You might have seen large versions of these at Gamestop.
Whether you have or haven’t, the following two graphics (click to make much larger) will allow you to make your own, albeit at a much smaller size.
Have fun, but more importantly, BE CAREFUL (when cutting the pieces out).
Feel free to download and print. If you do make either/both of these, send me some pics and I’ll feature them on the blog!
Bad Taste
The Kig-Yar “stew” went a long way toward explaining the state—and scent—of the ship. What remained unexplained was how they had acquired such an abundance of eyeballs. Continue reading

We haven’t seen this since Halo Reach!
I for one am VERY glad this is happening.
Waypoint will have it’s own dedicated stats system on the site.
Regardless, people like Firestorm, who created the hugely popular HaloCharts are already gauging interest to start up a site.
If he does in particular, his site will most likely be my go-to Halo 5 stat site. The previously mentioned HaloCharts was an astounding site and built a large following of players not only checking their stats, but also finding other like minded gamers to play Halo with.
The following stats will be available:
• Service Record (Life-to-date stats for each player)
• Match History (Access to each match played)
• Carnage Report (Complete statistical breakdown for each player in a match)
At the moment the API is in private beta but should go public right about when Halo 5 Guardians launches.

Halsey has some distressing words to start this video out, huh?
Locke giving an ultimatum to Chief? Um, not going to end well for someone…
As for the song chosen, while I like Muse, it’s the words in the song that have me questioning things. “Noone’s going to take me alive” Hmm, if Chief is killed…
Look, I get it, 343 wants a new main character. That doesn’t mean they need to kill off Chief. Have a second character and a spin-off game. That’s fine.
This is a reblog from gamesradar.com:
If you’ve been keeping up with all the latest updates from developer 343 Industries, you’ll know the tantalisingly close Halo 5: Guardians will feature a new four-player co-op campaign (featuring a Spartan called Fred no less) and an new upgraded version of the Forge theater (set to release two months after the base game). But what about the game’s most lasting feature – that moreish multiplayer? 343 is hoping to add a new favourite to your online shenanigans with Warzone. The new mode may be the franchise’s most ambitious one yet, featuring 12-player teams squaring off against one another with a few AI and some colossal maps thrown in for good measure.
“Warzone was a lot more challenging than we thought,” recalls 343 Industries co-founder Bonnie Ross in the latest issue of Official Xbox Magazine. “And there were points where it did not feel like it was coming together. It was a huge bet for us. I think it was pretty nerve-wracking at some points, but there was a moment several months ago where people started getting good scores back from user research.”
Right from the off, 343 knew it had its work cut out if it wanted Warzone to stand out among Halo 5’s many multiplayer modes. “Someone said ‘Look, it’s going to be really crappy until we get this system working, and then we need this netcode to be supporting that, blah blah blah…'” says franchise development director Frank O’Connor. “Somebody in the production office had kinda drawn a line, saying: ‘This is roughly where it will start to be fun.’ If you do really good planning and production – and I think we pride ourselves on that – there shouldn’t be too many crazy surprises. But it does get nerve-wracking when you’re waiting for that breakthrough to happen, whether it be something as big as a mode or just specific weapon.”

This is a reblog from Halo Waypoint:
This week, you learned more of what’s to come in Halo 5: Guardians, and saw new sneak peeks at Halo: The Fall of Reach. You’ve listened as Maya’s situation rapidly escalated from bad to worse in the latest episode of Hunt the Truth. You’ve joined us in the celebration that Halo 5 has gone gold, which means that everything is just beginning. Not just for you, but for us as well. This week, we’ll take a closer look at Halo: The Fall of Reach – The Animated Series, more new Forge tricks, the upcoming MCC update, and more. Let’s get into the details.
If you aren’t yet familiar with Elysium City Primary Education Facility No. 119, or the origins of subject Number-117, you’re in luck, and you’ve come to the right place. As we announced at E3, Halo: The Fall of Reach – The Animated Series (which tells the origin story of the Master Chief and the SPARTAN-II program) is on the way and will be included with the Digital Deluxe, Limited Edition, and Limited Collector’s Edition of Halo 5: Guardians. The animated epic releases on launch day, and since we’re getting awfully close to that date, I grabbed some time from Executive Producer Kiki Wolfkill to get the latest. Continue reading

Greetings! You all just keep showing back up every week, don’t you? Welp, if you’re gonna stick around, we might as well take a look at some story-related Halo goodness together! Last week, we took a closer look at some of the alien vehicles you might see employed by Swords of Sanghelios and Covenant forces in Halo 5: Guardians. This week, we thought it would only be fair to give humanity’s eager engineers the same attention.
Before we get started, I’d like to take a moment to celebrate Halo 5: Guardians recently going gold. It’s been a herculian effort by the entire team at the studio, and we’re absolutely thrilled to be so tantilizingly close to being about to share the experience with all of you. And with that out of the way, let’s get to the task at hand! Continue reading
