Wondering when you’ll get OFFICIAL word about what’s coming next from 343 studios? Phil Spencer tweeted to a fan that news would be coming to E3:

@MarvelousJoJo Halo news will be coming at E3. 343i has a great plan in place, will be cool to share with everyone.

Player vs. Player. Tester vs. Software.

The Weekly Halo Bulletin was posted last night at Halo Waypoint (and, of course, in our Halo Bulletin Archive) – go give it a read! There’s stuff about upcoming Matchmaking updates (Medal Madness seems… well, a little mad), some great stuff on Halo: Escalation #3, info about an update to the Waypoint mobile app, and some pretty purple screenshots. Explore!(Louis Wu 14:32:59 UTC)

DeathMcGunz let us know about a new machinima series called ‘Echo Falls’ – Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 are both online now. I’m having a little trouble following the storyline – but I love the use of Halo 3/Reach/Halo 4 in the footage. Check it out! (Louis Wu 22:17:24 UTC)

The Secrets Within published an article that asks whether or not we should hate Dr. Halsey – the article provides a deep look into the philosophical and ethical reasoning behind Halsey’s actions. Definitely worth checking out! Thanks, Flugelmeister.(mastrbiggy 18:54:00 UTC)

Awesome. A truly spectacular Grunt costume for an 8-10 child is for sale on eBay right now; auction ends 21 hours from when I’m writing this, so if you want this, now’s the time to jump in. I sort of wish I were 8 again; I’d buy this. (Well, I’d make my folks buy it, I guess.) Go look.(Louis Wu 05:53:13 UTC)

Nikko B201 is back in the saddle with the first mention of Fails of the Weak 179 – AH.com or YouTube, it’s (again) a mix of Halos – this time it’s Reach and Halo 4. Go watch!(Louis Wu 21:01:10 UTC)

We’ve pointed out a lot of LEGO creations over the years – scarab stopped in with a couple of links that show off a whole bunch. Some I’ve seen before, some are brand-new to me. Pretty amazing collection of creativity! Take a look. (Louis Wu 21:00:25 UTC)

Over at Comparative Geeks, there’s a look at the Halo 3 titles (Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST) in the context of feminist-related tropes. And neither game comes off too well. Interesting read! (Louis Wu 20:55:59 UTC)

RVideo shot us a note about the final Halo 3 montage from Detox – 15 minutes of effects and gameplay. Nice work, overall! Check it out.(Louis Wu 20:51:21 UTC)
