Bungie Day Wallpapers
Hawty McBloggy has posted three new wallpapers, to celebrate Bungie Day. I’d have to say they’re all pretty slick (though the middle one is possibly too busy for an actual desktop image). Go see if one suits your fancy!(Louis Wu 20:51:59 UTC)

AH: Respawn Radio – 010: Doing It Live
This is it, our tenth episode of Respawn Radio. You didn’t think we could muster it, didja? To mark the occasion we recorded it live on Achievement Hunter TV’s Ustream and had a great time. And in said great time we covered FNR4, Knuckles getting some idiot banned from XBL, more Magic lovin’, and revisiting the Halo 3 Achievements. We also picked a winner for our contest and covered another slew of iPhone/iPod touch games. All that and more can be found in this episode, and check out the live recordings below.!
Your Hosts Are: Lono, Knuckles Dawson, & 8bitbass.
Don’t forget to join the RR Group for all the latest episode’s shownotes, news and discussion.

He’s taking a rest, ma.
I gotta wonder… how would you explain this t-shirt to your mom? Thanks, KP.(Louis Wu 19:20:29 UTC)

They’re not doing so hot, so far. (That’s good.)
As of about 15 minutes ago (9:30 am Bungie Time, 12:30 pm EST, 4:30 UTC), Bungie teams had played a total of 50 games – and won 18 of those. (Depending on whether or not they give Recon to folks who TIE them, that means either 116 or 128 fans have already won Recon today – unless they’ve disqualified themselves in some other way.) Remember that there are a LOT of people trying to win this way (there are currently over 120,000 people in the playlist), so your chances aren’t GREAT – but hey, even if you don’t match against the Bungie team, you STILL get to play some cool maps, and have fun on LIVE!(Louis Wu 16:46:47 UTC)

Will Solve Puzzles For Recon
Want more chances at Recon? Bungie’s got you covered! Roger Wolfson created a pretty cool little puzzle a couple of years ago, involving the Red vs Blue crew, Halo 2, and some stats. Solve the puzzle… win Recon! (It looks pretty hard.)(Louis Wu 16:31:22 UTC)

Annual Achievement – not on LIVE?
Hey, neat! The Loot checked in with word that the Vidmaster Challenge: Annual achievement (we just posted a pretty slick walkthrough for it yesterday!) does NOT need to be unlocked over Xbox LIVE – one of their group doesn’t have a Gold account, so they tried it over System Link… and unlocked the achievement. That’s pretty great news! (Louis Wu 14:18:55 UTC)

RvB Recreation Ch 4 – Catching Up
Red vs Blue Recreation Chapter 4 – Catching Up – went online as scheduled last night (but we weren’t online to tell you about it). Donut and Caboose catch up… and contact an old friend. Well, acquaintance. And the mystery deepens. And stuff. Caboose made me laugh again. Go watch! Looks like Sarge Tomzilla was first on our forum with the news.(Louis Wu 14:15:47 UTC)
