More Forward Unto Dawn stuff this morning:
- Big Shiny Robot has an interview with Daniel Cudmore, who plays the Chief in FUD
- Big Shiny Robot (geez, guys) has an interview with Frank O’Connor, focused on the series
- Halo After Dawn has released Episode 9, in which they break down the first episode of the actual movie (thanks, CrazY CroaTia)
- Not fully FUD-related, but it looks like it’s part of the promo material – Frank put together a list of ‘his favorite Halo videos‘ – to see them, click the ‘Watch Frank’s Playlist’ annotation in the top left. Some good stuff in here.
- If you want some high-res promo assets, swing by the Xbox.com Press site – there are new photos, logos, and artwork.

2900d4u (and his brother, 2good4u2) pointed out an IGN walkthrough on the Dutch-branded version of the site that might have gone up a bit early. It shows off Meltdown, one of the last two Multiplayer maps (this one’s a big one, made for Big-Team vehicle combat). Go check it out while you can! (There are also walkthroughs of Complex and Adrift that haven’t been publicized yet.) Update: these are all offline now. Hope you got to see ’em first!(Louis Wu 20:45:22 UTC)

From Tom:

So last week we had the time of our lives! Not only did we get to enjoy the Eurogamer Expo (which included copious amounts of Halo 4) but we also got to attend a Microsoft event the night before (which included even more copious amounts of Halo 4!)

Massive thanks to Microsoft, Xbox, 343 and the lovely Acey Bongos for the invite. Now we get to share it all with you guys!

In this podcast, we go through everything we got to play with over the three days, and we finally get to talk about the new map and vehicle, RAGNAROK and the MANTIS!

A few weeks ago, we mentioned Murder Miners – a low-res indie game that draws lots of inspiration from Halo. Over at NeoGAF, Awesome Barlow pointed out this thread on the Murder Miners forum – it contains all the user-created maps that remake classics from other games (mostly Halo, but CS is represented too). Amazing!(Louis Wu 15:45:20 UTC)
