Whoa – great news. The three new Halo 3 Mythic maps that were released with Halo 3: ODST are FINALLY going to be available for download on Xbox LIVE, starting February 2. Only a bit over 4 months late! Thanks, Kotaku (and GrimBrother One).(Louis Wu 18:02:15 UTC)

Thanks to Greg O’Connor-Read for letting us know about the press release for the Halo Legends Original Soundtrack – you can read the full release around the web (the first copy I found was at MCV). The soundtrack will be available on February 9, a week before the Legends disc itself is released. Go read…

Two new comics for you today: DeepCee has updated Chronicles of ODS Steve – #57 (Cry Havok) is now live on Hawty McBloggy. I think things are gonna go boom soon… and TTL Demag0gue let us know that Reclaimer 237 (Apostate Awakening) is online – things seem to be going well for Ferial. Go read!(Louis…

Ah, springtime (well, not quite) – the smell of new life… and fake video clips. ElzarTheBam pointed out a video purporting to show the opening of the Halo Reach public beta. Consensus of the forum? FAKE. Don’t get fooled, kids; there’ll be REAL leaks out there soon enough, but this ain’t one of ’em.(Louis Wu…

I totally forgot to post this yesterday – it went live Monday night, but Tuesday was a very, very bad day. I didn’t ignore it because I didn’t like it – it was just an oversight. Cody Miller continued his series of Lonely Island parodies – Sh*t in a Box takes a look at pricing…

It looks like EB Games Australia was the first site on the internet to break the embargo on Reach screenshots – you can see eight shots (in relatively low res) directly on their site, plus 3 more that never got linked (9 | 10 | 11). These are the same screens that Game Informer used…

This batch of Hide, Seek, Snap screens must be much easier – we had four responses in a 3-hour span last night. The first successful recreation was sent in by rvbsithhead, who won another Sgt. Johnson code for Firefight. Swing by and see what you can do with the Round 6 shot! (Louis Wu 16:11:34…

Austin Childres is selling a very large collection of Halo schwag – go visit the auction page on eBay for a full description. Action figures, books, games… it’s a lot of stuff. Starting bid is $350, and there are still four and a half days. He’s trying to buy his first car!(Louis Wu 16:11:00 UTC)

CaptainTony pointed out that the cover for Blood Line #5 (the latest Halo comic series from Marvel) is on Marvel’s website, along with a summary. Sounds pretty grim!(Louis Wu 16:10:34 UTC)

Halochief89 stopped in to say that the Halo Clairvoyance story has a new chapter up (though the artwork for it won’t be coming for a bit). Go read it at DeviantART.(Louis Wu 16:10:00 UTC)
