It’s an exciting time.
bs angel took time between international flights to put together a new Halo Bulletin last night – it’s chock-full of useful info for fans. There’s a bit of forshadowing about E3, some details about all the pre-order bonuses that have been showing up, and a list of changes to the Reach Matchmaking Playlist in June. You can, as always, read it locally in our Halo Bulletin Archive (it loads a bit faster here).(Louis Wu 14:06:45 UTC)

Columns in the Clouds
CGHub’s MikkoK was inspired by the concept art of Wraparound’s environment (for reference, 343 showed this piece a few months ago) – so he created some spectacular fan art showing off his take. So monumental! Thanks, Grizzlei. (Louis Wu 14:06:00 UTC)

Podtacular 291: Pre-Order Goodies
Download
Last week, we started to see retailers who are accepting pre-orders for Halo 4 list their bonus content that will be available with the game when shipped. These bonuses come in unlockable armor skins and emblems for you to use with your Spartan IV. Some of the bonuses are available from multiple retailers, but each region seems to have their exclusive holders of certain bonus items, making it a nightmare for all of those collectable people. We have CruelLEGACEY on the show to talk about some behind-the-scenes stuff for Season 3 of his Waypoint machinima series: Playtime. Enjoy

Of Audio Books and Game Case Arrangement
Last night yours truly joined Justin for Episode 49 of the Drunken Halo Podcast. What started out as a discussion on Glasslands eventually took some weird turns that included a state-of-the-gaming-union soapbox dissertation and storytime with the Burger King. It’s both less, and more, bizzare than it sounds. Give it a listen!(GrimBrother One 18:55:00 UTC)

Halo IRL: A Spartan a Day
Halo is a fictional universe. However, sometimes we catch sight of things in real life that remind us of our favorite science fiction video game franchise. This particular series, titled Halo in Real Life, showcases those very moments. Enjoy the subtle Halo references sometimes spotted when out and about in the real world, and if you have a picture you’d like to submit for possible future inclusion, send it to bsangel[at]halowaypoint.com!

Forum Downtime – 5.30.12
The Halo Waypoint forums are currently down for maintenance. Apparently they wanted the day off to hang out amongst the visible masses of liquid droplets in the sky. While we anticipate them staying suspended in the atmosphere, we do expect them to be back online later today. If you don’t think you can survive another second without talking to your fellow forum goers, you can chat with them (using 140 characters or less) via the Halo Waypoint Twitter list.
