Newest addition to the product lineup at the Bungie Store: A Beanie! (Well, OK, not a beanie, but a cap)

Tom Clifford points out that the Valley Branch Retreat, in Indiana, is planning a Halo-themed paintball scenario on May 17th. There’s a sign-up form on that page, including details on the registration fees. If you’re tired of only getting hit by virtual bullets, check it out!

The newest episode of Red vs. Blue has been released to the public. The video has also been mirrored at Halo-Game.com. Those wacky marines…

The deadline for the America’s Biggest Halo Fan contest has been extended to April 25th, according to SketchFactor over on Bungie.net. The top three entries get a free trip to the FanFest next month, so get cracking!

A new logo tweak for our Logos section… and they keep coming.

Cybrfrk noticed an interesting new wearable appearing on the Bungie webcam… or is it wearable? (I guess it could be a backpack, or something.) Anyway, seems clear that the Store will be growing in available items soon…

mastasnypa wrote to us on Wednesday, but we seem to have lost the mail in the crush. VE3D has been running a poll all week (Most anticipated upcoming action sequel?) and Halo 2 is running a distant 3rd, behind Doom 3 and Half-Life 2. Ouch! Have you voted?

Four new desktops for you today in the Wallpaper section…

The second episode of an obscure comic has been added to our Miscellaneous Art section. It’s not quite as obscure any more.

Ross Mills points out that this month’s issue of XBoxGamer (on sale in the UK as of April 11) comes bundled with a free copy of Prima’s Official Strategy Guide (nice – I paid $15 for that a while back) and an offer for a free Xbox DVD remote if you subscribe. Not too shabby!

I’m going to do my best to clear out the artwork/fiction queues before I leave today… but this is a formal request that all content for submission in the next week or so be mailed to halo@bungie.org, NOT my personal email. I will not be checking email (or doing anything else web-related) for the next…

Almost a month ago, Hickadam, the creator of the wildly popular Asshole movie, wrote to us to let us know that he’d found the original version on his hard drive.This one was taped off a TV with a camcorder (sorry for the quality), and was my very first try at video editing.It has some stuff…

Whoa – and the load shall be lightened. Gawyn [subnova] popped onto our forum to announce that Subnova has created an ‘Official Megg Forum’, dedicated to the search for the Megg. Benefits to visitors include feedback from the only folks who actually know where the dang thing is… benefits to HBO forumgoers should be even…

Now this is Halo fanaticism. 3 hours of 4-player splitscreen Halo play on an 8″ screen? OUCH!

The man’s on a roll… Warbow tosses up another Calvin and Halo for your viewing pleasure.

Red Loser attempts to bring up the level of discourse on our forum with some poetry. Watch out for the stinky fish…

Thanks to wraps rulz52, who found another set of Halo dogtags for sale at eBay. With five and a half days left, they’re already up to $35… looks like these might go for a bit. Update: Bigsauce, last heard from during the Halo National Championships, dropped us a note to let us know he just…

When times are dark, humor brightens the sky. Warbow has turned in another Calvin and Halo… this time in color!

Another movie from Maverick J – this one might be a little long for the content, but it’s a pretty slick little trick, and I haven’t seen it in very high use; it’s probably worth learning for those who play lots of multiplayer.
