Of Frogs and Music
Congratulations to Kermit, who was the random winner of the latest round of Mastrbiggy and Commander, a giveaway fueled by the goodwill (and wallet!) of our very own mastrbiggy. Kermit goes home with a brand-new copy of the Limited Edition Official Soundtrack of Halo 4. (Well, he’s probably already home. He just has to wait for the mail to come.) Thanks to everyone who entered – and especially to mastrbiggy for making it all possible!(Louis Wu 21:58:55 UTC)

Halo 4 Matchmaking Update: 8.26.13
Matchmaking Playlist Update
Based on community feedback, we have made some updates to the Champions Bundle DLC playlist. Check out the details below.
In Ricochet, we have updated the score limit to 200, as we observed that some games were ending a bit quicker than expected. Also, all random ordnance has been disabled for Ricochet matches. Lastly, we’ve updated the Pitfall map variant across the board so that the Shotgun is no longer placed on initial ordnance, but rather an on-map weapon. It is still located in the same exact spot and respawns every three minutes, but now has one spare clip and does not have an ordnance indicator above it.

Halo Wars Cutscenes – Now Local
For the past three years, HaLo2FrEeEk of The Infectionist has hosted the Halo Wars cutscenes he rendered, and we’ve simply provided links in our Cutscene Library. However, Morpheus recently noticed that The Infectionist seems to be offline – so we’ve gone ahead and made the files local. They’re beautiful cutscenes; they deserve a place to be downloaded from.(Louis Wu 22:37:08 UTC)

Contrast – A Halo 4 Montage
From FatRatLOL:
Here’s a new Halo 4 montage with sort of a Breaking Bad theme. I thought it was fitting to release it a few hours before tonight’s episode airs 🙂 It’s probably one of my fastest but still favorite edits, since I really love the song.
