In the latest HipHopGamerShow, Gerard Williams talked about the rumors around Bungie’s next game. Among them was one I hadn’t heard before: the possibility of an NGP version. He stressed several times that it “could” happen, but he said if it did happen, it would release after it hit the consoles. The Bungie section of the video begins at 19 minutes and 40 seconds. Go watch! (Hitmonchan107 16:50:33 UTC)

Minecraft Forums user Garified built two UNSC frigates, one small and one large-scale, in Minecraft. Judging by the picture he provided for reference, he modeled them after the UNSC Savannah from Reach. Pretty neat!(Hitmonchan107 20:22:16 UTC)
