Brian Gilmore wanted you all to know that the latest Teabag Prevention article at Geekscape is called ‘How to Use Jetpacks’ – and it gives you the dos (and don’ts!) you need to be a master of the air. Firebird, yo! (Louis Wu 16:23:41 UTC)

Bryan Simon let us know about a Halo Reach Rap he wrote – takes a pretty nasty shot at Black Ops near the end, but otherwise is pretty lighthearted.(Louis Wu 16:23:22 UTC)

Bry wanted to know just how big a Covenant ‘Super Carrier’ really is – so he took some pictures, and did some math. Them babies are HUGE. (A direct comparison with an Assault Carrier is in this post.)(Louis Wu 16:23:04 UTC)

retinence has returned to the LEGO Halo world, with a new version of his Elite. He’s also taking commissions… go see!(Louis Wu 16:22:46 UTC)

Hey there community. I have a question, and I’m wondering if you can help me figure out the answer.

BuzzJuice pointed out a video feature on The Escapist called Extra Credits – a recent episode covered Music in Video Games, and Halo’s original theme got some serious love. The piece is pretty interesting outside of the Halo mention, too – go watch!(L…

XerxdeeJ stopped by to wish Halo 3 a Happy 3rd Birthday – and to raise a glass to the good times. I guess it’s Birthday Day!(Louis Wu 22:22:20 UTC)

Apparently, Yahoo has put up some Reach tips (five separate videos). Just as apparently, they’re pretty basic. Thanks, Mid7night.(Louis Wu 22:21:56 UTC)

Kotaku pointed out that the Halo Reach Official Soundtrack cracked Billboard’s Top 200 highest-selling albums this past week – it was at #157. (This is the highest spot a Halo OST has ever reached – no pun intended.) It’s also in the Top 10 of Billboar…
