    Worth Playing has an interview with Marcus Lehto – it’s amazing, but there’s still MORE to ask (and be answered about) that hasn’t been hit by the other 342 interviews in the past week! Marcus, my hat’s off to you – the ability to talk to this many outlets and still find something different to…

    It went up Sunday, but a poorly-timed server upgrade (utterly my fault) made it hard to reach for part of yesterday… so I’m announcing the latest episode of Halo Action Figure Theater today, instead. Bad wordplay deserves some maturation time, anyway.(Louis Wu 12:49:59 UTC)

    Toy Fair 2010 happened yesterday – and the news out of McFarlane is Reach-filled. GrimBrother One started the party with a link to Kotaku, but InnerRayg pointed out a lot more pics at Figures.com, and later came back with pics from Cool Toy Review. Go get your fill!

    Per tradition, today we note the passing of stalwart friend Brian Morden. Known by his tag ∗Ar-Isildur, Brian was a regular on our forums, dispensing of his youthful wisdom to all around. A Bungie fan first and a Halo fan second, Brian shared with many of us a love of video games and the social…

    Lando Griff1n told us about a new montage called ‘Question Reality’, available at HaloMontage.com. Gameplay is by Fitzy and Smite, editing is by Hazmat v2. 9 minutes long. Hazmat definitely pushes the technical bar of Halo montage editing, though if you’re not one for fast cuts and overeffects, this one might be too much for…
