Some videos that showed up in Bungie’s Comm Chatter today:

• Out of Work Spartan Ep 4 – this is a fun series. Spartan Z06 is doing his best to show you how to make French Toast. Nice mix of live and videogame footage.
• Capture That Flag 3D shows you a flag cap with stereographic video – cross your eyes and check it out!
• Master Chief Theater 3000 Episode 404 covers the ODST Kizingo Boulevard cutscenes. (We forgot to mention this earlier today.)
• Betrayal is a Halo 3 Dualtage from FoMan123 and Hawkeye543, and has a lot of betrayals. (You’d never have guessed from the name, would you?)

pete_the_duck has decided to try and suss out what the first level of Halo: Reach looks like, based on the screenshots we’ve seen so far. It’ll be a while before we know if he’s right or not – but it’s a pretty cool thought experiment in any case!(Louis Wu 15:18:53 UTC)

The annual BAFTA awards will be announced on March 19 – but nominations went live today. Halo 3: ODST is up for the Multiplayer award, and Halo Wars is up for the Strategy award. Nice!(Louis Wu 12:54:48 UTC)

This isn’t Halo-related, but HBO’s always been a family, and sometimes family needs help. We got word from ICDedPpl (search our news if you don’t remember him) that his fiancée, Aimee, has been diagnosed with a tumor inside her skull – you can read about it on his blog. There’s a PayPal link up if you can spare anything, but prayers and emotional support are also gratefully accepted. Dan, and Aimee – we’re pulling for you!(Louis Wu 12:54:01 UTC)

XerxdeeJ let us know that Tied the Leader has awakened – they want to unite Halo gamers with an umbrella of gaming networks that never leaves you without playing partners. Go read ‘Calling All Lone Wolves‘ – and get ready for Reach with Friends!(Louis Wu 12:53:29 UTC)

Air Force Hero whipped up another Reach wallpaper – this one is called ‘Jun’s Story’. Take a look!(Louis Wu 12:53:09 UTC)

Treeskunk Productions has posted ‘Bleepers, Episode 1‘ – take Crow’s Nest cutscenes, add strategically-timed bleeps, and you get something that may or may not be funnier than the original. (Actually, how can you improve on ‘To War.’?) Go watch, and decide for yourself. (Louis Wu 12:52:13 UTC)

Worth Playing has an interview with Marcus Lehto – it’s amazing, but there’s still MORE to ask (and be answered about) that hasn’t been hit by the other 342 interviews in the past week! Marcus, my hat’s off to you – the ability to talk to this many outlets and still find something different to say is a true skill.(Louis Wu 12:51:43 UTC)

Eurogamer counted frames on the gameplay shown in the recent ViDoc, and drew some conclusions about both framerate and resolution. Time will tell if they’re correct or not…(Louis Wu 12:51:09 UTC)

Jason MacIsaac, an editor with Electric Playground, watched Halo Legends, and wrote up his thoughts. Go read ’em. (Louis Wu 12:50:37 UTC)
