Dude, you're gonna be so whipped, man
The weekly update has been posted at Bungie's own Bungie.net, and it's a doozy. Not only is it much longer than updates tend to be, but it contains a great deal of specific information about parts of the game we've never heard about before, from evolving exploding buses to scary things that make you want to go wee. Some of the more interesting tidbits, to me, are the emphasis on asymmetrical maps (I'm looking forward to this, but I know there will be a huge amount of complaining by hardcore CTFers) and the revelation that Halo 2 will not have load points- new areas will be loaded "in the background" without interrupting play. Check it out! Update: Frankie wanted to clarify that there are load points - plenty of them, of varying length, between levels. They've just kept them minimal during levels.
