Guitar Halo
Anton P. Nym was the first to notice (via Kotaku) a very intriguing screenshot over at a Fable II fansite – if that’s real, it’s a pretty cool easter egg! (If it’s not, it’s a pretty good photoshop.) Chime in.(Louis Wu 17:58:40 UTC)

Hawty McBloggy’s been busy lately – swing by her digs for speculation on E3 announcements from Bungie next week, a heads-up on a pretty spectacular mini-weapon you can buy with a custom LEGO figure, and a discussion about Halo 3’s call signs. What are you waiting for? Go read! (She counts better than me.)(Louis Wu 20:09:07 UTC)

I suggest prostrating your body for safety.
vector40 returns to our forum with one last Banshee submission – back in the Halo PC days, he was an enthusiastic Banshee pilot, and created a number of articles and videos showing how best to use this vehicle in battle. He recently found an unpublished piece that lays out “a protocol for two-man Banshee wing voice communications”. Go give it a read!(Louis Wu 13:14:41 UTC)

Exclusive Active Camo EVA Spartan Preorder – Again
Back in November, we pointed out a chance to preorder an exclusive Active Camo EVA Spartan from McFarlane. It was supposed to be released in March. The page was later updated with a May 2008 release date. (That’s still there, in fact.) However, the item still hasn’t been delivered – and the preorder has reopened (July 7 through August 15); you’ve got another chance to preorder, with the figure being slated for a late August delivery. Thanks to the Bungie Blog for the (re) heads-up.(Louis Wu 13:06:36 UTC)

The Great Divorce: Story And Gameplay
The divide between story and gameplay has been a regular topic of discussion around here, so this Moving Pixels blog entry seems like it might be of interest. Called The Great Divorce, it imagines Plot and Gameplay as a couple undergoing marital strife. Give it a read, great fun.

Rampant Interface Tweaks
Just playing around with a few toys. One you might want to try out: collapsible blocks.
Clicking on the title of a block, either one of the three across the top of the page, underneath the header, or in the left or right hand columns, will collapse the block down to just its title.
Collapse all three blocks across the top, and the entire region will collapse, bringing the page content up closer to the top. Blocks should remember their states from page to page (although it may take until the entire page loads before the blocks collapse).
So if there’s a block you don’t find particularly useful and you want to hide it, just click the title!
