Halo has always been strong on the music. I imagine this comes from the cinematic vision of the game; from the outset the wanted the music to match. I don’t think there are many games that have had their themes made available as a Guitar Hero download, after all. There’s a lot going on with […]
The battle of the computer game generations
Freddie just goes from strength to strength. By the time Geek Native posted this video it had been seen more than 2 million times. Freddie’s channel has 3.5m subscribers and nearly 700,000,000 video plays. It could be fun to try and work out how much money he’s making off the channel alone. YouTube’s made it […]

Video game planets challenge
This video was created by Tim Hijlkema (#FB) and has already shot past quarter of a million views in just a day. How many computer games can you recognise from their planets? I got, oh, just shy of ten. Some are easy; I got Portal and Assassin’s Creed with ease. Halo too. The question is […]
Halo: Helljumper trailer
Helljumper is fan made Halo film. It’s due out in January 2012. Actually, Helljumper is a series of films that follows a single ODST from before the Covenant War to the Fall of Reach. The films are adapted from Tobias S. Buckell‘s short story “Dirt”. It looks awesome. Films like this go a great way […]
E3: Halo 4 trailer
Thanks to a pesky little leak from Microsoft’s own website – we knew we’d be getting both Halo 4 and a reboot of the franchise. That doesn’t mean there was reason to turn away from E3’s Halo 4 announcement today. This video – at risk of being YouTube yanked, I fear – captures the all […]
Crysis 2 story trailer
I did not play Crysis but I’ve heard a lot about it. I heard two things; it destroys your machine and if you survive that then it is a lot of fun. The game seems to be a bit of a cross between Mass Effect and Borderlands in style. Let me justify that; there’s a […]
Halo Reach: Defiant Map pack trailer
The Halo saga continues. We have rumours that they might reboot the original but that does not mean the current holder of the Halo flame is extinguished. Just announced for Halo Reach is a new map called called Defiant. We’ve got the trailer below. There are three new maps; Unearthed, Condemned and Highlands. The pack […]
Halo Grunts made from LEGO
I think the Grunts in Halo are kinda cute. Sure, they’re often trying to shoot you and they can get in the way when you’re in a gun fight with something serious – but they’re funny. When they run a way they’re really funny. If you’re a PS3 fan and haven’t played Halo at all […]
Halo Ghost model
The one-man Covenant vehicle officially called the Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle is a fan favourite. That’s to say; it’s more commonly known as the Ghost. The Ghost is about 4.2 metres long, weights in at 560 kilograms and uses a Boosted Gravity Propulsion Drive. The weapon system is a Vairant Class-2 Engery Weapon. If you […]
