We sent out an update to our supporters on the AmazYn Facebook page to show us their Halo Reach gameplay.  I have received quite a few gameplay links the last few days through different outlets (mainly YouTube), but if you would like me to show post your gameplay on the ReflectzYn website please “Like” our page and post a link in the comment status.

This video features Kniv3s “Perfection” on the map Pinnacle.  He positioned himself quite comfortably in the large tower for the majority of the game, pulling off several nice snipes and plenty of support fire.

Beams and the Buzz Rickson, two Japanese-based labels, hook up to design a new collection dubbed, “Modern Aviator.” The collection features a number of recreations from pre and post World War II eras. Jackets include the L-2 worn by Air Force, the B-10 worn by US Army Air Force, the B-15C worn by the US Air Force, and the US Navy G1 jacket. The unveiling of the collection come October 1st at a special event in Tokyo at Beams Shibuya.

Here’s the final version of Wayne’s track “I Am Not A Human Being,” offered in video form.  I’m anticipating a slew of tracks when he releases from prison, so here’s hoping to more Lil’ Wayne music in the upcoming months.

You may remember bits from this new track titled, “Lost in The World” from Kanye’s Facebook visit.  The opening of the song sounds very much like something from 808′s & Heartbreaks.  ’Ye’s GOOD Ass Job (last known title) album is rumored to be complete so here’s hoping this is an authentic “leak.”  Take a listen.

This video may be three years old, but it is pretty damn awesome.  The musician/artist in the video makes a beat from scratch using the MPC 1000 and Motif keyboard.  If you find yourself bobbing your head, don’t be alarmed.

Version 1 (v1) of the MLG settings released this past Friday and so began our official methodical practice regiment.  We have scrimmaged a wide variety of teams, including those from other games such as Gears of War and Call of Duty.  If you happen to have a team and are looking for scrimmages make sure to add my tag: “ArctYc zYn.”

As it stands, I am not overly fond of the MLG v1 settings.  I would have personally like to have seen sprint remain in the game and no “on map” power ups. Taking out sprint and substituting it for 120% (up 10% from H3) speed feels a bit awkward; players have the feeling of “skating” around the map.  Escaping enemy fire becomes non-existent as well, making it “more of the same Halo” rather than a similar, but new experience.

The settings (download here) use 120% speed, increased jump height, slightly altered gravity, and four stock maps that have been adjusted or substantially recreated.  The maps, in alphabetical order:

I know we’ve been quite busy over the course of the summer.  My brother launched a preview of TheTwittbook (currently under construction), I gave a glimpse of MyGamingSetup, and Skyllus launched Protips.tv.  You may have missed that tidbit of information throughout all of the commotion and Halo: Reach gaming going on.

This project was created and managed by Colin “Skyllus” Fogle.  He provided in-depth information on Protips TV which you can read below:
