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 .

Toy Review: McFarlane Halo 4 series 3 Commander Palmer
The packaging is quite nice. I like the slim packaging as opposed to the wider ones from series past. For those who collect these carded, it will take up less space for sure, whether you display them or store them. Scroll on for the pics and my review of Commander Palmer! Continue reading
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?
Episode 08: DRIP, DRIP, DRIP - Keegan-Michael Key
Peace Talks
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

New Halo Mega Bloks Fireteam sets hitting store shelves!
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.
This set is very similar to Fireteam Eagle. The disadvantage here is that it has one less figure. That color scheme though is much better, IMO. Continue reading

Halo Community Update 5.12.15
As we get closer and closer to the end of May, the weeks start to blend together. The days get longer, news and announcements slow down quite a bit, and teams across the studio focus in on upcoming experiences. For the Halo 5: Guardians team, this means perfecting the polish and presentation of new, never-before-seen goodness that awaits. Across the studio, the MCC team hammers away on upcoming game updates. I sit somewhere in the middle, furiously running back and forth between the two, checking out what they’re working on, and getting in on as many playtests as I can, including the latest Halo 5: Guardians Arena maps, the stormy shores of Relic and the devastated streets of New Mombasa found within ODST, and [REDACTED], which we’ll be sharing more about later this year.
