything it’s worth. The “Hired Gun” at Microsoft Game Studios will be developing Halo 4 and it should come out sometime in 2010 at the Xbox 720 launch. While browsing various blogs on the net, I came across an obviously edited condom photo that was definitely worth posting. The wrapper says “Finish the F**k” which could really have multiple meanings depending on your opinion of the series. The image was posted on Girl Gamers, but they didn’t mention where they found it.
New ‘Halo Wars’ Box Art, Same Nebulous Date
August 25, 2008
Halo fans may not be getting any new details on when the strategy-flavored Halo Wars will be hitting console-side outside of “early 2009,” but you can enjoy some new box art in the meantime.
There sure are a lot of people backing up the three Spartan characters present. Looks good enough to grab the attention of the casual gaming crowd, at least.
“What?! I can play with three Master Chiefs?”
There goes a few million copies sold right there. Does the box art sell it for you?
Master Chief gets Lucky with Nude Hot Chick!
August 18, 2008
Let me warn you and say the link is NSFW. But this chick really knows how to get with the hottest character in Halo. The Master Chief! Owen Good over at Kotaku, linked this story back to GamerFetish.com. But be warned the site is very (Not safe for work)
I’ve never been a big fan of Halo 3, I know I’m nuts, but if anyone would get me to play, Ann Angel could help charge my Xbox controller. Kezins would like to ask you gamers, do sexy women featured with video games help sell the game?
Again, listen to Tony Clifton, this link is very NSFW! Gamerfetish.com
Love the smurfs shirt, I wonder if she’s an 80’s chick?
‘Halo 3′ Picks Up Edge Award
August 12, 2008
If you are into video games, you more than likely read Edge - the videogames magazine and website. They have just awarded Halo 3 the Edge Award for Innovation at this year’s Edinburg Interactive Festival. This was a surprising choice considering the game was going up against Grand Theft Auto IV, Portal, Rock Band, Super Mario Galaxy and Wii Fit. Although Halo 3 is my favorite game of the ones listed above, I feel like Portal and Rock Band were actually more innovative.
According to the reps at Edge, the game won due to it’s “integration and coherence of Halo 3’s online content”. While I certainly believe that the Halo series has one of the best online setups in console history, it wasn’t a huge improvement over Halo 2. Maybe I say this because I miss Halo 2’s maps…
Nerd Alert: Halo Kid - The New “Star Wars Kid”
July 14, 2008
You remember that “Star Wars Kid” video where he takes broom sticks and pretends they’re lightsabers? Well, another dorky kid takes Halo Origami to heart. Check out this hysterically made video using Halo props. My favorite parts are 0:43 (the sock slip), and of course the blue and yellow Warthog. Instant Classics!
E3: Microsoft Press Conference Expectations (Rumors)
July 12, 2008
We expect an exciting press conference this Monday from Microsoft at E3. There are plenty of rumors out there, so we’ll try to only report the ones we feel are credible. The biggest rumor we expect is the announcement of Halo 4. Word on the street is that the game will NOT feature Master Chief as the main character. If this is true, it could possibly hurt the franchise. I just hope the lead character will be up to snuff.
Other things we expect:
- ‘Rock Band 2′ will be featured.
- ‘Dragon Age: Origins’ should be talked about.
- Microsoft will add some hype to ‘Dead Space’
- Perhaps we’ll hear something about Fable 2 having online co-op.
- Xbox 360 price cuts and new SKU!
With any E3, it’s hard to say exactly what will happen, but we’re fairly certain that at least a few of the things I mentioned above will take place.

Halo’s ‘Chill Out’ Remake Bound for Xbox Live — FREE
July 3, 2008
Bungie’s third Halo game has been regulated to second place in the Xbox 360 online space for a while now by a certain future-proof’ed Call of Duty, but it sure loves its fans.
In a move that Microsoft will likely see as a missed economic opportunity, the remake of the Chill Out map from the Halo 1 days, Cold Storage, will be available for FREE on July 7, according to Bungie.net.
Luke Smith also talks a bit about an interesting throwback wrench being thrown into Halo 3’s online game play on Bungie Day:
“Beginning on July 7, there will be a 48-hour long seven-player FFA playlist in Halo 3’s Matchmaking where you can turn the calendar back to 2001 and control l Rockets, Invis and Snipe.”

New Halo Wars images have been floating around the net and we finally tracked them down. There’s nothing mind blowing here, but it’s an interesting look at some of the things to look forward to. I didn’t expect Warthogs with paint jobs, but I am sure there will be many surprises with this game.
