Grand Valley
TDSpiral also whipped up a gorgeous piece of artwork – this one’s concept art rather than promotional, but it’s just as nice to look at. (He started a thread about it on our forum, as well.) (Louis Wu 14:47:58 UTC)

Halo: Reach poster by Halcylon
Halcylon has whipped up a very poster for Halo: Reach – it’s not quite big enough for large-format printing, but it IS quite nice to look at. Thanks to ElusiveEagle519 for bringing it to our attention.(Louis Wu 14:47:08 UTC)

IGN for Haiti – Oonsk Sells Big
Gah. I missed the IGN for Haiti auction endings yesterday, and they don’t seem to have put up any way to look at already-finished auctions, so it’s unclear how they did. I DO have a link for the Oonsk and Mister Chief painting by Frank O’Connor, though; I can’t tell you who won, but I can say that the final price was $662. Not too shabby at all!(Louis Wu 14:46:08 UTC)

Still missing a Johnson code for ODST Firefight? Here’s another pair of chances! Go find ’em! (Louis Wu 14:45:08 UTC)

AH: Assassin's Creed 2 DLC: Overpricing Issue
The new DLC pack “Sequence 12: Battle of Forli” has been released today, but don’t go buying just yet!
Seem’s there’s been a mistake with the pricing, and the pack is currently costing…how much?
That’s right, over 90,000! Unless you have that much cash to burn, I’d seriously suggest waiting until the pack is released for the correct price of 320MSP. There are no achievements associated with this DLC.
Update: The DLC pack has been fixed, still no achievements as planned, but at least you’re not paying a fortune for it.
