Cortana4ever was sad at the thought that Halo fans might not see her take on this rather bizarre set of moments from a customs game last week… you should watch. And laugh.(Louis Wu 16:51:58 UTC)

Make that piggy the star!

Shoot stuff, win a console.

I checked our contest email over the weekend, and there are only about 50 valid entries for the KontrolFreek Headshot Heard ‘Round The World contest – you guys remember there’s a Halo: Reach Xbox 360 on the line, right? All you have to do is submit a cool headshot video that’s less than a minute long, and you’re in the running! Do you not like free stuff, or something?(Louis Wu 16:36:38 UTC)

Congratulations to Final Boss, who came back from the Losers Bracket to win MLG DC this weekend! (They were placed in the Losers Bracket by Dynasty – but then came back to beat them in the Losers Bracket Finals, and took Triggers Down in the WB Finals. Amazing!) Full recaps can be found on MLGPro.com. (Louis Wu 16:33:02 UTC)

hotshot revan brought our forum’s attention to a rumor essentially claiming that 343 Industries is looking to remake/remaster the previous Halo games (or at least Halo: Combat Evolved) using the Reach engine. Plausible? Huge stretch? Go look and discuss… (GrimBrother One 16:22:55 UTC)

AytonHunter wants everyone’s thoughts on a new Reach Machinima short called “I Sense Danger!“. I’m just impressed John Cleese found time in his busy schedule to do voice work for them… (GrimBrother One 15:52:35 UTC)

Apparently, Spencermx14 was feeling a little front-page envy when he saw Nevan’s Birthday Cake, so he wanted to show off his own. Pretty sweet! (GrimBrother One 15:16:02 UTC)

You might have noticed that the newsposts today have a new name attached to them… a grateful welcome to GrimBrother One, who’s stepped on board as our freshest newshound. (Heck, he was doing a lot of the work from the cheap seats already… we figured it was only fair to move him up on stage.) What does this mean for you, the Halo fan reading this? Not a huge amount, actually – except that if you’re planning on emailing us news, mail it to halo@bungie.org, rather than directly to, say, me – because when I’m not around, news in my inbox just sits there.(Louis Wu 15:07:36 UTC)

For those of you who might not have noticed, Pete Cooper let everyone know on the Operation Chastity site that the OC Warthog built for their film is featured in the November issue of Land Rover Owners International magazine. Awesome! Also, Pete’s most recent blog entry mentions a website revamp and a new monthly mailing list. Go get your fan flick fix!(GrimBrother One 14:33:10 UTC)

TTL Demag0gue dropped by to let every know that the latest Reclaimer issue is out, and it just happens to also be the first of its series done using Reach. Looking good! (GrimBrother One 14:06:41 UTC)

POSTMORTEM from Forward Unto Dawn sent along a YouTube video he found that takes a pretty clear look at what the hidden voices are saying in the first Datapad in Halo: Reach. Pretty cool stuff to let your mind chew on, and it’s only the first one! It’s the first time I had seen it… go check it out! Update: Apparently, the reason I hadn’t seen it before is because in my spoiler-avoiding first few days of Reach, I missed this thread by thebruce0, where he directs us to LOTS of awesome things he has found so far, regarding the datapads and more. Go check it out if you missed that too! (GrimBrother One 12:23:46 UTC)
