Halo Lamp is Heaven Sent For Artists

As a guy who dabbles in the arts, I can sympathize with anyone who struggles to find the perfect light for their creative projects. The Halo Lamp by Sander Muller offers a seriously good looking solution to this problem with the Halo Lamp. Because there is a circular ring of light and no bulb, it minimizes any annoying shadows that might interfere with your work. The Halo Light is a custom job, so be prepared to shell out some serious cash for it—but if you have ever been into an art supply store you are already well acquainted with exorbitantly high prices.

This folderpiece—made by reader Damien Nozay—is the first entry in our ongoing desktop clutter art contest, sent just a couple hours after the announcement. Minutes later, reader Zachary Colen sent us this retro folder illustration of the 'Killjoy' medal from Halo 3: More »

My Little Pony-Master Chief Hybrid Confuses My Sexuality

Once upon a time, a little Pony named Lily met Halo hero Master Chief. They fell in love—for little Lily's feminine side complemented Master Chief's machomanness— and had a son named Halo Silver. OK, I made that up. But I have to justify this perturbing vision sold for $151.57 on eBay. Confused? Me too. [eBay via TechDigest]

Samsung Silencio Is Unofficial Halo Vacuum Cleaner

The Samsung Intergalactic Empire, makers of everything from memory chips to TVs to gas tankers and probably complete Death Stars, also make vacuum cleaners like the new Silencio ("silence" in Spanish.) It doesn't only trap 99.3% of the dust with a suction power rating of 360 "air watts" (whatever that is in the metric system; perhaps 124.5 Jenna Jamesons) and is coated in silver nano-particles to avoid bacteria and smell, but it also looks like a a sci-fi helmet. And not any helmet, but our favorite: Master Chief's helmet. [Samsung via OhGizmo!]

And the best part is you can actually own this bad boy if you are up to the task of outbidding the competition. Here is the skinny straight from the creator: More »

Papercraft Halo Dropship Makes For a Cheap-Ass Holiday Gift

If you enjoyed creating the Master Chief papercraft figure, you can now spend your holiday downtime tackling another Halo related project —the D77 Pelican Dropship. Plus, if you are poor or stingy, you could always pass the finished project off to one of your gamer friends as a gift. After all, the gifts you make with your own two hands are the best right? Just don't let anyone know it was completely free. Additional image after the break. More »

Stupid Guy Sues Microsoft for $5 Million Because Halo 3 Crashed His Xbox 360

Randy Nunez's Xbox 360 is being beaten to death by Halo 3, so that it "routinely, consistently, and systematically 'froze,' 'crashed,' or 'locked up.'" Naturally, this "disrupted game play." For his pain and suffering of having to reset his console to resume getting teabagged, he wants $5 million and class action status, 'cause "many consumers" are having these issues. Sorry. My bad. I take full responsibility for shooting people in the face that hard. I thought I was just knocking them off the internet, but apparently it's crashing their 360s too. I apologize. But seriously.

Giz/Kotaku Halo 3 Match...and Reluctant but Heartfelt Tubgirl Apology


Hey people who've been following the tubgirl stuff. I've been thinking about it for the better part of the day, and I'm sorry, I should have used a lesser image for the prank. Yea, it wasn't very thoughtful of the readers of Kotaku, many of which are viewing the site from work. Also, to let you know, Brian was pretty upset with me, and I apologized to him a little while ago. It's cool between us now, and no matter if you keep reading Giz or not, you should definitely keep reading Kotaku. Don't let the horseplay stop you. More »

Unicorn Chaser: We're Not Backing Out of Halo

Hey folks, that "forfeit" post the traitor Mark Wilson posted? That's fake. We're not backing out of our Halo match tonight. In fact, Kotaku is going down. Hard. In fact, I think they're even a little scared. [BTW, the Tubgirl was my call, not Jason's. He's a nice guy. So send your mail my way, not his. If not, continue to bathe in the afterglow of a wonderful retaliatory prank, and enjoy the unicorn chaser. Thanks for having a good sense of humor. - B.Lam] More »

We'll be liveblogging it as well, so expect to see lots of "8:53: I just teabagged Crecente." To get a sneak preview of how that looks, check out the picture above. More »

How to Comment: OK, ANOTHER Change of Halo Plans

Apparently Kotaku "doesn't have time" this Thursday to participate in the Halo match. They have "more important stuff to do" and "will have to move it to next Thursday". If you ask us? Our ever-increasing rank on Halo makes them nervous—and they need more time to practice. Either that, or they're actually busy. Which one do you think is true?!

The above quotes are not actual quotes.
