Another Logo
A new logo tweak for our Logos section... and they keep coming. (Louis Wu 17:01:35 UTC) (permalink)
Halo schwag on the Bungie webcam
Cybrfrk noticed an interesting new wearable appearing on the Bungie webcam... or is it wearable? (I guess it could be a backpack, or something.) Anyway, seems clear that the Store will be growing in available items soon... (Louis Wu 15:42:59 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 2 - less anticipated than Half-Life 2?
mastasnypa wrote to us on Wednesday, but we seem to have lost the mail in the crush. VE3D has been running a poll all week (Most anticipated upcoming action sequel?) and Halo 2 is running a distant 3rd, behind Doom 3 and Half-Life 2. Ouch! Have you voted? (Louis Wu 14:58:52 UTC) (permalink)
More pics
Four new desktops for you today in the Wallpaper section... (Louis Wu 14:08:03 UTC) (permalink)
Okay, then.
The second episode of an obscure comic has been added to our Miscellaneous Art section. It's not quite as obscure any more. (Louis Wu 13:53:21 UTC) (permalink)
Free Strategy Guide/Remote - UK XBoxGamer
Ross Mills points out that this month's issue of XBoxGamer (on sale in the UK as of April 11) comes bundled with a free copy of Prima's Official Strategy Guide (nice - I paid $15 for that a while back) and an offer for a free Xbox DVD remote if you subscribe. Not too shabby! (Louis Wu 12:18:45 UTC) (permalink)

Administrivia
I'm going to do my best to clear out the artwork/fiction queues before I leave today... but this is a formal request that all content for submission in the next week or so be mailed to halo@bungie.org, NOT my personal email. I will not be checking email (or doing anything else web-related) for the next 5 days; anything you send to me will sit unnoticed by all until Wednesday/Thursday at the very earliest. Folks have gotten into the bad habit of using my personal email address to submit artwork or movies, instead of the (more widely read) official email... this would be a good time to get OUT of that habit.

Classic Halo Movie - Director's Cut
Almost a month ago, Hickadam, the creator of the wildly popular Asshole movie, wrote to us to let us know that he'd found the original version on his hard drive.
This one was taped off a TV with a camcorder (sorry for the quality), and was my very first try at video editing.
It has some stuff i'm proud of, and other stuff that's kinda embarassing, but I figured, what the heck. Someone might get a kick out of it!
I thought if people like Director's Cuts on real movies, why not have one on a 4 1/2 minute one?
A fine idea. It's only in WMV format (WMP7, so it's viewable on most platforms), and it weighs in at 15.3 mb; you can grab a copy at Mythica. Enjoy! (Louis Wu 01:04:21 UTC) (permalink)
