Swinging by HMB will give you access to both yesterday’s Twitter T&A Thursday article (beware of odd clouds), and today’s Friday Caption Fun, Round 67 article (I think that’s Hawty in the kitchen, making me a sammich). Go read!(Louis Wu 14:00:54 UTC)

It’s been a while coming, but TTL Demag0gue let us know that Reclaimer 223 is out – and Bold discovers new info about Reclaimer. (Louis Wu 14:00:27 UTC)

Looks like EGM, the magazine that stopped publishing in January of this year, is coming back – and the December issue has feature on Halo: Reach! Thanks, The BS Police.(Louis Wu 13:59:53 UTC)

Anoj is back with a new Top 10 Halo 3 Series video – this one is Episode 44, Top 10 ODST Firefight Kills. I guess there are still just a limited number of clips to choose from… Thanks, Minime637. (Louis Wu 13:59:34 UTC)

Just three new pieces this week in the Fan Fiction section – go read ’em!(Louis Wu 13:58:39 UTC)

Get your game on – this week’s Double EXP Weekend Playlist is Fiesta. Random weapons, 8 players, FFA. Go play!(Louis Wu 20:42:41 UTC)

MsValentine went to a panel called ‘Spartan vs Spartan’ at EXP Con 2009 – it was Steve Downes (the voice of Master Chief) and T.C. Carson (the voice of Kratos in the God of War series) discussing their roles. She grabbed a bunch of photos, and some low-quality videos (the important part is the audio, and it’s all audible) – go see what she learned! (It’s a Red vs Blue journal, but it should be readable without an account there.)(Louis Wu 17:15:13 UTC)

Joey Victory is back with the third episode of “The World’s Greatest Halo 3 Player… In His Mind” (Episode 1 was mentioned here, and episode 2 was here; if you missed ’em, go watch because they’re great). This time, he’s providing commentary on a game of MLG Team Slayer on Guardian – had me snickering. Go watch! (Thanks, urk.)(Louis Wu 16:56:38 UTC)

Today’s the one-year anniversary of ODS Steve – and there’s a party going on over at Hawty McBloggy’s. Stuntmutt, Grin + Bear It’s Luke, Adam Susskind, and ZzomBiE13 all created birthday strips to celebrate Steve’s first year. Go light a candle! To be honest, I heard about this at Bungie.net. (Thanks, angel. Thanks a lot.)(Louis Wu 16:19:01 UTC)

Sean Bradley was at VGXPO in Philly this weekend – and he was fully decked-out in his ODST outfit. He won two awards in their costume competition on Saturday; Most Complex Costume, and Best Costume. There’s a post on the 405th with some pics and a link to some videos, and there are more pics in his Photobucket album. Superb!(Louis Wu 13:33:28 UTC)

Another cosplay image from MsValentine, snapped at EXP Con (it goes with yesterday’s image) – this one sees your two Cortanas and raises you a Miranda Keyes. To War! (Louis Wu 13:32:59 UTC)

ArteenEsben noticed a Battle Rifle in Halo 3: ODST – no, you can’t play with it (it shows up only in a cutscene), but given the uproar from the fans when it was made clear that the BR wouldn’t be present in ODST, I’m thinking this HAS to be an easter egg. You can see stills of it in this post, but you should watch the cutscene if you want to see it in motion. (Louis Wu 13:25:37 UTC)
