serpx noticed that halo3.com now has quite a bit of new content (updated about a week ago) – including tidbits like the fact that the M6D is returning (though we know nothing about its specs), some story details that have not elsewhere been confirmed b…

Today’s One One Se7en shows off Stuntmutt’s punache (pronounce that any way you like) while looking at the new artwork released by Bungie last Friday. (Which reminds me – Friday’s strip is now visible; don’t blame mnemesis, blame his tools.) And that d…

Martin Duffy stopped by our forum to point out a public reading he’d had recently – it wasn’t Halo-related, but he attributes some of his success in fiction writing in general to Halo, and to the HBO fanfic community specifically – good on ya, guys! (A…

macegac noticed an article at Playstation Universe, looking at series and how they’ve evolved, graphically, over the years. Halo, interestingly enough, had TWO series – the only game with that honor. (Louis Wu 18:15:12 UTC)

Self Induced seemed to have some free time yesterday – he shows clearly that my vocabulary could use a bit more variation. Point taken. (Gah.)(Louis Wu 18:12:56 UTC)

darthbob noticed that Microsoft Game Studios has posted ‘Map Tours’ of District and Uplift, the two new maps coming out with Halo 2 Vista; they’re available in Flash format by navigating through the new H2V interface at MGS. (Look under the Media tab.)…

CougRon pointed out that Red vs Blue Episode 96 was released for sponsors late Friday night (it’ll almost certainly be available for everyone else by today sometime). There’s definitely some funky stuff going on in RvBLand… and my goodness, aren’t we…

jarrell88 took the net-famous The Ultimate Showdown music, and built a Halo vid. Nice work!(Louis Wu 18:06:43 UTC)

Black Asgard’s been working on a Halo fan fiction – you can find it on his blog. (Louis Wu 18:05:35 UTC)

Gravemind spent some time breaking down the Graphical Evolution of Halo – upshot is ‘Don’t Panic!’ Good advice.(Louis Wu 18:04:31 UTC)

Okay, on the assumptions that 1) KP and the crowd covering news this past week did a pretty good job keeping up with the halo at bungie.org address and 2) that everyone read my note last week and remembered NOT to send news to the lwu at bungie.org add…

Okay, so here’s the deal. I’m home from a week in pretty remote rainforests – but there’s no time to actually catch up on Halo news. (This would be a good time to pass along a HUGE thank you to the b.orgers who covered the Halo community this past wee…
