Who says New Mombasa doesn't have any nightlife?

Wait… isn’t that the guy…?

Devin Olsen found a Hardcore Gamer's IQ Test - almost 500 video game characters, illustrated. A bunch of them are Halo-related. Can you name them all? (Not just the Halo ones - those are easy.)(Louis Wu 17:18:06 UTC)

March 12th, 2010 by halo@bungie.org No comments »
TripleZeroFilms let us know that the next episode of "Core Tempature", starring that 70s superstar, Mandlbaum, is online - you can learn about cheese. And other stuff. And the world. And really, REALLY stupid heroes.(Louis Wu 14:08:35 UTC)

There's a new Friday Caption Fun up at Hawty McBloggy - hammer innuendos and big, hard, cylindrical things are all over this one. Oh, Hawty...(Louis Wu 14:07:35 UTC)

Reach Armor Permutations

March 12th, 2010 by halo@bungie.org No comments »
Harmanius went through the Multiplayer trailer, specifically looking for armor permutations. His resultant image is a bit tough to read, but contains a LOT of information. Take a look!(Louis Wu 14:06:32 UTC)

Halo 2 Tribute

March 12th, 2010 by halo@bungie.org No comments »
CrazedOne1988 put together a tribute to Halo 2, to say goodbye. I think we've seen this sort of thing a few times already... but it's good to be able to say goodbye.(Louis Wu 14:04:01 UTC)

Bungie… Aerospace?

March 12th, 2010 by halo@bungie.org No comments »
Not sure what this is all about - but Attack of the Fanboy noticed a new trademark by Bungie, for 'Bungie Aerospace' (no, they're not getting into the ship-building field; the registration itself mentions computer game software and hardware). Nice logo! What does it mean? Your guess is as good as ours! I found this at Rampancy.net, where Narc also included a link to a Blast story (which, in turn, has a link to an IGN story - the news is all the same, but the comments might be interesting.) There's also a thread on our own forum, if you want to join the conversation. And just to REALLY get the noodles revving, DeathBringer669, over at Bungie.net, also noticed that the MARATHON LOGO is the subject of a brand-new trademark, as well. (Thanks, Hedgemony.) Things that make you go hmm...(Louis Wu 14:02:03 UTC)

Halo FTW2 Gephyrophobia Beta

March 12th, 2010 by halo@bungie.org No comments »
Pepsi sent us a note about a new project undertaken by his HaloPC modding community, Halo Modding - they've overhauled Gephyrophobia with a space battle, water-filled pit, and lots of pretty eye-candy. There's a movie showing off the changes, as well as a download link for the new map, in this thread. If you like what you see, look around - the site's fully outfitted with all essential modding tools and lots of tutorials!(Louis Wu 14:01:12 UTC)

See? It’s not just Halo!

March 12th, 2010 by halo@bungie.org No comments »
February 2010 is a milestone month for Microsoft - because for the first time since Halo 3 was released, the Xbox 360 has outsold both of its competitors. (This seems to be more a function of lackluster sales overall than a killer exclusive crushing the competition... but it's still a big deal for them.) (Louis Wu 14:00:40 UTC)

Halo Legends Blu-ray – the

March 12th, 2010 by halo@bungie.org No comments »
Co-Optimus has a review of Halo Legends online - a bit odd for a site devoted to cooperative gaming, but I suppose watching videos can definitely be done cooperatively. They liked it. (Louis Wu 13:59:35 UTC)

Halo 3 – a game completed

March 12th, 2010 by halo@bungie.org No comments »
One of the talks at the GDC this week was from a Microsoft researcher who studies Achievements and how they affect players' actions. One interesting tidbit from his talk: more than 93% of Halo 3 players finish the first level of the Campaign - and nearly 72% finish the entire campaign. Those numbers are MUCH higher than I'd have guessed.(Louis Wu 13:58:35 UTC)

Earth Invasion

AssaultGodzilla posted an older Halo HMV he'd created - this one is called 'Earth Invasion', and uses footage from an impressive array of sources. Go watch!(Louis Wu 13:57:17 UTC)

A Comic Contest – and a familiar entrant

March 12th, 2010 by halo@bungie.org No comments »
The Escapist Magazine recently hosted a contest for webcomic artists - ZZoMBiE13 submitted four strips from a comic he called 'Wasting Potential'. Two of his submissions are Halo-related, but you should check out all four. (They start here.) I'd have loved to see this on the web!(Louis Wu 13:56:28 UTC)

Bungie Applies For Trademark On “BUNGiE AEROSPACE”

March 12th, 2010 by narcogen No comments »

So Bungie has filed an application for a trademark on "Bungie Aerospace" with the accompanying image. The application is classified as various things somehow related to computer gaming (which is not particularly surprising) and accompanied by the image you see here.

Attackofthefanboy noticed the application and it was reposted at the website of Blast magazine in Boston.
