Halo 3 Documentary – QT HD available
Okay, so here’s the deal. A few days ago, a really cool movie was released by Bungie – ‘Halo 3: Behind The Scenes’. It came out in lots of flavors, lots of sizes… but the highest-resolution QuickTime, a gorgeous HD 720p version weighing in at 400 mb, had a problem; the last 20 seconds of the video got corrupted every time they tried to upload the file to the servers. The word in the latest Weekly Update is that the problem still isn’t solved. Now, 400 MB is WAY too big for us to handle as a direct download – especially if we’re the only host, and the file is as popular as this one is. But this is EXACTLY the sort of thing that BitTorrent is good at. And we can certainly spare 20Mbit/sec of seed bandwidth, to help folks get started… so with Bungie’s blessing, we’re offering the HD QuickTime version of this film as a torrent. If you’ve been waiting for this version, wait no longer – grab a BitTorrent client and start sharing! (For those who’ve been waiting for this but cannot or will not use BitTorrent – I really do apologize, but a 400MB file might kill us. Really.)

Tumbleweeds and Nonagenarians
Tonight’s Weekly Update focuses on the XBL playlists (there are still 20 million games of Halo 2 played each month – WOW!), plus info on what’s been going on in the office this week, and another great installment of the Waaahmbulance. Go read – at Bungie.net or in our Weekly Update Archive. Frankie, as usual (though not always) was first – though he’s stuck true to his ‘no more Firsts’ pledge after the Halo 3 trailer came out, and has titled this post ‘Free Food’ or something.

Indulge him for a minute.
Hmm… I usually stay away from the Story-related stuff until the Story Page crew picks it up… but this seemed pretty cool to me. Check out bikeman704’s speculations on the Ark in the Halo 3 trailer, and where else you might have seen one…

StuntMutt Kidnapped or Worse?
Fans of tragicomic strip creator StuntMutt will be saddened to hear that the onetime vendor of horrifying puns and other three panel atrocities is apparently missing, feared kidnapped or worse. The evidence is in two consecutively amusing strips, both deliberately funny. Click here for Proof.

He’s Deep.
There’s a fantastic interview with Marty O’Donnell over at 1Up.com – Halo 3, Bungie, music, movies… and (maybe) what’s coming. Go watch! (Flash format, about 38 mb.) If you swing by GameVideos.com, you can actually grab larger versions, in WMP or QuickTime formats (MUCH larger), as well. Thanks, Mark McDonald and Eastbeast314.

Help Dupid get to Anaheim
I don’t want to make a habit of this… but sometimes, It’s nice to lend a hand to folks in need. AJay dropped us a note that a friend of his, Dupid, was headed to MLG Anaheim with an all-girl team, but her sponsor backed out at the last minute, and now she’s stuck with no cash and no way to get there. Swing by this forum post if you want to help out.

Haha – wait… I don’t get it.
