Narcogen’s walk through the Halo 3 Soundtrack continues at Rampancy.net – Part Two covers the second third of the game. Again, it’s a really interesting read, and will help you look at the music you’re listening to in a different light. (If you missed Part One, we mentioned it on Tuesday.(Louis Wu 13:34:02 UTC)

And speaking of comics, I forgot too post Elnea’s latest episode of Halo Action Figure Theater – it doesn’t seem to have a number, but it SHOULD be 121, I guess. Consequences of activating Zombo-O-trons are now known. You were warned.(Louis Wu 13:23:53 UTC)

TTL Demag0gue is back with another episode of Reclaimer – Chapter Three, Part Two has the Reclaimer wondering what’s going on with Viper squad, and musing on ways to even things up a bit. (His forum post also contains links to a couple of blog posts, explaining the delay and discussing his choice of medium.)…

Bungie’s made some pretty big changes to Bungie.net – forums have been upgraded, Groups get new themes. Go read about it – and then explore!(Louis Wu 20:16:24 UTC)

several orphans pointed out a bunch of objects at the Bungie Store – some ActionClix stuff, a couple of posters, a mylar print. They’ve never been mentioned in our news, so if you haven’t seen ’em, check ’em out!(Louis Wu 19:46:26 UTC)

AlkalineProdigy sent us a couple of panoramic shots of Epitaph (Side Full | Tower) – really gives you a sense of scale! (That tiny blue thing at the top is where you play.)(Louis Wu 19:41:25 UTC)

Plenty of recycled jokes in today’s One One Se7en… but anything that references the Blues Brothers can’t be all bad. (Wait, shouldn’t that be the Blue SISTER?)(Louis Wu 15:09:45 UTC)

The Angry Pixel claims to have inside information that Halo Wars is being developed for the PC as well as the Xbox360 – and that the two versions will be able to play together. Pretty cool, if it turns out to be true! Thanks, ActionTrip.(Louis Wu 15:02:35 UTC)

ZZoMBiE13’s week-long trip around the galaxy continues… this time with some old friends from across the pond. Go read Another Halo Comic Strip.(Louis Wu 14:11:28 UTC)
