About Sal

I’ve got tons of experience with Halo gaming and collecting. I feel I have something to offer to the greater Halo fan community. Posts along the way will be about tips and tricks in the games as well as collecting and many more Halo related things. I’ll also repost interesting articles from the official site, Halowaypoint.com, or from fellow Halo fan sites. As I continue this blog, I hope to help gamers who want advice on the games, as well as any collectors with regards to where to find collectibles as well as deals, coupons and so on. You can also follow me on Twitter at: http://twitter.com/#!/HaloFanForLife or Facebook at: http://www.facebook.com/halofanforlife11. Welcome to my blog and I hope you’ll come back again and again. -Sal

HFFL Community night this Friday!

It’s been some time since I’ve held a community night .  So this Friday starting at 8 PM until 11 PM EST there will be a HFFL Community night on Halo the Master Chief Collection.  Depending on how many people there are we will be playing either custom games or matchmaking .  I do have two maps that I have designed that I would like for you folks to play on and give me your feedback .

HUNTtheTRUTH Episode 8: DRIP, DRIP, DRIP

FERO drops a bomb that ripples throughout human-occupied space, calling the Master Chief’s allegiances into question. Did the Master Chief do that? Or are there more nefarious elements at play?

This image has been haunting me ever since I first saw the video from Biko. I feel like the Master Chief is looking right at me. The incident report was bad, but this makes it so much worse. Continue reading

Four of the new Halo Mega Bloks sets shown from New York Toy Fair have started hitting store shelves. The following images are credited to Liam Schwickrath. (I did a little retouching to make them less blue in hue)

First up is UNSC Fireteam Rhino.
