Fixing Continuity, Retroactively
Cody Miller has decided to put together a list of changes that would need to be made to correct the continuity breaks that Reach introduced into the Halo universe. It’s a pretty small list. Go see if you agree with it! Update: Oops, I read the post carelessly. Cody didn’t write this – he simply brought it to us. The author is William Swartzendruber.(Louis Wu 18:24:45 UTC)

FB Ninja FB Montage
NeoGAF’s Booshka pointed out a montage from Ninja, a current player on Final Boss – the man is frighteningly accurate with a sniper rifle. (That’s not to say he’s a slouch with ANY other weapon.) Gameplay, in general, is over the top. (That’s a good thing.) Go watch.(Louis Wu 15:00:21 UTC)

Maybe it’s just pretty pictures
Over at GAF, Zeouterlimits pointed out an article at Destructoid about the E3 MS Press Conference tickets… and what they might reveal. Interesting speculation! Update: Frankie stopped in to crush a few dreams – turns out, the agency who created the tickets just wanted attendees to put stickers on their their badges to identify with a favorite Xbox motif. Ah, well.(Louis Wu 16:34:19 UTC)

More on Destiny – Maybe
Haven’t been keeping up on news-scraping from NeoGAF – time to fix that. Willeth wrote up a little tidbit about Bungie’s upcoming project, now known as ‘Destiny’ – his source is unnamed, and uncorroborated, but the information fits the data we have, so take it as you will.(Louis Wu 16:31:32 UTC)

Looking for Reach on the cheap? Wal-Mart now has it for 25 Bucks (USD) Thanks to Schedonnardus for noticing! Update: KP pointed out that the price is lower on Xbox LIVE Marketplace, as well – it’s $40 there, rather than $25, but there’s no driving involved at all.(GrimBrother One 14:52:17 UTC)
