    Thanks once again to Harry Al-Shakarchi for his quick translation skills. He’s sent in a translation of the German PC Games article. (We’re posting it as submitted.) This is the same article as the one published in Incite Gaming magazine last week… we’re still waiting for permission to post that one.

    “It might NOT be a Kurki knife!” says Nathan Bitner in an explanatory(?) note to the Marathon’s Story page. No confirmation on the height of the Covenant either. The Master of Obfuscation stikes again!

    HBO exclusive! Kudos to Christoph Schmidt for scanning in a Halo preview from the German PC Games (12/99) magazine. Check out Page 1, Page 2, Page 3, and Page 4. For folks who don’t have huge monitors, these versions might be more readable: Page 1, Page 2, Page 3, Page 4. Now all we need…

    Marty O’Donnell reports on our forums that David Joost has moved the Halo music to a new category at mp3.com. See what you can do about raising its position in the game soundtrack download list!

    Looks like we got our points back. Today’s team stats clearly show that the Halo team gained more units over the last 24 hours than combined personal units. Good news.

    Seems our Forum archives just weren’t up to the task of displaying 7500 posts. They’ve been broken up into two archives… you’ll find links at the top of the main forum page. The first 5000 posts are in the “Ancient Archived Posts” section. Hope this helps.

    Tasteless? Yup. Who said we had taste? Kelstek submits some off-color art (so to speak) to our Miscellaneous Art collection. You’ll find it at the end of the Bungie Mods section… easiest way to get there is jump to “Other”, and back up a page. Pax.

    MacFury sends in a theory about the 1,000 humans on the Halo that aren’t marines. You’ll find it on our Theories page. Thanks, MacFury.
