Creamer Explains why Firefight is Friends-Only
There is a vocal group of gamers who, when they discovered that Halo 3: ODST’s Firefight mode wouldn’t have a Matchmaking component (that is – you can’t go in alone and be matched up with random teammates via LIVE), complained loudly – why couldn’t Bungie let them play the way they wanted? Kotaku Australia asked the same question last week – but at least they asked someone who could answer. Curtis Creamer explained the rationale behind a friends-only Firefight mode.

Sharing is Caring
FyreWulff is beginning to put together a website called ‘Burn My Minutes’ – it’s a way to share Bungie Pro rendering minutes with those who might need them. He’s currently looking for beta-testers – swing by and read the post, and if you’ve got one extra minute per month, join him! (Louis Wu 11:53:53 UTC)

Stabtime!
This video showed up on NeoGAF… and made me laugh a LOT. If you wondered what Frankie does when he’s not facilitating Halo anime… wonder no more. (Louis Wu 11:53:35 UTC)

Wednesday Comic Roundup
We haven’t had a lot of comic news recently – and today’s not a whole lot different. Hawty McBloggy let us know about ODS Steve #37 (POW) (Sarge might be in trouble)… and gunluva noticed a minor Halo reference in the latest VG Cats. That’s all we go for ya! (Louis Wu 11:53:12 UTC)

Halo in your daily life
Hawty McBloggy posted a pair of Halo-related articles yesterday – a fan noticed the similarities between Halo 2’s ship-to-ship bomb and a particular type of fruit… and Hawty has come up with a series of Halo multiplayer-related drinking games. (Halo and alcohol don’t mix, unless you don’t really care about hitting your targets…) This is not an encouragement to drink while underage, or drink irresponsibly. (Louis Wu 11:52:39 UTC)
