I Love Mystery Orbs
Machinima’s “Inside Gaming” show went to E3 and had their very own stage demo and interview with 343StudiosIndustries’ Josh Holmes.

He Also Invented Fermentation
If anyone thought they could question the dedication of Louis Wu before now, they’ve just lost all ground to stand on, as the Inventor of the Halo Community himself traveled all the way across the country to bring you an incredibly important Halo 4 image. Drink it in, community. (GrimBrother One 13:59:43 UTC)

Podtacular 293: Halo 4 at E3 2012
Download
Today was the first day of E3 2012 and what better way to start off the Xbox Media Briefing with some Live-action, Halo 4 Campaign demo to satisfy our hunger for more Halo goodies. 343i made a huge impression on everyone today and put up an awesome show. There are so many tid-bits from today’s demo to take away from, including the new Prometian enemies and weapons, the joining of the Infinity and Master Chief in the campaign, Cortana’s rampancy, and much more. We tried to hit all the topics of information that came out today, but we are sure to see more throughout the duration of the expo. Community member UnrealCh13f joins us for this show as well as short guest appearances from Nak3dEli and Greenskull who graciously game us some time in the midst of their busy video editing, which I will soon endeavor. Enjoy

The New ‘Analyze! Scan!’
During the Microsoft presser, you might have noticed Halo 4 play a supporting role in the showing-off of the new “Xbox Smart Glass” technology. It featured some very cool new Waypoint integration with the game itself, something you can check out right here. Looks awesome!(GrimBrother One 19:47:02 UTC)

Commissioning
If you were wondering about that live-action bit at the beginning of the Halo 4 presentation, it looks not not be a part of the upcoming Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn webfilm series, but instead is a standalone live-action trailer called “Commissioning“, and you can catch it all by its lonesome right here. Check it out!(GrimBrother One 19:44:15 UTC)

Taking A Leak, and Talking About It
Duststorm wanted to let us know that Episode 292 of Podtacular is live, and discusses and speculates on some of the leaked content that has been floating around. As this speculation might become moot in a few short hours, why not use this episode to pass the time to E3! Give it a listen.(GrimBrother One 13:19:56 UTC)

Someone Send This Guy To South Florida
A few things to mention before stuff goes nuts, Der Flatulator picked up something on Reddit’s r/halo that surprised me, mainly because I’m not a huge fan of the Infection gametype. This game clip however, is down right bonkers. Amazing work!(GrimBrother One 13:16:04 UTC)

Podtacular 292: Yingbell
Download
One of the things we know everyone wants is information: it’s up to the person whether or not they want something spoiled for them. If you are one of those people, then you’ll want to steer clear of this show that speculates on all the leaked screenshots and videos from the past week. Our stance here at Podtacular is to tell you about what is leaked, but we will not take any of this information as official until we have heard it from the horses mouth itself. With that said, take any information you hear us talk about with a grain of salt until 343i says otherwise. Enjoy

They always are a great resource for times like these as well, so whether you are here, there, or everywhere, enjoy the E3 coverage! And in case you missed it before, find all the details on how you can catch the briefing yourself right here. HAPPY HALO-ING!(GrimBrother One 05:13:26 UTC)
