Rampancy

Skeletor posted a guitar tab in Power Tab Editor format, as well as a recording, of The Maw from the Halo soundtrack in the HBO forum the other day, and was kind enough to let us add the file to our Sheet Music collection here at Rampancy.

Bungie manages another Humpday win, this time against HaloMods. (Corollaries to the rules predicting Humpday Challenge results: having Ferrex equals a win, but losing Frankie can also create a win, with or without Ferrex. Thanks to Louis Wu for the idea. Why does the Coagulation game summary show a screenshot from Headlong? Because those are shots of HaloMods mods --Ed.)

February 9 has now arrived, and unless you count the resumption of Bungie.net stats tracking, or the Top Story at Bungie.net about RSS and Halo.Defas.Org, then I think it's safe to say that nothing terribly exciting has happened yet, nor is it likely to.

There are those who said something would happen today. What are they to say now?

An article at GamaSutra about 2004's Most Creative Games quotes Coray Seifert of Large Animal Games as crediting Halo 2 for being more than just another pretty FPS:

I know I'll take some flak for this, but I really enjoyed the creative implementation of Halo 2's new gameplay features. To fans of the game, it felt intuitive and familiar, but it also gave the player a lot of new toys to play with (dual wielding, new vehicle options, etc.). It was also accessible for folks playing the game for the first time, which you have to respect as well. No, its not the next Sims or Katamari Damacy, but I think its very creative and original for a big-budget sequel.

Thanks Joystiq.
