Part machinima, part live action, all awesome.
IAMDANK sends word of a, uh, montage? Something like that. It's really a mix of several video styles, but none of the individual pieces seem to suffer as a result. Check out his brief description and link to the video below.

You struck an Elite for Massive Damage!
Every wondered what Halo would be like if it took on the helm and atmosphere of Final Fantasy? Well wait no longer, my friends. Hitting your opponent with 58 hit points of damage with the Assault Rifle has never promoted more map movement.

Halo 3 comic book-y goodness.
The ever gracious Mr. Susskind has once again stopped by our offices to deliver another issue of his masterful webcomic, Chaos Theory. He's also delivered some kind of cryptic challenge, but unfortunately for him, he's already lost. Read the words and hit the links below to check out Episode 11 of Chaos Theory, "Yesterday's Villains."
"Hello Bungie.net,
This is Adam Susskind on week eleven of Chaos Theory wondering if he'll ever get a chance to do some laundry.
This week I bring you the greatest thing ever to happen to Halo3 Webcomics since 3 hours ago when Urk posted his interview with Jim Stitzel!
This story follows some fairly under used characters rather than some of the more common ones. If you've never read the series before, feel free to take it slow and enjoy all of them by reading through the back episodes, available at a "ChaosTheory.Halo3webcomics.com" near you!
In this post I'll take the opportunity to challenge Urk to see who will get his hands on the Mythic Maps first! I've got this win in the bag.
Yup, just another grueling three weeks.
Here she is: Episode 11: Yesterday's Villains
Enjoy, and remember, you can't spell Urk without the, uhm, "Urk."
Peace,
Adam Susskind, Writer and Producer, Chaos Theory"

"Whoa, this is different."
Not one to subscribe to convention, TTL Demag0gue, the creator of Reclaimer, Tied the Leader Gunslinger, and benefactor of
Halo 3 Webcomics, eschewed the standard question and answer format in favor of pics, panels, and fancy schmancy dialog bubbles. If you've ever wondered what drives Jim to pump out his awesome comic week after week, or why he's committed himself to helping others up the quality bar of their own competing comics, check out the inline comic below. Click to make big.
Big thanks to TTL Demag0gue for taking the time out to not only answer our questions, but to do so is such a unique format. Pretty awesome guy. If this is the first time you've come across his work, make sure you check out the links above, or simply end your reading here with a quick click to check out his ongoing webcomic,

A fresh start. Same stupid conversation.
Last time around, we had our Recovery One series before Reconstruction. We wanted to use that short storyline to set up the back story of Reconstruction and save the "what have the guys been up to" for the big movie.
This time, we're using our mini-series to stay with the guys and see what they're up to between stories. If you've been with us a while, you know that means "less plot, more stupid". And this is a whole mini-series full of dumb.

A faithful remake of "One Final Effort", using Mario Paint Composer 2. Link to the video following the brief description offered by GuruXander6060.
"This took around 8 hours for those of you who are wondering, and is probably my most exotic but satisfying project yet. There are definitely a few spots where I went quite horribly wrong, and the latter half of =Halo3=4= just sounded weird, mainly due to the pitch restrictions of Mario Paint. But do enjoy what I have here to offer!"

Looks like the latest Arby 'n' the Chief made its way online this Saturday. The Xbox Live drama continues. Naughty language.
"With Master Chief at his side on the sofa, the Arbiter is taking refuge within Snowbound's underground cave to avoid the masses of raging rioters everywhere across Xbox Live in response to the in-game glitches causing their Katana body pieces and Security shoulders to disappear. However, he is not alone; three other players are taking refuge with him, one of them obviously on the brink of insanity, but can any of them be trusted?"
