Who’s the Boss?
It’s been a little while, but Halo Action Figure Theater has been updated – Episode 149 brings Brad’s fantasies to the fore. Maybe that’s not such a good thing. (Louis Wu 14:04:32 UTC)

Boring Comics #3
OddGodHMK sent us a note yesterday – got lost in the noise, but his Boring Comic for the day was, again, Halo-related. (I’m not insulting the comic – that’s the name of the series.) (Louis Wu 13:25:32 UTC)

ComicCon – for everyone who didn’t make it
Wow. Over at Bungie.net, CrypticGuardian created an 8-part vidoc of the Halo Panel discussion (and other Halo-related material) at ComicCon last week, along with lots of still pics. Videos are hosted at YouTube, and have official sanction. If you couldn’t make it out there yourself… this is the next best thing! Thanks, DHalo.(Louis Wu 12:37:35…

Bungie Multiplatform Rumor
Planet Halo has a tidbit from the September 2008 EGM – their Rumor Mill is claiming that Bungie is working on “multiplatform/PS3 games”. Unlikely to be Halo-related (I can’t see a Halo game showing up on a non-Microsoft console), but it certainly seems to be feasible.(Louis Wu 12:22:41 UTC)

Top 10 Video Game Chicks
NartFOpc pointed out a ‘Top 10 Video Game Chicks’ flick over on YouTube – the whole thing seems designed to exist for the ads that bracket the content, and the voiceover is pretty overdone… but Halo’s Cortana does make the countdown, so here we are letting you know. (Louis Wu 12:13:54 UTC)
