More awesome ODST stuff, courtesy of urk’s Bungie Blog Babblings (they’re much better than that sounds, but I needed a ‘B’ word):

• IGN has posted a 30-minute special on ODST – they interviewed Joe Staten and got facts and gameplay footage, and it’s available to the public. (Insiders get the HD version.)
• Brian Jarrard talked to G4TV in a five-minute segment with gameplay (Curtis Creamer does the playing) with more tidbits and goodies.

There’s gonna be more all day – but I have no clue how much access we’ll have. Keep an eye on Bungie.net for the best bits!(Louis Wu 16:41:53 UTC)

The More Deluded noticed three new gameplay vids at GameTrailers – two campaign walkthroughs, and a walkthrough of ODST’s new Firefight Co-op mode. You can get a great sense for how it works (and what the folks playing it at E3 this week are seeing). Swing by and watch! (Don’t feel too bad about missing the Campaign stuff – that is NOT being shown on the floor, you have to be a bigwig to get that.)(Louis Wu 16:31:59 UTC)

Hawty McBloggy found a pretty novel way to listen to your favorite tunes. Go look!(mnemesis 16:30:30 UTC)

A quick summary of comics since Monday, before running back out to E3:

• The Catfish posted 2501 Episode 59 (on Monday) and Episode 60 (yesterday) – thanks, urk
• Elnea put up Halo Action Figure Theater 182 (Puppet Masters) – and a new side of Cortana is revealed. (You can reveal MORE of her?)
• Adam Susskind let us know that Chaos Theory Episode 23 (Destructive Interference) is online – the series is winding down, only two episodes left!
• Bloogyo told us about Rat’s Nest Episode 16 6 – new questions asked
• ODS Steve #27 (Gnat a Problem) is live now over at Hawty McBloggy’s – I think the guys might be in trouble.

No Reclaimer yet… but we have to get out of here.(Louis Wu 16:25:10 UTC)

Leviathan adds another episode to his graphic novelette, “A Sangheili’s War Is Never Over” on the forum. Nice. Check it out!(mnemesis 16:16:21 UTC)
