Halo 2 / Halo2 Anniversary Cinematic Trailer Comparison!

My good friend MixMaker117 shared the link with me to his comparison video of Halo 2 and Halo 2 Anniversary’s Cinematic Trailers. It’s so cool to watch these side by side. Graphics have come a LONG way. Yet still, the old trailer brings on the feelings again.

Enjoy the vid below and please give Mix a LIKE on the vid.

Where Halo meets Mayan Art

Yesterday Kotaku posted an article regarding a fan-made piece of Halo art. I agree with their sentiments that it feels more than just fan-made. It’s ART.

Marty O’Donnell posts TWO vids of the recording of some Reach music!

First, before you watch the vid, I want to say that ˆ’m not fond of the name of the vid. That being “Halo: The Return”. Halo never left, some of it’s fans did. Yes, we could converse about how Halo changed, but we’ll save that for another time.

In the meantime, take a look at this homage vid that shows some sick pro plays and builds up to the reveal of the Master Chief Collection. Continue reading
