Josh Holmes of 343 answers Halo 5 questions!

Yesterday was a bonanza if you were looking for some answers about Halo 5.

Josh Holmes, 343’s studio head for Halo 5 Guardians, took to twitter and answered several fan questions about Halo 5 Guardians. Below are those questions and answers:

Screen Shot 2015-04-28 at 6.03.14 AMI’m actually a little bummed about this. I liked how ODST’s campaign was. But it’s certainly not a deal breaker. After all, the previous campaigns with Chief have all been linear. Continue reading

HUNTtheTRUTH: Was one of the answers there all along?

Whether 343 intended to or not, at least ONE of the answers that we as listeners to the HUNTtheTRUTH series was there all along and we didn’t see it. UNTIL NOW!

I had this epiphany during the middle of the night. Follow along with the graphic I compiled below.

HtT Revealed FIN hfflHere is the original HUNTtheTRUTH logo unaltered.

 

 

 

 

 

 

If we highlight (in RED) the same letters that appear in each word and only ONE of each…

 

 

 

And take them away….

 

 

 

 

 

You are left with these letters……

 

 

 

 

 

Unscramble them and we get this!

So the answers Ben was seeking from the people ONI supplied to talk to him with were untrue.

 

It was there all along!!!

HFFL read Dave sent me the following text he found on a gaming web site:

To possibly get your voice in the Hunt the Truth episodes do these steps.

2. The people who LOVE Master Chief and don’t appreciate Ben poking around.
3. People reveling in the anarchy.

Upload a 15-20 second voice recording to YouTube.
Set it as “Unlisted”.

U.S. military base gets a visit from a ‘Halo’ Warthog

This is a reblog from the Daily Dot, with special thank to the folks at Podcast Evolved for posting the link on their Facebook fan page.

It’s not every day that you see a video game brought to life.

Joint Base Lewis-McChord, outside of Takoma, Wash., recently hosted an unlikely visitor: a Warthog vehicle from the Halo video game series. The Warthog is an armored reconnaissance vehicle with an mounted anti-aircraft gun, and while it looks like a real combat vehicle in the game, it’s completely fictional.

ISSUE 21

canonfodder-4-23-15-23426c7d42084869b887e0d27668358dWelcome back to your weekly dose of Halo story-related yumminess. Last issue, we took a closer look at the brand new Halo: Spartan Strike, which is out now for Windows 8/8.1, Windows Phone 8/8.1, Steam, iPhone, and iPad. If you haven’t already checked this out, you absolutely should.

This week we’ve got some Universe housekeeping to attend to, another look at the latest #HUNTtheTRUTH, and a chat with a small person who plays a big role in helping keep the Universe in order. Let’s get started! Continue reading

Halo Escalation #17 is out!

This would have been posted yesterday. However, I hurt my back, so I wasn’t able to do any blogging. So apologies for the day late article on this.

This particular issue doesn’t have any of our normal cadre of heroes. Instead the story is about a backwater planet after it’s been glassed. The issue goes back and forth between what happened in the past and what is going on ‘today’. Below will be a discussion of the issue, so SPOILER ALERT! Continue reading
