Halo 3: ODST – mixing it up
The Seattle Times has posted an interesting summary of Halo 3: ODST, with some nice background info on Bungie themselves. If you’re interested in where they are, and where they’re going, this is worth a read.(Louis Wu 13:36:29 UTC)

Master Chief and Cortana Tribute
j m sent us a link to a tribute video he made, paying homage to the love between Cortana and the Chief. Starts slow, but the overall feeling is quite good.(Louis Wu 13:35:29 UTC)

Wait… they – what?
This post, on a japanese forum, found its way into my Google Alerts folder. I have to say, it’s one of the hardest-to-read posts I’ve seen in a while (from a color/background standpoint)… and it’s one of the most out-there theories I’ve ever seen (from a crazy fan standpoint). Sort of fun to see all…

Halo 3 Fails: Episode 22
The latest Halo 3 Fails (Episode 22) is now life – the Throwing Fail on Blackout was pretty funny. (Lots of ’em are funny, actually – that one just made me laugh harder.) Thanks, Chris10023.(Louis Wu 15:24:48 UTC)

Another Preview of Halo: Helljumper
CaptainTony pointed out a bunch of new content he’s added to Halopedia, collected from an IGN Preview of the first issue of Halo: Helljumper, the next Halo comic coming from Marvel. Five pages (no dialogue) plus the cover – when coupled with Marvel’s own preview, that’s got to be a significant chunk of the issue!(Louis…

Hawty McBloggy – the gift that keeps on giving
There’s plenty of OTHER Halo content on Hawty’s blog in the last day or so, too – check out this really huggable stuffed Master Chief, and a short video showing one of those ‘hey, what just happened?’ moments we’ve all run across in Matchmaking. Typical – on a day she’s supposed to be getting presents…

Birthdays are for celebrating.
Yesterday was Hawty McBloggy’s birthday – and a bunch of regulars on her blog put together a tribute song to celebrate. Boom-Dee-Ya-da gets another Halo rendition – but this time, the lyrics are all new. Happy birthday, angel! (Thanks to Captain Spark for pointing it out.)(Louis Wu 15:19:43 UTC)

Fundfax Fairraiser – ENDING TONIGHT
Due to some unforeseen (and VERY unfair to Hawty) circumstances, the Fundfax Fairraiser (the fundraiser Hawty McBloggy set up for Marissa’s Bunny) is ending quite early – tonight, at midnight, in fact. You’ve got just under 9 hours to buy some virtual raffle tickets, and make a difference in a little girl’s life, and maybe…

HBO’s Music Page – Reborn
Occasionally, we get flak in our forum from people who complain that many areas of our site are out of date. They’re right – many sections ARE out of date. This is because right now, we have a pretty limited staff (it’s mostly me, except in an emergency), and maintaining the front page is pretty…

urk in high heels? Hrm…
The Bungie Weekly Update is live, seeing as it’s Friday night (well, Saturday morning in HBO-time, but Bungie’s 7 hours behind) – this one’s a fun read. Apparently, Nathan Fillion stopped by the studio – not to record dialogue, but to play some ODST and satisfy some fanboi fawning. (Nice pics) Also, details of upcoming…

Trinity Requiem
It’s been a while since we’ve heard from PraetoriaGuard… but they were a pretty loud community voice, back in the day. And at one point, they were building Trinity, a pretty ambitious machinima project. Well, Trinity never saw the light of day… but Eisen Feuer has released Trinity Requiem – a look back at what…
