Jimmy Fallon loves video games. So much, in fact, that he has dubbed June 11-15 “Video Game Week”. Tonight, as part of the festivities, Josh Holmes (Creative Director of Halo 4) will be there, demo in hand, discussing the return of the Chief. Late Night with Jimmy Fallon starts at 12:35/11:35c, so night owls, early risers, and all available Crawlers should be ready then. See you there! And by there, we of course mean in front of your television. w00t!

Global – A Halo: Reach Community Montage
From Alex:This is a Halo: Reach community montage put together by Mattisson, entitled, “GLOBAL”.

The intro is breathtakingly stunning, the cinematography is wonderfully done, and the special effects are awesome. Enjoy!

It’s all about Frank today.
The Metro has an interview with Frank O’Connor this morning, as well (Frank was pretty busy last week) – there’s a bunch of interesting stuff, but OXM’s takeaway tidbit was all about how some fans overreact to glimpses they’ve gotten.
