March 31st, 2009
A crowd of Rooster Teeth fans got together for a second round of multiplayer fun recently - and you can watch the fun from a couple of different sources, thanks to the Bungie Blog. Lots of cool custom Mythic fun!(Louis Wu 12:58:17 UTC)

Congratulations to McCronin29, who was picked by Domino Theory as the winner in the Needs Moar Legendary contest - he gets a nice LIVE code for buying those Legendary maps! Thanks, as always, to Domino for the amazing generosity that keeps these contests funded!(Louis Wu 19:09:33 UTC)

Just a quick update: The deadline for submissions to the Mythic Movie contest passed last night, and after cleaning up the uploads folder, we have several dozen valid submissions. Our judges are hard at work watching these as we speak - if all goes well, we'll have winners announced in Friday's Bungie Weekly Update. Stay tuned!(Louis Wu 18:57:35 UTC)

Gamer720 created an interesting obstacle course he calls 'Saw Extremity'; the video on YouTube shows off what you have to do to complete it (you should read the description for full details). Expect to die a lot. Thanks, urk.(Louis Wu 18:48:17 UTC)

Halo Mythic Challenge: Met!
March 30th, 2009
We got word from Daniel 'Tyrant' Morris about the recent Mythic Challenge for the final level of Halo 3 - a number of people were able to finish the level, but it was Quest 4 Mythic's very own Pahat Pojat, with a time of 12:27, that took the crown. That's FAST! Mythic III is coming up this weekend - it'll take the place of the ordinary Monthly Mythic Challenge, and should be more obtainable. Details when we get 'em!(Louis Wu 18:42:18 UTC)

Halo 3 becomes most popular LIVE game… ever.
March 30th, 2009
Multiplayerreport.com has a system whereby they rank Xbox LIVE games by popularity - you get points for being in the top 5 games for any given week. Gears of War has been at the top of their list for a long time, since it went a full year at number 1... but this week, it was passed, by Halo 3. Not bad!(Louis Wu 14:40:29 UTC)

Just a small comic update today: The Catfish told the Bungie Blog that 2501 Episode 33 went live on Saturday, and TTL Demag0gue let our forum know that Reclaimer 172 is now up. I guess there were better things to do this weekend than whip up comics!(Louis Wu 14:40:03 UTC)
When Fans build on Fan Work
March 29th, 2009
Ragnarok pointed out an article at Kotaku about a video worth watching. A couple of weeks ago, we mentioned a fantastic Red Hot Chili Peppers parody by the guys at Palette-Swap Ninja. A fan, usethefork, created a video to go along with that song - and he did an amazing job of matching up the action to the lyrics. (The Palette-Swap Ninja guys LOVED it.) Go watch - it's absolutely worth 6 minutes of your time.(Louis Wu 20:47:35 UTC)
