Bungie Embedded Video Helper
While it’s very, very cool that rendered videos from Bungie.net can be embedded anywhere, it’s somewhat less cool that they’re set to autostart for all embeds. This means if someone puts together a page with a bunch of videos, when you open the page, you’ll be faced with a cacophony of sound and moving images. Francis stopped by yesterday – twice – to make your life a little better, if you use Firefox; he wrote a Greasemonkey script that gives you far more control over B.net embeds. Read the Update post for full details and the latest version… and breathe a little easier when you open a page full of vids.(Louis Wu 16:04:58 UTC)

Pentathlon coverage redux – and BWU
The Pentathlon coverage yesterday was filled out over the course of the afternoon and evening – if you haven’t viewed it for a while, go read it again. Great pictures, funny stories. And at the bottom is a brief but fact-filled Bungie Weekly Update (thanks, padraig08) – playlist updates abound. Good stuff coming for Firefight in just a couple of days! (Also, a Blame Stosh that made me laugh out loud.) If you want just the weekly update, you can read it (with no Silverlight) in our Weekly Update Archive.(Louis Wu 16:00:34 UTC)

AH: 2010: The Year in Gaming "Chicken" Edition
We had so much success in 2010 with Easter Egg videos, I thought it only fair to show where they come from.
Literally.

AH: Pigs Will Fly Next: Dark Void Gets DLC Achievements!
In a strange and odd bit of news Dark Void FINALLY gets the missing achievements for DLC that was released almost one full year ago. This old bit of dlc will cost you 400 space points (or $5) and will get you an additional 250GS. You can check out all the spiffy new (old) achievements here!
Also wanted to thank Tudor for actually adding the achievements to the site!

A Titantic Coincidence?
So,G4TV’s The Feed thought it interesting enough to note an interesting connection brought up by the podcast “Legendary” on GameBreaker.tv. The gist of it is the rumor that the next Gen MMO Blizzard is working on codenamed “Titan” is actually a Halo MMO. Astute Halo news historians will remember that the previously failed Halo MMO concept (by a different developer) shared the same code name. They draw a few interesting connections and give some evidence to link them, but you can watch/listen and form your own opinion. Color me quite skeptical. (GrimBrother One 19:49:03 UTC)

Xorian noticed that today’s ‘Abstruse Goose‘ is Halo-related. (And asks a legitimate question, to boot…)(Louis Wu 19:27:05 UTC)
