343 Invades Mexico
Mexican gaming site LevelUp spoke to Kiki Wolfkill and Frank O’Connor about Halo 4 and its development process – it’s got Spanish subtitles if you’re better with Spanish than English. There’s also an interview with artist Gabriel Garza – better known to 343 fans as RoboGabo – though you’ll need to understand Spanish to follow this one. (It’s pretty interesting – Garza discusses what it takes to make it as a Triple-A developer, with a focus on coming from outside the US.) Solid work all around – go watch! (Did you know that Frank liked The English Patient? I didn’t either.) Thanks, Deadly Claw.(Louis Wu 19:05:04 UTC)

Halo 4 shows up in the oddest places
IGN posted a video describing Hugo Weaving’s contribution to the Transformers series – if you’re wondering why this is getting reported on a Halo fansite, it’s because the beginning and the end of the video are ‘corrupted’ with teasers from Halo 4. Hydranockz suggests it’s more Halo 4 ARG-like material. Maybe it’s just straightfoward marketing?(Louis Wu 18:38:13 UTC)

G4TV’s Halo 4 Life-Size Warthog Video
From G4TV:To get ready for Halo 4, X-Play sent Tiffany Smith to the Aria Group to get a behind-the-scenes look at the life-size Halo 4 Warthog. Why did 343 commission a life-size, street legal, replica of the Master Chief’s choice ride? Because they could. 343’s Kiki Wolfkill and Frank O’Connor were on hand to make sure this Warthog was legit.

The Top 10 Sgt. Johnson Lines
MixMaker1 compiled what he considers to be the top 10 lines from 4 games’ worth of Sgt. Johnson. (Most aren’t really lines, but mini-speeches… but it’s a great collection nonetheless.) Bungie’s JonnyOThan noticed a parallel between some Halo 3 lines which eluded a lot of us, before now. Amazing!(Louis Wu 18:29:34 UTC)
