IGN has kicked off a huge Halo 3 FAQ – General Info is up today, with more content coming each weekday for the next couple of weeks (they’re skipping WEdnesday the 29th, for some reason). Nice summary of available info.(Louis Wu 13:18:32 UTC)

There’s another Q&A with Frankie, this time at CNET.au – he really discourages you from playing on Normal. (This also contains the ‘not a twinkle in Bungie’s eye’ quote that CVG used last week to speculate about Halo 3 PC.)(Louis Wu 13:00:23 UTC)

Over at Wired.com, there’s an amazing collection of new content – the cover article from the most recent issue is online, along with a whole bunch of extras. A few new unwatermarked screens are there (we’ve seen these in magazines, but not yet in digi…

Over at the Unfiction forum, an article that was originally posted on an internal Microsoft webpage has been put up (with permission) – it makes it clear that the Iris ARG came to an official end last week, and it also explains a few of the odder aspe…

trigger119 wrote up his impressions of his first MLG tournament – an interesting read for folks who haven’t been yet. Comments can go on his forum thread.(Louis Wu 12:33:39 UTC)

I’m not sure I’d look very good in it – but there are definitely some Halo fans that could pull it off. Check out the new Cortana Tank Top in the Bungie Store. Thanks, aklay47.(Louis Wu 22:08:33 UTC)

Wow. This is… odd. A Halo 3 Ferris Wheel at the Leipzig Games Convention? Each car is closed, it looks like – what goes on inside? Thanks, Zeouterlimits.(Louis Wu 21:52:57 UTC)

if you live near Seattle, you might want to look into the Halo 3 IMAX Preview event – it’s tomorrow night, at the Seattle Pacific Science Center, and seats are first-come, first-served, RSVP only. Go read!(Louis Wu 21:42:20 UTC)

Adam Kovic let us know that Machinima.com is running another contest – this one requires that you put together a machinima version of the official “Invasion” movie trailer using supplied audio and graphics, mixed with your own game footage. As of right…

A couple of weeks ago, we pointed out a trailer for Church, a Halo CE map that looked pretty impressive. It’s been released – swing by HaloMaps.org to download it. (While you’re there, take some time and look around; over 100 maps and almost 70 modifi…

Big Goalie Dan let us know about Podtacular 125 – guest-hosted by DoodiRock, from 2old2play, this one contains lots of Halo 3 discussion. 51 mb – go download. (While you’re there, check out the latest Pod TV – they’re showing off the Assassin’s Skull,…

Fragclone noticed a couple of Lego custom minifigures on eBay right now – an ODST Helljumper and Sgt. Johnson in his dress whites. They’re pretty cool, though they DO seem to be pretty expensive for minifigures.(Louis Wu 20:00:35 UTC)

J&R Music World got a chance to ask Frankie a few questions about Halo 3 – most of them have been asked elsewhere, but it’s a nice mix and contains a few tidbits that I don’t rememer seeing before.(Louis Wu 19:14:12 UTC)

Warbow assures us that this pace will NOT keep up too much longer, but you can still enjoy Calvin and Halo while he remains inspired.(Louis Wu 19:08:52 UTC)

If you live in the UK, and you’re sad that you’ve never gotten a chance to see the Video Games Live show, be sad no more. They’ll be at the London Games Festival on October 22, performing with the Philharmonia Orchestra at the Royal Festival Hall. (Th…
