Halo 4 VIP Party vids
CyReN pointed out some videos from a guy named WatermelonWizards – he interviewed Frank at the VIP party last night (it’s really, really, REALLY hard to hear what they’re saying), and he filmed the HBO/GAF vs 343 (with Bravo) Challenge Match that took place at the event. (Fans kicked butt. Bravo only stepped in near the end of the match, when Frank had to do something else… but his pro skillz weren’t enough to turn the tide.) NeoGAF’s voltron64 also filmed the game; hopefully we’ll have his video at some point, too. (Louis Wu 14:46:04 UTC)

It’s an enormous video (nearly 3 hours), so to save you some time, the FUD interview kicks off at 1:27:00, and ends around 1:39:30. Thanks, CyReN.(Louis Wu 14:38:43 UTC)

Scary Mail Sacks and Missed Break-ins
The last Bungie Mail Sack only covered about half the questions submitted – they’ve rectified this by putting out a ‘Part Two’. As always, it’s a great read – both as an insight into Bungie personnel, and a collection of interesting facts in and of themselves! (While you’re there, you should read the last Breaking In, which we accidentally missed last week – Environment Artist Coolie Calihan talks about his road to Bungie. Good stuff!(Louis Wu 14:05:40 UTC)
