Halo Legends: Abridged
Back from Internetless World – let’s see if I can catch up on some of the stuff that showed up recently. (mnemesis did a FANTASTIC job of keeping the front page from being empty – but jumping in to run HBO periodically is like sipping from a firehose. Sometimes, you just need to come up for air.) First thing I noticed – cbwilliams17 hacked together an abridged version of The Babysitter (from Halo Legends) – should make you smile.(Louis Wu 22:59:56 UTC)

Anger, Sadness and Envy Episode 14: ODST Pt. 2 (MP3)

Show Highlights:
Keep On Truckin’
GamesRadar: 7/10
Was ODST a Good Idea?
Demise of Chronicles
Comes With Beta (or The Crackdown Factor)
Full Game vs Expansion
What Would 343 Do?
What’s Good in ODST?
Will it Rain on Reach?
Time Flies
Finding My Way
An Uplifting Preserve
NMPD HQ FTW
Playing Detective
Clues That Work…
…and Those That Don’t
Kikowani Station
Mission… Accomplished?
Allowing For Failure
Breaking the Finale
Blowing the Bridge (or not)
Carrots and Sticks
Death From AboveFor those wondering, we ambushed Blackstar late at night on his birthday with a 3-hour recording session he wasn’t fully prepared for, and that accounts for him being quiet in this episode (that and the fact that I don’t know when to shut up). More of his contributions will be in the second half of this episode, which looks ahead to the Multiplayer Beta of Halo Reach.
This is the MP3 version of this podcast.

Bungie Weekly Update, part 42,310
The Weekly Update went up, er, yesterday (news is hard!). Lots of info about the Invasion gametype and Boneyard (the map it’ll be played on), playlists available during the Beta (it’s super awesome), stuff that won’t be in the Beta (it’s super awesome – wait! No Race?!? That’s NOT super awesome!), control schemes and other stuff that is in it, a rundown on the contents of the three editions of the retail game, and a note about Halo 2 and some prizes the last few diehards might be in line for. It’s not in our archive yet because Wu keeps the keys to that buried in the yard somewhere, so you’ll have to satisfy yourself with the Bungie.Net version. Go read!(mnemesis 15:54:22 UTC)
