Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade.

Bungie shows Cold Storage. Remake of Halo CE's Chill Out.

Bungie previewed an unreleased Halo 3 map in San Diego this weekend at an MLG event. It's named Cold Storage and is a remake of Chill Out from Halo 3.

This will certainly get the attention of old school Halo fanboys who have long been crying out for smaller slayer maps. Chill Out is certainly a good pick.

What other classic Halo maps would you like to see in Halo 3?

MLG is hosting an image gallery of the map: http://www.mlgpro.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=152

Some YouTube shakey cam footage of gameplay on Cold Storage:


Through the Fire and Flames completed on Expert 100% FC at 987,768 points.

It's done, iamchris4life did it. He's considered the best player ever. He's the first person to legitimately FC the song, it's not faked. I'm just saying that once; haters and doubters, this is not your time.

Just so you know, there's a bunch of shocked profanity at the end of the video that I found to be quite amusing. His reaction is priceless.

It's sheer win.

EndWar Beta

http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3168021

Registration for Tom Clancy's EndWar, a RTS game coming out for the Xbox 360, is now available. Beta testers can play in "over three maps, with 1v1 and 2v2 matches available for play." You need to be an Xbox Live Gold member with at least 3GB of hard drive space on your console.

$500M week for GTA IV. HALO 3 did $300M . XBOX 360 version outsells PS3 version.

Grand Theft Auto IV has sold $500M worth of games in its first week of release. For comparison, GTA IV sold more copies in one day (3,600,000) than HALO 3 sold in its first week (3,300,000). That figures to a $500M first week for GTA IV compared to HALO 3's $300M.

The numbers are staggering for the dual platform GTA IV which was released in a PS3 and XBOX 360 format.

We know 6,000,000 copies of GTA IV were sold in the first week. VG Charts estimates that the XBOX 360 version sold 3.3M units versus 2.6M copies for the PS3 version. Those are pretty close figures considering that the XBOX 360 has sold 6M more consoles than the PS3. Evidentially and not surprisingly, PS3 owners are loyal to the GTA series.

And is Microsoft regretting not expanding the HALO universe to other platforms?

Perhaps the development costs of making a version of HALO 3 for the PS3 wasn't feasible. Okay.

But what about say Halo 2 on the PS2? There are an estimated 50M PS2 consoles out there right now compared to just 17M original XBOX consoles.

Obviously, there was a massive install base. After they see GTA's numbers, is Microsoft regretting making HALO exclusive to the XBOX family?
