One of the good folks at my local Gamestop hooked me up with this:
I just love stuff like this. Different than the normal collectible stuff.

Updated Halo Starship Comparison chart 11/18/2012.
I’ve updated the chart now to include a better UNSC Infinity. No longer will we have to look at the forced perspective one. I now have a straight side view. Still holding out for a better version than this one, however, this side shot will do nicely for now. (I’m ALWAYS revising this chart…)

Conan O’Brien Easter Egg in Halo 4!
IN case you haven’t found it yet, Jack and Geoff from Achievement Hunter show you where you can find the red-headed screwball himself and his lackey Andy Richter. (I mean that in the nicest sincerest way fellas)
They don’t show the whole thing, but it’s enough to get a laugh. Now it’s your turn to T-BAG Conan! LOL.

Shout out to ALL the blog visitors!
As always I get a high amount of visitors from the Untied States and I’m appreciative of that.
Of late however, I’ve been getting a LOT more visitors from other countries. I’m extremely happy to see that my blog has captured the eye of international readers. Not just those of English speaking countries (of which England, Australia and Canada are always the highest next to the States), but those of other languages.
In order of most visitors from other than English speaking countries the following are countries who visit the blog the most:
France
Germany
The Netherlands
Mexico
Sweden
Italy
I can’t see beyond the top 10 countries in my analytics, so if your country isn’t any of the ones mentioned above, then please tell your friends and fellow Halo fans about the blog and let’s have a little friendly competition to see if another country can crack the top ten list.
Again, I want to thank ALL of you for continuing to visit the blog, regardless of your country of origin. It is VERY much appreciated and helps to keep me motivated to provide Halo content.
My number of visitors before Halo 4 were about 2,000 a day (unique). That spiked heavily just before and during the week after the game launched to reaching 6,000 viewers a day (also unique). That’s trimmed off a bit to about 4,500 a day (and again unique). Still that’s excellent and again I thank you.
If you haven’t registered yet, PLEASE do. Registration is free and comes with the occasional perk of being eligible for contest prizes ONLY awarded to registered members of the blog. I’ve got some nice ones coming up, so now would be a good time to join! (Click the Register here! tab above or just follow the link to join.)

Halo 4 War Games daily challenges: 11-17-12
Whew okay, today’s challenges are going to be just that a challenge. 4 killing sprees in one match? I’ve got that in Halo 4 already, but only twice. This one is not so easy.
The next one…uh again with the Regicide…win three matches. Playing the gametype no problem, winning three? That will take a little effort. I’ve already completed the weekly challenge, so I’ll pass on this second one.
I hope next week’s challenges don’t involve Regicide. While it’s fun to play, I think I’ve played enough of it this past week to last for awhile. If the challenges are going to be based on objective gametypes, I’d rather see CTF, then possibly Oddball. My guess though since Regicide is one of 343’s new gametypes, that we’ll see some challenges having to do with Dominion or Extraction to get more people playing in those playlists.
To be honest, I haven’t played any Extraction games, so that might be a good thing to try out.
Whew, got a bit off topic….LOL.

It’s really cool to know people like your work. Even more so when they continue to feature it. I’m humbled.
Many thanks again to BS Angel for posting it on Waypoint.

An amazing Kat Spartan Cosplay!
Credit to Hypertrooper for the link to this via Twitter.
This is the best cosplay of Kat I’ve ever seen (not including the “official” one from Pax a couple of years ago).
Check it out!
What do you think? Pretty good huh? Lots of detail to this and obviously the person who designed it cared for that. The link really gives us a comprehensive look at how a quality cosplay outfit is made.

My Forward Unto Dawn graphic novel for episode 5 is featured on Waypoint!
Fan-made-Halo-4-Forward-Unto-Dawn-Graphic-Novel-Part-5
Woot! As always I want to thank BS Angel for posting this and relinking to the blog. I’ve had tremendously great reception to them. The Spartan Ops comic book is going well. Episode 1 of that was finished a couple of days ago and episode 2 is about 75% done. Hopefully that will be finished today. The only thing I’ll have to wait on is the preview vid of episode 3 to add a “Next in Spartan Ops” graphic.
