Obie let us know that a Halo 3 machinima series he started back in December has been updated with a second episode. Little Red Adventures: Episode 2 follows Little Red and Goosey as they continue their search for hacks for Halo 3 – and meet some new friends! Great cinematography, lots of fun. You can watch this on YouTube, or you can download the high-res Divx version (55 mb) from Obie’s site – or you can grab a QuickTime version (57 mb) from us. Enjoy it!(Louis Wu 15:26:08 UTC)

Hawty McBloggy found another Halo-themed 3D Steregraphic video – this one shows some cool action on High Ground, and if crossing your eyes is too much work, there’s a section of the video that let’s you see the action with standard 3D Glasses (Red and Blue lenses). Check it out1(Louis Wu 13:41:45 UTC)

Wil, from Mindquirk Software, let us know that there’s a new version of Xbox Live Friends, with new Halo 3 features (screenshots, recent games stuff) – if you’re running Mac OSX 10.5 (Leopard), grab this! It’s free, and it’s cool!(Louis Wu 13:39:12 UTC)

Bungie’s posted the June 27 Bungie Weekly Update quite a bit earlier than usual (it’s been up since before 4 pm, their time) – it contains more exhortations for anticipation of Good Things on both Bungie Day and PAX Weekend, a recap of the Content License Transfer Tool we mentioned yesterday, new overhead screens of Cold Storage, a matchmamking update, and… something else. As usual, you can read it in our Weekly Update Archive, if you choose.(Louis Wu 23:31:06 UTC)

Costume City is selling Rubie’s Master Chief costumes – the Collector’s model is listed as in stock, shipping now. (The two cheaper models are ‘coming soon’.) These are the same costumes we mentioned back in February; that site is listing a July 31 ship date for these items. With the exception of the high-end model, these are definitely the cheapest way to get into a Master Chief outfit you don’t make yourself this year! Thanks, Parabus. (Louis Wu 19:51:32 UTC)
