Adam Grumbo let us know that his Podcast #6 is now up on YouTube (in HD!). You can learn how to make a mold of a Hayabusa helmet, with guest host Ithaca/Dave from the 405th. Fun stuff! (Louis Wu 17:27:03 UTC)

xPimpYo drives a lot. Check out a montage of the Halo 3 roadtrip in HD. Thanks, urk. (Louis Wu 17:26:37 UTC)

Tyler, from Young Street Productions, sent word that they’ve posted a Forecast Easter Short. I don’t think you’ll learn anything about American holidays or culture by watching it… but you might laugh.(Louis Wu 17:24:15 UTC)

Operation Chastity, the fan-driven movie project, finally has a proper website – thanks to the 405th’s Adam Grumbo. Go Adam, and go Pete! Check out their handiwork (fleshing out quickly) at OperationChastity.com. (Louis Wu 17:23:34 UTC)

Bryan Simon ran a Song Cover contest – we mentioned it last month. Bryan told us today that he’s picked a winner! Congrats to the Ninja Adventures – and the special mentions he’s included as well.(Louis Wu 17:15:02 UTC)

We don’t usually put up newsposts about new websites – after all, new ones come online daily. However, GeneticSpartan stopped by with a video promo for Haloasis.com that’s pretty cool… watch it, and if you’re interested in making videos, join ’em!(Louis Wu 13:21:36 UTC)

Not sure if you’ll be able to get to it – Bungie.net is acting wonky – but last night urk posted a new ‘Broken In’ article, this time focused on Michael Wu, Bungie’s Environmental Art Lead. Michael shares the secrets that got him into the company, and the things that make Bungie special. Give it a read!(Louis Wu 13:21:00 UTC)

Hawty McBloggy has posted Friday Caption Fun, Round 42 – and this week’s picture is a little strange. Can you make it funny? (Louis Wu 13:20:10 UTC)

It’s Friday, so it’s time for another comic update:

• Elnea posted Halo Action Figure Theater 169: Dead Rising. I have to say, the whole breakdown of the fourth wall’s freaking me out a little.
• According to Bungie.net (which is acting a bit strange today), there’s a new 2501 – Episode 38 is ‘Suspicions’.
• Dilly noticed a tiny Halo reference in yesterday’s Least I Could Do.
• Bloogyo let us know that Rat’s Nest Episode 8 7 is live.
• TTL Demag0gue stopped in with word of Reclaimer 175 – Scratching the Surface. Looks like there’s more to the Cavalcada than anyone knew…

That’s it until Monday!(Louis Wu 13:19:20 UTC)

RandomSauce gave us a heads-up that the next Mythbusters video will be a community effort – if you want to participate, read his post for details on what’s needed! (Louis Wu 13:18:55 UTC)

Only two new pieces in the Fan Fiction section this week – but they’re both pretty meaty. Go read!(Louis Wu 13:18:21 UTC)

There’s a trailer for Halo 3: ODSC on YouTube. C? You’ll have to watch it. (Thanks, Dani.)(Louis Wu 13:17:47 UTC)

I told myself I wouldn’t post news until you could actually BUY it… but Toxic Mayhem has pointed out a story at Marvel.com that suggests that Uprising, Episode 4 (originally slated for release on October 31, 2007) might actually hit shelves next Wednesday, April 15. (Only 532 days late! Assuming, of course, that it actually DOES get released on Wednesday…) Wondering what happens to the Master Chief? Wonder no more! (There are seven preview pages in that Marvel.com story, if you want a sneak peek.) (Louis Wu 19:40:03 UTC)
