There are only three weeks between E3 and the Rooster Teeth Expo, which means we always have to do a bit of hustlin’ (no, not that type of hustlin’) to get ready to come and see everyone in Austin. This year, we grabbed designers, producers, a Hoberman and threw them onto a panel, grabbed some in-house professional Halo players and threw ‘em on a truck with original Xbox consoles and TVs, brought Halo: The Master Chief Collection (for your eyes only), and we flew down some exclusive gear. A few weeks later, we were in Austin and ready to party with all of you.

HFFL Community Night tomorrow AND Mixer!

Posted on by

I will be a special guest on Podcast Evolved tomorrow. They stream live starting at 6pm. twitch.tv/podcast_evolved.

Right after the podcast, we’ll be going into Halo 4. Podcast Evolved will bring their folks and I hope that some of you folks will join in with me so that we can have a good turnout for a mixed community night. We’ll likely play a few games against each other’s communities, then mix the teams up with some from each group on each team.

HFFL Community night starts at 8pm and will continue on until Midnight EST.

If you want to join in on the fun, message me on XBOX Live at GT= HaloFanForLife1

I hope to see you there!

Halo 3 Tournament in Pittsburgh!

Game On logo
GameOn LLC, the very same business I used for last year’s HFFL LANstravaganza is holding a Halo 3 Tournament on July 19th from 11am-9pm.

I’ll be in attendance for some of the day. Likely not competing though, LOL. I’m decent, but not anywhere good enough to compete in pro-level gameplay.
