Halo Archive Lets Fans Relive Their Best Halo Memories, While Campaign Evolved Rekindles Nostalgia
As "Halo: Campaign Evolved" brings players back to where the legendary Xbox franchise began, nostalgia for the series' early, arguably golden years, has surged. But while fans are rediscovering that vast ring, another project offers a chance to revisit something far more personal: your own journey through Halo.
Halo Archive is a fan-created website designed to preserve and make accessible past Halo multiplayer memories, allowing players to explore old statistics from an era that helped define online gaming.
In the Bungie era, players had access to detailed online profiles via Bungie.net, where they could track their progress, view match reports, and analyze their multiplayer performance. When these services faded, much of this history became difficult, if not impossible, for players to access. Halo Archive is now breathing new life into a portion of that history.
Halo Archive is a searchable database where you can explore your old Halo 2 and 3 records and rediscover the games that shaped your most memorable gaming experiences.
You can revisit a wealth of information: the number of hours you spent playing (and when you were at your peak), who you played with the most (as well as who you played best with), and who you encountered along the way. You can even discover who your greatest rival was.
The site operates on an API credit system. You start with 200 credits, and each analysis costs credits based on what you ask Halo Archive to explore.
Halo Archive isn't the kind of site you'll spend hours on, nor is it one you'll return to frequently. It's simply a fun way to kill a bit of time and get a small dose of nostalgia, perfect for a lunch break or when your boss isn't looking. Not that we're encouraging that...
Head over to Halo Archive here; it only takes a few minutes to request access. Once you're there, you'll feel like you've stepped back into 2007.

Review of "The Last House": A Thriller That Misses the Mark
Summer is often accompanied by a new streaming horror film. I discovered "The Last House" a few days before its release and, even before watching it, suspected it was a typical concept—one that could either work or fall flat. With skilled direction and a solid script, it had the potential to be

While I experienced *Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones* on GBA, *Path of Radiance* on GameCube, and *Radiant Dawn* on Wii, my true initiation into the *Fire Emblem* universe was with the excellent *Shadow Dragon* on Nintendo DS. This was, remarkably, the eleventh installment in the series. These f
