(And don’t miss sparkbears’ Mister Chief helmet, either!)(Louis Wu 13:43:16 UTC)

We are two weeks away from the new weapon balancing being updated across the board for matchmaking. Not too long ago, some community members were flown out to 343 to play test the current implementation and got some good quality feedback for the content of this week’s bulletin. In some other, not specifically Halo news, the official trailer for Destiny was released. It’s a mix of live action and in-engine capture and it is looking really good. Nak3d Eli takes this seat as this week’s co-host to bring you this epic news. Enjoy

HBO regular TDSpiral is spotlighted today on Halo Waypoint’s Fan Art Focus – his Arbiter is nothing if not majestic!(Louis Wu 18:48:12 UTC)
