    Sketchfactor stopped in with word of a ‘hot seat interview’ that Campaign Design Lead Chris Opdahl has agreed to be a part of; add your questions to the thread, and Chris will do his best to answer them for tomorrow’s Weekly Update.

    sqorck wants to a Rogue helmet for Reach – but needs money to do so. He’s GOT a Rogue helmet he built for Halo 3; he’s willing to sell it to raise cash to make a new one. He wants to know where to price it – can you help? (He’s put up some pictures so you can see what he’s asking about.)(Louis Wu 15:49:05 UTC)

    Antithesis has uploaded another bunch of images, this time mostly of personalized clay Spartans. We’ve added them to his gallery here; the first new one is a streamlined Master Chief, but if you use the ‘Next’ button on that screen, you can see a series of images of very specific Spartans. One might even say they were modeled after real players. Or something. I’m pretty partial to the little grey guy with the ODST helmet. (Louis Wu 15:20:23 UTC)

The Spawn link also contains a description of the full line of upcoming figures… go read!(Louis Wu 15:11:04 UTC)

    Netherlands defeated Uruguay in their match which is the first time our prediction has been wrong. This time we simulate the Germany vs Spain match. Will we be right or wrong? Only time will tell! I think this is probably the best simulation we’ve run so far.

    Hey everybody. Today is Bungie Day and we are celebrating with an all new RvB PSA video. I don’t know if you have heard, but everyone’s favorite developer is busy wrapping up their latest game, so they asked us to help out with a new video PSA for all their fans. Doing that meant spending almost four days locked in a room with Reach — so what were we going to say? No?

    We didn’t say no.

    Check it out and Happy Bungie Day!

    Have you ever felt jealous of Bungie employees for being able to wear Flaming Helmets in Halo 3 Matchmaking? (You shouldn’t, really, because it makes it very hard to hide when you’re using Invis…) For today only, Bungie’s making that option available to EVERYONE in Matchmaking. Get on, go play, and light that head on fire! (Thanks, Time_Glitch, for noticing so quickly.)(Louis Wu 19:01:44 UTC)

    Hawty McBloggy posted her Bungie Day Community Project – it’s many, many poems and images from fans showing their love for Bungie and Halo in a myriad of ways. Go explore! Without fans like Hawty (who give other fans a place to express their love for the game, and the game’s creators), Bungie wouldn’t be the company it is today!(Louis Wu 17:26:28 UTC)

    Looks like Gamestop is offering an exclusive bonus to folks who pre-order Reach at one of their stores (or online): UA Multi-Threat Mjolnir Mark V(B) Armor. Sigh… (Thanks to eLcHuPaNiBrE 93 for finding this.)(Louis Wu 17:19:33 UTC)
