AOTCR bridge descent via Hunter
Rockslider wasn’t content with using a Gold Elite to help him off the first bridge on Assault on the Control Room – he decided to see if a Hunter would give him a hand. (Well, a fuel rod gun.) Looks like the answer is ‘yes’!(Louis Wu 16:33:38 UTC)

Achievement HORSE #10
The latest Achievement HORSE features a whole swath of maps from our very own pete_the_duck – and I get the feeling that Geoff might not ever want to play a pete_the_duck map again… (honestly, though, they look like a blast!)(Louis Wu 14:10:51 UTC)

Fort Team Charlie series trailer
If you’ve been around for a while, the name ‘Fire Team Charlie‘ might mean something to you. (If it doesn’t… you missed a great time in Halo history.) BennyFortman stopped by last night to announce that they’re back – with a trailer for Fort Team Charlie, a Halo/Team Fortress 2 hybrid machinima. The trailer rocks! Go watch it.

New info about next Bungie title imminent?
Yesterday was Rumor Day at Carvel, it seems. Activision released a year-end financial report (thanks, Beckx) that contained this intriguing (if poorly-worded) quote:These opportunities include Blizzard Entertainment’s games currently in development, robust investment in forthcoming Call of Duty titles, the development of a best-in-class digital community surrounding the Call of Duty franchise, a new property from Bungie and an innovative new universe with broad appeal that will be revealed at Toy Fair later this week and will bring the world of toys, video games and the Internet together in an unprecedented way.
(Emphasis added) It’s hard to tell if the new property from Bungie (which we already knew was coming) and the ‘innovative new universe’ are related, from the way that’s written – but we DO know that Bungie’s 10-year agreement with Activision involves games in a new universe. Will we be hearing more about Bungie’s new game this week? Or will we be hearing about ANOTHER Activision universe? Wait and see! (Louis Wu 14:09:16 UTC)

Defiantly Vague
Yes, there are rumors around the net of a new map pack. Yes, it was leaked by the French (are you surprised?). No, we have no confirmation (for or against) from Bungie or 343 Industries. You can read about it on our forum, or you can visit Joystiq for a summary. When we know more, you’ll know more. (Louis Wu 14:08:39 UTC)

Bungie Carnage Report, Issue Le Deux
As Mariachi pointed out, the second issue of Bungie’s Carnage Report (a relatively new newsletter designed to keep fans informed of the latest goings-on at Bungie) was mailed out yesterday; we’ve started an archive for them. (Issue 001 is here – thanks, ZayneHumphrey! – and Issue 002 is here. One of these days, we’ll even put up an index file for them.) If you’re an avid fan, there’s probably not a LOT new in here… but it’s a good way to make sure you’re caught up! (You can sign up for your very own copy by visiting your Bungie.net Profile, and editing the Profile info to include emailed updates.)(Louis Wu 14:06:18 UTC)

Halo: Reach – "Defiant Map Pack" leaked
Recently, on the French website Halo Destiny posted an article with images from what appears to be the next DLC for Halo: Reach, the Defiant Map Pack.
The website took the news story down at Bungie and Microsoft’s request, however at the time of writing, you can view the images on this Flickr profile. The site allegedly had the map names up as Condemned, Unearthed and Highlands; although in the image gallery Highlands was named Training Preserve.
At the moment these details are all rumour and speculation, as there has been no offical word from Bungie or Microsoft. However, once more official details are released, we’ll have them up here.
