Hawty McBloggy and friends are participating in an Xbox LIVE Community Playdate at the end of November – you can find full details at Xbox.com. Swing by to see how you can play! Thanks to mendicantbias00 for the heads-up.(Louis Wu 20:03:12 UTC)

If you’re not in on the Xbox LIVE Preview, you can swing by Kotaku and view a video of Waypoint, as viewed by Stephen Totilo. A view of some of the awards you can snag, and more. Thanks, dCon V. Update: there’s a screenshot-based walkthrough from FyreWulff on our own forum!(Louis Wu 19:05:18 UTC)

FrekldThunder has a pair of kids that wanted to be ODST characters for Halloween – check out how he did!

(His daughter’s helmet started as a standard ODST helmet, but she convinced him she wanted Recon – he did a decent job just with detailing!)(Louis Wu 17:02:49 UTC)
