Microsoft: international party poopers

Hey everyone! Here's a Halo update. As some of you may know, the Halo movie, rumored to be in production, is no longer being funded. It may never come about. Good news is, Halo Wars is coming out next year and Bungie is working on another unnamed Halo 360 game. Peter Jackson has switched focus from the aforementioned movie, to this game. I don't know about the validity of that picture of a Halo DS game, but being a DS owner, it would be at the top of my list of games to buy. Word is, Bungie was working on Halo for other platforms, but even though they recently went independent, Microsoft is still holding on to Halo licensing rights. Way to ruin it for everyone again, Bill. Oh, well. At least I've got Halo 3.

Skulls and Snowballs...

Well, winter's coming in soon, and you know what that means! No, not more time for HALO, it's time for sledding, snowball fights, all sorts of things. Well, and HALO too. So, here are some more HALO 3 tips.

Some skulls that are not mentioned in the guide, if you have one, are the grunt birthday party skull, which makes grunts explode with confetti when you headshot them, and the cowbell skull. This makes explosions bigger. The grunt birthday party skull is in level 2, in the pipes. The blind skull, which takes your HUD, is in level 1.

The best game ever...

You know... of course I got it. You know what I got. I would have posted about immediately, but I had to play it. HALO 3!!! The best game in this universe. It's awesome, I got it on the 25th. If you haven't played it yet, get over to someone's house who has it right away. There are a lot of new features that were not advertised such as a flamethrower, a fourth type of grenade, which is an incendiary grenade, and about a dozen equipment objects. Usually, I would have been the first to report on something like this, but I have school and I spent any time that I would have spent on the computer on my new Xbox 360 Elite edition. Anyway, I still haven't beat the game yet, but I will answer any questions about HALO 3 that anyone has. See ya!

The ultimatum on Bourne

Well, I saw the Bourne Ultimatum yesterday, August 3, and I have to say that it is possibly the best of the three. This is one of the only trilogies where I was not disappointed by any of the three. It seems as if every Bourne movie outdoes the last in almost every aspect, yet all are good. If you have not seen any of these movies, I suggest you do. If you have seen the others, see the new one. Note: the release date for Halo 3 is September 25 in America and 26 in Europe, not the 16th as I said in June.

Important update...

I was going to change this url, but all other options are taken. The url is still www.twilighterz.blogspot.com. Also, I have some sweet videos going up here soon, like the Halo 3 preview, which I'm sure most of you have seen. But, BIG news, I am posting the preview to... Halo Wars, the Halo RTS!!! Oh Yeah!!! The preview is very cinematic, and as far as I know, it is only on Xbox 360, unfortunately not on PC. Funny, because most RTS games are for PC. It takes place before the destruction of Reach, for people who know their Halo lore. A.K.A., before Halo 1, which means you get to command Spartan IIs! Additionally, the Halo movie was supposed to come out next summer, but was indefinitely postponed when Universal and 20th Century Fox backed out of the deal. Peter Jackson, the executive producer, said (paraphrase) that they will see the potential in a Halo movie when they see the Halo hype. E.G., when Halo 3 comes out. So, I don't know when that movie is coming out. Halo 3 is coming this September 16, I think. Correct me if I'm wrong.

P.S. There is a surprise video at the Twilighter Zone web page when I get it up. Don't miss it!
