Woohoo! Our first mention in a fan’s wallpaper (I think). Dinosurfer has sent along ‘Joyride’ for your perusement – you’ll find it in our Wallpaper section. Nice and clean…

arcarsenal dropped us a line to let us know that Halo made Rolling Stone magazine – it’s just a tiny blurb, describing Halo as a ‘long-awaited 3d shooter’ on the Xbox, and displaying the flying jeep screenshot recently released… but hey, mainstream press is mainstream press!

Ryan ‘Mhaddy’ Matthews writes to say the Junkyard is finally back up – and will be posting one new exclusive item per day for the next two weeks. Dunno how many of those will be Halo-related… but stop by and take a look!

Thanks to Iden, who pointed out to us that Xbox.com has an article describing a team meeting a couple of months ago in which the first prototypes of a real, working Xbox were demoed… and the statement thatProgress has been great since then and we’re poised to deliver the first kits to game developers before…

Early last week, we got a Fan Fiction submission with a subject line of ‘stupid fanfic I wrote’. Wirehead figured, if the AUTHOR thinks it’s stupid, how good could it be? It got resubmitted a couple of days ago, with an altered subject line, and I found it this morning. Moral of the story -…

Thanks to Ph.D., who pointed out a new Halo preview at Gamespot – there’s not really any new info there, it seems to be a pre-E3 prep piece, but press is press, right? (Well, don’t tell that to Daily Radar, who went under yesterday…)
