IGN reacts to the Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary announcement by providing their 5 burning questions that they have regarding the game. Take a look and see if you agree!(GrimBrother One 22:48:52 UTC)

Halo 1 is being remade and will launch this November 15 as Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary (or Halo: Combat EA). You will be able to play multiplayer over XBOX Live on 7 maps remastered for the Halo: Reach engine. You’ll also be able to co-op the Campaign. The Campaign is original with updated graphics with a few hidden elements. Thel 3-shot-kill pistol is back! But we should not expect to see Halo 1 physics in the Reach engine.

Halo 4 is intended to be the first of a new trilogy of Halo series games. Whereas the previous Halo games were developed by Bungie, Halo 4 will be developed by 343 Industries. The game continues some time after the ending of Halo 3, and marks a return of the Master Chief as the playable character.

Halo Waypoint has a great comparison gallery that takes a look at the differences – and similarities – between the Classic and Anniversary editions of Halo: Combat Evolved. Go look! ChrisTheeCrappy noticed first on our forums.(GrimBrother One 19:41:14 UTC)

The Halo Waypoint crew has a great piece just up that talks a bit about today’s announcememnts and their thoughts on moving the series forward. Go and check it out!(GrimBrother One 19:35:56 UTC)

It really feels like anything I can write in this post is going to be incredibly underwhelming, but as you may have heard, there were two megaton announcements at E3 for Halo fans. First up was Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, a completely remastered and faithful return of the game that started it all. Maybe the biggest surprise was Microsoft closing the press conference with the announcement of a new Halo Trilogy, starting with Halo 4. Keep tuned here and of course to Halo Waypoint for all the latest as we can give it to you!(GrimBrother One 19:12:10 UTC)

…for the delay in getting some of the major news out on such a crazy day for Halo fans everywhere. Stay tuned though, as we’ll be delivering news and reactions from around the net all afternoon and evening!

Do you love Halo? Do you love amazing art work? Then you better direct your battle-hardened clicky finger over this way so that you may witness one of the most awesome pieces of Halo art you are likely to see. Leviathan is of course behind this work of greatness, having created it for an upcoming auction for the Child’s Play charity. The final poster will be signed by members of Bungie, 343 Industries, and Robot Entertainment. Stellar artwork, and for an awesome cause too! You MUST check it out. After you wipe the drool off your mouth, you can drop by our forum and tell him what you think! While you are at it, don’t forget to check out more of Leviathan’s amazing work right here in his acclaimed Fistful Of Arrows comic.(GrimBrother One 13:25:50 UTC)

Halo Waypoint has some goodies for you this week – there’s a spotlight on the darkest character in the Halo universe, and a pretty cool studio tour of the newest offices of the Rooster Teeth crew – a great look at the space where Red vs Blue (and other cool stuff) is created. As always, if you feel like you might have missed something, there’s a very handy Weekly Wrapup post that contains links to all the interesting content they covered this week. Go explore!(Louis Wu 12:05:53 UTC)

If you swing by the Rooster Teeth website, you’ll find ‘I am The Best‘, a hymn to Church pulled off the RvB Revelation soundtrack. I think Burnie thanks his lucky stars for auto-tune… but this is worth watching just for the rappin’ Elites. Check it.(Louis Wu 21:11:15 UTC)

DeviantARTist Bri-Creative received a shirt that was far too big for her at a Halo event; she hacked it up a bit, and what she was left with was far more appropriate for someone of her build. Nice! (And thanks to Raulboy for letting us know.)(Louis Wu 19:22:29 UTC)

Over at Forward Unto Dawn, Dani has put together Halo E3 2011 Bingo Speculation – a game you can play on your own. We can ALL win! Thanks, DEEP NNN.(Louis Wu 19:19:38 UTC)

Hedgemony posted a promo image for a series of short stories in comic form he’s planning on releasing soon to celebrate Halo’s 10th Anniversary. Looking forward to them!(Louis Wu 19:16:10 UTC)

Jeremiah has offered to provide some information about Megalo, the custom scripting language Bungie uses to create or modify gametypes. You can post questions in that thread – you might even get an answer! Thanks, FyreWulff.(Louis Wu 19:14:02 UTC)

Bungie’s back with the newest Weekly Update. There’s a bit of Bungie Day clarification, some nice details on the June matchmaking update, and a Blame Stosh you’ll get an absolute kick out of. Why aren’t you reading it yet? Do it! (It’s in our Weekly Update Archive, too. Shh! Don’t tell Grim. -lwu)(GrimBrother One 21:56:33 UTC)

It’s not you, it’s us.

GHOSTKILL let us know about Fails of the Weak, Volume 37 – Jack and Geoff laugh at silliness on LIVE. Play good, or they’ll show the world that you’re not playing good.(Louis Wu 20:11:09 UTC)
