343 Snapshot: Parking
Halo is a fictional universe. However, the place where it’s created is not. Serving as home to both Mister and Master Chief, little else is known about the inside (or outside) of our studio…until now. Enjoy a teeny tiny peek inside 343 industries, and if you have a hankering to see or learn about something that isn’t overly top secret, send it to bsangel[at]halowaypoint.com and we’ll see what we can do!

A Certain Sense of Scalemaster
Kotaku highlighted a fantastic piece of art by DeviantArt member Dirk Loechel that compares the size (and look for that matter) of an absolute mess load of starships from various sci-fi universes, including the obvious smattering of Halo craft. It’s an awesome way to spend an hour just perusing over, and imagining them all as one massive fleet headed through the galaxy. Go and check it out! Thanks to drdoctor for mentioning it on our forums as well. (GrimBrother One 14:48:59 UTC)

Halo 4 LASO – Immaterial Trailer
The Tyrant released a trailer he calls ‘Immaterial‘ – it shows off a few minutes of gameplay from Halo 4’s Midnight, on Legendary, with All Skulls On… and he tears through a section that has taken me hours (WITHOUT skulls) in what seems like moments. Fantastic! Go watch.(Louis Wu 17:42:17 UTC)

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.
