Woohoo!

Fable 3 is finally here! And so is our first video for it. Check out part one of our guide to getting the 54 silver and gold keys hidden throughout the game, thus nabbing the “I Am the Key Master” Achievement.

Halo Waypoint has a couple of goodies for your entertainment, too – Post-It Note Artwork: Master Chief is a video showing you one pretty cool thing you can do with a LOT of Post-It Notes, and When your character dies in Halo: Reach is a rather odd machinima that I’m happy to say does NOT reflect any reality I know about. (There’s more than that, of course – those were just two recent pieces that caught my eye.) Go explore!(Louis Wu 20:34:38 UTC)

Nice grab bag of stuff at Bungie.net today:

• Serious Cakes’ Lady Cake Ninja celebrated her solo completion of Reach’s campaign on Legendary by creating a super-cool Ghost cake – go check it out.
• Axilo put together his first Reach minitage – two and a half minutes of boom-boom. (I’m amused that the teaser pic is of an assault rifle.)
• Project Clan released a Halo 3 trick jumping montage – music makes my head hurt, but the jumps are pretty cool.

Go watch.(Louis Wu 19:44:18 UTC)

Yaters went to visit a buddy who works at Bungie (looks like his buddy is Evil Otto), and got a tour of the first level of the studio. Some great pictures in there! Go check it out. (Just so this doesn’t generate a whole lot of headache for Bungie and you – there are no public tours. Even the areas that Yaters got into are off-limits, unless you’ve got an invite – and you ain’t gonna get an invite by asking for one.)(Louis Wu 19:04:41 UTC)

Sarge and Church walk you through the upgrading process.

Going where no man has gone before.

It’s my sweet beginning.

It is time to submit your stuff for our next show discussing the Multiplayer aspect of Halo: Reach, in addition to the three new maps that got announced last week. There’s been a lot of discussion around some of the Forge World maps as well, so let your voice be heard and send us your thoughts on everything multiplayer, including weapons and new gametypes.

10 in 2,500.

This butter-cream will make us brothers.

Almost missed this – but the Rooster Teeth crew has posted Red vs Blue PSA #4 – should you upgrade your armor? They’ll help you decide.(Louis Wu 16:21:05 UTC)

We’ve all heard the rumors of Sasquatch, both in real life and in the new Red Dead DLC, and in this video Geoff and I are going to show you that they’re true! Well, in the game at least. We’re still working on that real life one.

Stuntmutt makes me rave with his puns in today’s One One Se7en. Where’s my bouncer?(Louis Wu 15:36:29 UTC)

thebruce0 was at Reach’s launch event in Toronto, and put together a video record of the event – pretty amazing. (This has been posted before, but never here – and it’s absolutely worth watching. I’m not sure all fans would be as willing to jump into the role-playing required here… but it’s definitely a step up from the typical “would you like a copy of Game Informer with that?”)(Louis Wu 15:22:43 UTC)

Continuing on the Forge train, GodlyPerfection is back with Lesson 32 of his outstanding Forge Lessons. Go and check it out!(GrimBrother One 14:14:46 UTC)

GhaleonEB has updated his Forging blog, with a new article that looks at getting feedback from friends on a work-in-progress… and how to gather information from them directly. Always remember: your creation has to be fun to OTHER people if it’s going to be used…(Louis Wu 12:54:27 UTC)

If you’re curious about the pace at which we’re filling the Challenge thermometer on Bungie.net, there are a couple of useful ways to keep track of things. Over at Bungie.net, Spitfire222 has been putting up comparison images every day, showing the movement of the bar relative to the first day’s movement. Looks like we DEFINITELY complete more challenges on the weekends… And if you’re tired of checking to see if the image has been updated, NeoGAF’s Chapel wrote a script that tweets when the image shifts; you can keep track of these changes by monitoring his #closer2commander Twitter hashtag.(Louis Wu 12:42:28 UTC)

Sl’askia posted a work in progress image showing the latest in her ‘Observing’ piece – TDSpiral was inspired to put together his own WIP image, showing how he draws, as well. Pretty cool to get these glimpses into the creative process!(Louis Wu 12:41:48 UTC)

Why am I posting this comic when I ought to be rounding up followers in Albion? I really should have put in a request for vacation this week…
