One One Se7en asks a question that’s puzzled me since I first started playing Halo…

Man… it’s getting worse and worse. Halo: Resolution points out some nasty injuries I seem to have sustained a couple of weeks ago. Sounds painful…

Very cool – The Toronto Star has put Red vs Blue on their front page (following the lead of the Wall Street Journal, recently). It’s also on their website, right now. It’s a pretty nicely written article, even. (Would have been nice if they’d gotten Jason Saldana’s last name right, but…) Give it a read!…

broony points out that not only did SketchFactor talk to Xbox.com… Tom Gioconda, aka Achronos, did, too. He discusses the growth of the team, the advantages of the new site over the old, and talks a little about how the site will be used in the future. He can’t get into details… but it’s clear…

Nice find by gd – Xbox.com has interviewed Brian Jarrard (aka SketchFactor) about the new Bungie.net. Brian discusses where he thinks the community is going, and how Bungie can help it get there. Give it a read!

Yippee – halosn.bungie.org is back online – many, many thanks to Deimosâ„¢ for making this happen! This machine takes a hefty load off HBO prime and halosm… but the most noticeable change is going to be that the Fan Fiction section is back up. In fact, there were 20 pieces waiting in the queue, submitted…

The Wallpaper queue, as well, was way, way behind. I didn’t do any sorting on this; right now, I’m posting the oldest 20 desktops that made our basic guidelines. (I tossed a couple that were simply too basic to warrant addition – sorry folks.) These 20 are now available in the Wallpaper section. Some are…

I’d like to preface this post with a huge thank-you to the folks who have submitted content to us and have waited patiently for it to appear; the past couple of months have been pretty rough in that respect. Today marks the beginning of a turning point, I hope… I’m hoping to have the Miscellaneous…

Today’s Calvin and Halo explains why mothers should never be allowed on the point team of an invasion force. You can’t have them sending the soldiers to their rooms…

So… way back in February, the Halo Story page mentioned a clue tossed out by Eric Trautmann about stuff he hid in Halo: First Strike. Periodically, over the past 2 and a half months, folks have offered up guesses about what he might have been talking about… and he has invariably answered ‘Cold’. Until now.…

Took a little while, because I’m learning PHP slowly… but the News By Day feature is back; hitting those arrows next to the date will once again let you view older news one day at a time. Apologies for the delay. Next up… Fan Fiction. (I hope.)

Couple of interesting, totally unrelated newsbits over at Battleground: Halo this weekend; I’m finally catching up. They’ve started a Weekly Update for Homefront, the Battlefield: Vietnam mod, and the first one is a doozy (lots of cool pictures). They also link to a couple of threads on the Gearbox Forums (this one and this one)…

One One Se7en asks a very good question today… I’m thinking, someone might have stumbled on the secret behind the Halo 2 delay!

Evilness is occuring on Halo: Resolution – I’d hope that this sort of thing never REALLY happens…

Okay, I’m not 100% positive it’s bug-free… but it SEEMS to work. I’ve recoded the search function that accesses our news database for php; the biggest unknown is the cookie transfer between the main site (halo.bungie.org) and the machine that now handles the search function (nikon.bungie.org). It SHOULD work, in most cases, but it’s quite…

MasterJoe points out a small (53k) Flash animation that’s Halo-related. Artwork is decent, but the animation itself… is a bit confusing. Go soon, because it’s a Geocities site; even at 50k, it won’t take long before it’s unviewable.

We’ve updated our Bungie Weekly Update database to include last Friday’s update over at Bungie.net (including the picture which STILL isn’t visible on the original post). This marks Frankie’s second mention of ‘diaper’… makes you wonder, doesn’t it?

Blackstar has written up a nice thank-you to KP and his family, and put a couple of image galleries online, of yesterday’s Knee For All lanfest. I’m sure there’ll be other writeups and pics coming – but this is a good start!

On March 14, Gamespot listed Halo as one of the top ten first person shooters of all time. They allowed readers to vote, as well, and have now put up the Readers Choice version – and Halo made THIS list, too. Thanks to WhiteRaBbit for the heads-up.

75 degrees outside, and it seems like the perfect day to get some older mail cleared up. I really want to apologize to folks who have submitted content in the past few weeks; I’m really, really, REALLY behind on processing it. In late March, Griever sent in a picture (68K) from Evangelion, a manga and…
