Bungie massively updated its Reach Project page last night – you’ll need to do some serious exploring. We mentioned Screenshots yesterday – but new Concept Art is up, and the Personnel section has been populated (you can read these in a more linear fashion on the front page of Bungie.net, as well). Good stuff! Thanks…

pete_the_duck was first to notice some gorgeous hi-res versions of those Reach screenshots that have been hitting the net today over at Bungie.net – filenames might provide clues to Reach’s campaign! There are currently 18 new shots in the Screenshots section – but they seem to be going up one by one, so there might…

DJ Lars finished translating the entire Gamereactor.se article we mentioned this morning – swing by his newspost for a far more readable version than Google provides! Update: Looks like a different Gamereactor site has put up its OWN translation! Whee…(Louis Wu 21:44:40 UTC)

It’s Battle of the Magazines! Game Informer has posted ‘Halo: Reach Developer Commentary’ – a seven-minute video narrated by Marcus Lehto that gives you an overview of what you can expect from Halo: Reach.

Not sure how we missed this – but GameInformer put up a second article a few days ago with an in-depth interview with Marty O’Donnell. (It’s matched up with the Reach Score video we mentioned last week.) It’s a pretty interesting read! Go take a look.(Louis Wu 11:36:50 UTC)

The Reach content embargo ends today, January 25 – and Sweden got to that date long before the US. Over at NeoGAF, Syringe pointed out coverage by Swedish gaming site Gamereactor – the text is in Swedish (though Google will translate… kind of), but the pictures are understandable in any language. There’s concept art, screenshots…

Asian Inferno sent us a link to a video he created in 2006, and uploaded to YouTube before Halo 3 was released – it sets Halo cutscene action to a song from the Mulan soundrack. To my surprise, it holds up reasonably well! However, there’s something really disturbing about watching Sgt. Johnson singing with Donny…

Chlazza got a Remote Controlled Warthog – but was unhappy with the power setup. So he rewired it to use lithium-polymer batteries.

Over on NeoGAF, dilatedmuscle whipped up a cool Reach-related wallpaper – and Cocopjojo helped out by hosting a larger, desktop-sized version. Take a look!(Louis Wu 15:11:28 UTC)

BlueTeam1138 decided to see if Halo footage could be coupled with audio from the new Mass Effect 2 trailer – I’d have to say he was pretty successful! Check out the “Halo Effect 2 Launch Trailer”. (Louis Wu 15:10:02 UTC)
