Thanks muchly to urk, who reminded us that Zoxin It Up! LIVE is happening tonight – swing by to hear the interview with Adam Grumbo, of the 405th. (He’s got something cool to give away, and if you’re listening, you’re eligible!) The festivities start at 9pm ET – but be a little early if you want a shot at a backstage pass.(Louis Wu 22:19:59 UTC)

Please be aware that the malicious iframe was removed as soon as we were notified of its existence – and the compromised login that allowed access has been changed. The site is safe at this point, and we hope that Google removes the warning page soon.(Louis Wu 18:35:50 UTC)

VG247 caught up with Brian Jarrard and CJ Cowan at Gamescom – they asked a bunch of good questions about Halo 3: ODST and its development. Go read the answers.(Louis Wu 17:51:05 UTC)

Co-Optimus wrote up their Halo 3 Co-Op Night (we mentioned it yesterday, remember?) – swing by for impressions and screen caps from the staff.(Louis Wu 17:40:56 UTC)

BuzzJuice brought us the news of a new Co-Op Mythic Campaign Challenge from HaloCharts. You and a friend run through all nine levels of Halo 3, in order, in CLASO (Co-op, Legendary, All Skulls On), and if you’re first to sumbit a full set of 9 runs, you both win Recon! Nice. (Oh… did we mention that there’s a Zero Deaths requirement? ZING!)(Louis Wu 17:34:01 UTC)
