Halo Creative Writing Event: August Results
From Sir Boobington:
In this past month of August, bullets were fired and victories were won… and lost, not with a controller, but with a keyboard of ten motivated and dedicated Halo fans, bringing their own personal Halo Universe alive for all of us to read. I would like to personally thank all the participants of the recent Creative Writing Event for their interest and work they have shown me, and all the readers as well. I would also like to thank 343i’s Jessica Shea for letting me operate this event and also providing rewards for the participants and myself. Hope you enjoying reading their stories just as much as I did!

Joe Staten To Leave Bungie
Well, I have to say this comes as somewhat of a shocking surprise. Of course Bungie undergoes turnover like any other organization– the bigger it is, the more churn it has.
Fan community members I’ve known have gone to work for Bungie. Some have moved on, others are still there. Some Bungie employees, even founders, moved on when the studio was bought by Microsoft. Some moved on when it became independent. For the most part, Bungie maintains the “Bungie Way” even as old faces leave and new ones arrive.
Still, this one stings. Joseph Staten is leaving Bungie after fifteen years. He’s been with Bungie since the Myth days. He will be Mythed.
Staten’s last four years at Bungie have been spent working on Destiny, so no doubt his influence will be felt there, not only by those playing the first installment next year, but by those who play in that world over the next decade. What then?
I think it’s a perfect time for Bungie to find out what Greg Kirkpatrick has been up to– just in time to tool up for making a new Marathon game.

GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLL!
From Pony:
Mind the zany title, readers. If you’ve had a moment to try Halo 4?s most recent game type addition, you already understand.
The latest DLC from 343 Industries contains a fresh spin on your beloved Halo matchmaking. It is the USNC’s newest Spartan vs. Spartan athletic competition: Ricochet. I’ll do my best to describe the aforementioned game type, but that’s not the easiest task.

Descend – A Halo 4 Montage
From SillyGooseGaming:
It was approximately 3-4 months ago when Snipester first messaged me about making a montage for him. I remember seeing his H4M1 around the time Halo 4 came out and I liked his clips, so based on that montage I had an idea. I’ve never done a “Salaya” style montage so I took on his H4M2 to see what I could do with angles and those types of clips. Enjoy!
