Yesterday was Thursday – so Bungie posted a new Breaking In story. This week, it’s Seth Gibson, Technical Artist. His path to Bungie took many twists and turns, and if you’re looking to get a job where he has a job, you could do worse than read about his travels! (Louis Wu 10:38:19 UTC)

Seven new pieces are up in the Fan Fiction section this week – nice number!(Louis Wu 10:37:21 UTC)

Lord Osiris brought us news of a new Grudge Match from IGN – Killzone 2 vs Halo 3. It’s currently available for Insiders only, but apparently will be up for the masses at some point. Which one do they like better? No clue – I let my Insider access lapse.(Louis Wu 10:32:32 UTC)

A summary of the Halo comics that have been released since Wednesday:

• The Catfish posted 2501 – Episode 47 (‘The Other Side’), and told urk about it
• The Guest articles at ReclaimerComic.com continue – Yesterday saw a strip from stealth (thanks, TBB), and today has a new one from xSoB a Dooby. I hope TTL Demag0gue doesn’t feel obligated to expand Reclaimer canon to incorporate these fully… things might get confusing!
• Elnea continues building suspense in the latest Halo Action Figure Theater storyline – Episode 174 (‘M.I.A.’) brings a year-old prophecy back around, and makes me wonder just how much of this stuff she’s got mapped out ahead of time…
• Adam Susskind wrote a book over at Bungie.net, explaining how Chaos Theory Episode 21 (‘No Smoking Bullets’) is live, and how the series as a whole is coming to a close.
• Bloogyo stopped in to announce Rat’s Nest Episode 11 6, and some upcoming improvements to the site.

That should do it for the week!(Louis Wu 10:31:16 UTC)

Z wrote to point out the Apathy Trailer, a teaser for an upcoming montage from PretadoR. Timing is really, really good, and the effects are pretty nice! Available in YouTube HD, or downloadable from FileFront. It’s just over a minute long. (Louis Wu 10:30:40 UTC)

Mr Sark is back! The X-Play gaming pro has set up Sarkathlon 3 – win it and you’ll get your hands on some killer schwag. Go read about it on G4TV.com!(Louis Wu 21:17:03 UTC)

The Bungie Blog highlighted one of the craziest racetracks I’ve ever seen… I think actually playing on it would be an exercise in frustration for all but the most accomplished mongoose drivers, but it LOOKS pretty cool! Video, and download link, in B.net’s post. (Louis Wu 18:18:04 UTC)

The day’s montage roundup, courtesy of urk at B.net:

• A montage called ‘Float On’ from Kamiik
• A minitage from Dutchy, called ‘The Prayer’
• Another Halo 3 Screenshots montage, from A Deaf Boy
• A Tritage from H3Center, called What’s MLG?

Makes you wanna go shoot somebody…(Louis Wu 18:16:20 UTC)
