Minor (Proactive) Rumor-Busting
This hasn’t actually been floated as a rumor – but there was a little bit of speculation about an announcement, so we thought we’d jump in early. Kotaku posted a note recently (thanks, CaptainTony) about an ‘exciting unannounced project’ that Microsoft will be bringing to Comic-Con next week – and even though there’s no discussion in the story about what this might be related to, there WAS a little speculation that it might be about an upcoming Halo game from MGS. Frankie stopped into our forum to state that the Halo team at MGS is showing off something that’s not a game – something that “on a scale from 1-100 in amazing-holy-crap-ness, it’s not 100, but it’s sure not 1 either.” So: something cool is coming from the MGS Halo team. How cool? We dunno. Is it a game? No. We’ll know more next week.(Louis Wu 17:09:10 UTC)

Thassalottamovies, Boss.
Lots of new movies on the BungLog™ this afternoon:- Lufias created a tribute montage for Kampy – under 3 minutes, in HD. Lots of multikills.
- The Mythic Photographers have created both a Community Montage and a Community Funtage – links for both are on Bungie.net.
- Honor Guard has created an obstacle course, and then a video to show you how to run it; watch, run, and see if you can beat their time in the Halolympics!
- A Word from An Elite is a collection of clips from Campaign, showing off some of the funnier Halo 3 dialogue clips that can show up with the IWHBYD skull turned on. (If you want to hear more, just swing by our Dialogue Databank.)(Louis Wu 17:25:24 UTC)
