Hey guys and girls. Well it's been a weird week for me. I was peer-pressured in to buying Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 which has taken up most of my time. Having missed the last two COD games I wasn't sure I would be able to get into it as I thought I would. Ended up getting a copy of MW1 to catch up. Well I enjoyed it and even repeated a few levels with my brother as we couldn't put it down.

After my week nearly finished I decided to pop back to Halo for the double experience weekend. This got me back into the Halo mood. After enjoying a few fun games I spent a while on Xtival and browsing about which lead to me checking out on some Halo DLC's.

Anyway I'm enjoying the new Halo: Waypoint feature. After adding guilty spark to my Avatar and looking see what achievments I have left to do, I then looked at some of Waypoints videos. I loved the sneak peak at Production IG's work on 'Halo: The Duel'. As a Production IG fan with one of my fav's such as 'Ghost in the Shell' (Which I'm mental for, Motoko!) I'm very curious to see what unfolds with the spin off as well as how the new artistic medium used will give the added Japanese flavor to the piece.



So after a taste of what's to come I was happy to share the new feature with my brother who in return treated me to watch an advance copy of 'The Babysitter' from the Halo Legends collection, which he got from his friend over seas in Japan.

As big Manga and Anime fans we loved the action and even decided to forgive the small J'pop-esqe persona with the ODST's. As we are Halo universe fans we preferred the view of the hard core ODST's pictured from 'The Flood' and 'Cole Protocol'. Halo 3 ODST's weren't what we expected but the 'Firefly' themed team gave a nice nostalgic mood for us to enjoy the game.

Studio 4°C's The Babysitter Originally sparked questions with the up to date Halo universe fans about Linda-058. After the start we quickly discover a new Spartan; Cal-141 who is the commander of the mission. We quickly meet a small ODST team and learn a few of their specialties. We meet a familiar face as Dutch Makes an appearance. After meeting our well known heavy weapon specialist we meet a few new faces such as O'Brian the team sniper, Cortez the squad sergeant and Checkman the final member.



The team is sent on an important mission to assassinate a prophet who is controlling a weapons factory nexus. We see Cal-141 lead the team into a mission. For those who have seen the trailer will see the traditional 'Hell jump' deployment which then leads to a bit of CQC Spartan action against a brute.

Well I'll leave the conclusion of this feature a surprise for everyone to see for themselves. While I'm looking forward to the other Halo: Legends feature shorts, Prototype has gained the most anticipation from me and I can't wait to watch it. Here is a link for a preview of the first 5 minutes of the feature 'The Babysitter'.
