deftangel let us know that the official BBFC rating for Halo 3 (the game, not the extra discs this time around) is “15” – so the “12” rating of the supplementary discs in the Limited and Legendary editions is overriden. (The rating page also reveals that there are 41 minutes worth of cutscenes – a…

2old2play talked to Frankie about clan support (well, the planned lack of it) in Halo 3 – go read why Bungie’s not worried, and thinks you shouldn’t be either. (Louis Wu 10:28:35 UTC)

MCV confirms that Prima and Piggyback (the companies that created the Halo 2 strategy guide) are once again working together to bring you the Halo 3 Official guide, which will be on store shelves before the game. Do your best to avoid spoiling yourself!(Louis Wu 10:27:59 UTC)

There’s a ton of Halo news waiting to be posted – but I haven’t been around much the last couple of days. Start with tonight’s Bungie Weekly Update – more will come tomorrow. Sounds like Bungie’s busier than I am… (You can, as always, read it in our Weekly Update Archive if you prefer.)(Louis Wu…

Day Two of 1Up’s massive Halo 3 coverage is now up – a post-mortem interview with Tyson Green and Lars Bakken about what was learned from the beta, a quick look at Guardian and Last Resort, and a blog entry that looks back at Halo 1. Good stuff!(Louis Wu 21:44:19 UTC)

Velez notes that Gamersyde has two new not-so-shakey cam videos of part of the Tsavo Highway level, plus footage of the replay feature. I’m tsalivating now!(mnemesis 17:53:28 UTC)

The writers are quiet this week. There are three stories for your reading pleasure in the Fan Fiction section today. Enjoy them. Pax.(Crux Fidelis 15:23:52 UTC)

Today’s One One Se7en reminds us that classics can be puns, and puns can be classic. Sometimes. Or not, as the case may be.(mnemesis 06:50:26 UTC)

AvalonDrew checks in on the forum with a monster post detailing everything seen and heard at the recent IMAX Halo 3 gig. Go salivate some more!(mnemesis 06:46:53 UTC)

ZD noticed a new article on Forge over at IGN. Nothing too new, but worth salivating over all the same.(mnemesis 06:44:02 UTC)

Um… I’m not sure I understand all that’s going on here… but some weird stuff showed up on our forum this morning. Before you go there, though – visit This Spartan Life; it seems to start there (check the front page, then visit their episodes page)….

Avateur (and Menelven) point out that over at Gamersyde, there’s a shakeycam version of Neil Blomkamp’s second Halo live-action short. This one shows combat between ODSTs and Brutes, and I’m guessing it was shown (and filmed) at Leipzig this week. As w…

1Up.com has begun its nearly month-long Halo 3 intense coverage – the first three items are up now. A new screenshot gallery (with a great collection of new shots), a hands-on preview of Halo 3’s fourth campaign mission, and a blog from editor Jeremy …

More writeups of the IMAX Halo 3 showing Tuesday night – from professional journalists at The Seattle Times and fansites like GruntsRUs. Everybody loved it!(Louis Wu 10:31:50 UTC)

More footage, mostly from Leipzig: Daily Motion and TeamXbox both have different sizes of the same IGN video – a nice multiplayer montage. In fact, Oliver from Halo Base (in Germany) sent us a link that contains all the clips they’ve found so far – go…

Computerworld has a look back on Rooster Teeth’s effect on machinima, triggered by the fact that the Season Five DVD is now available (my preordered copy arrived last week) – go read, then (if you don’t already have it) go buy!(Louis Wu 09:58:54 UTC)

A lot of people pointed out that we neglected to mention that Marvel’s first episode of Halo: Uprising went on sale yesterday. Consider yourself informed. (Feedback on our forum – full of spoilers, so don’t read this unless you’re done with the issue -…

PFG is selling off the doubles in his (rather ridiculously large) Joyride Action Figure collection – go see what there is, and make him an offer!(Louis Wu 23:54:04 UTC)
