So the big news last night was the return of the Superintendent. (I suppose he’s never really left; he pops up on Bungie.net’s logo to this day. But we haven’t HEARD a lot from him since the aborted attempt to reveal a new project at E3 this year.) There’s a lot of speculation on our…

Elnea’s posted a new Halo Action Figure Theater – and in honor of it being International Talk Like a Pirate Day, it’s all in Pirate-ese. I mostly don’t like this holiday… but I have to say, the third panel made me laugh. The fourth one, too.(Louis Wu 19:38:15 UTC)

FreeeK ShoW noticed that TechRadar included Halo in its list of ’48 things we hate about tech’. (Number 21 is technically ‘Online Gaming’ – but the picture on the first page of the article references Halo directly.) Overall, a pretty funny article!(Louis Wu 16:32:55 UTC)

When the Spore Character Editor was first released, we pointed out some early community efforts to introduce Halo content into the Spore universe (here, and here) – yesterday, over at the NeoGAF forum, Botolf noticed that there’s actually a pretty extensive collection of Halo creatures now catalogued (including some awesome vehicles). Go check ’em out!(Louis…

Edge has a fascinating discussion with Damian Isla about Halo’s AI, and where its weaknesses are. Go read! Thanks to Narcogen, at Rampancy.net, for the (pirate-flavored) heads-up. (Louis Wu 12:59:45 UTC)

TTL Demag0gue came by to announce that Reclaimer 89 is now up – I think the Reclaimer is getting tired of being controlled. (He also added some goodies to the prize pack that will go to the winner of the Reclaimer Contest…)(Louis Wu 12:59:10 UTC)

The Halo Wars website has added new info to their UNSC Field Manual – clicking on ‘Barracks’ will get you info on Marines (and their domiciles), and clicking on ‘AirPad’ will get you info on the Hornet Launching Structure, and the Hornets themselves. (That gun seems to work a LOT better than the one in…

ZZoMBiE13 created a gorgeous rendition of RvB: Reconstruction’s ‘Meta’ character – feel the power! (If you have an RvB account, you can let him know what you think.)(Louis Wu 20:01:45 UTC)

Bungie has posted the Weekly Update quite a bit early this week – a whole day early, in fact. Why? Because… there’s a lot of stuff they want to tell you about. A LOT. Title Update 2 is going live on Tuesday, and Bungie.net is upgrading to be ready. Go read how! (You can, of…

Self Induced, a regular over at NeoGAF, has set up a new blog to chronicle the bad things that happen to his poor Spartan during XBL Halo 3 play. Lots and lots of fun pics!(Louis Wu 18:32:06 UTC)
