Dual Wep Goodness
Whoa - missed it; thanks to Ape Man for the heads-up. There's a brand-new Halo 2 multiplayer shot over at Bungie.net... Wow. I'm lovin' it. Go look! (Louis Wu 18:08:34 UTC) (permalink)
And still MORE Bungie.net stuff
Bungie.net is going crazy with new content right now... There is a new music piece (it's been included on the bonus DVD that comes with the Halo Soundtrack, but has never been released officially on the internet before), and a HUGE contest starting up, with prizes ranging from a trip to Bungie Studios to a Halo-branded Xbox to Halo toys and collectibles. (So that you don't get your hopes up, this contest is open to US residents only.) At the moment, the actual entry form seems to be a little... off, but give it a few minutes; I'm sure they'll get it straightened out. (You have until the 25th to register.)

When life gives you lemons...
Today's Calvin and Halo gives pointers on how to look on the bright side. I'd have trouble making a Pelican, too. (Hobbes' Elite rocks, though.) (Louis Wu 13:12:52 UTC) (permalink)
B.net interview at TXB
Brian Jarrard and Frank O'Connor took time out of their hectic schedules recently to talk to César Berardini, of TeamXbox about the development of the new Bungie.net. Buried amongst the quips and one-liners are some nice little tidbits, and enough Halo content to make this postable here. thanks to ghaleoneb for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 12:46:16 UTC) (permalink)
I think I want Clippy back
Hehe - seems some people have had trouble with the new bungie.net... Preston the Cyberdog discovered a hard-to-find secret feature of the new site, and took a screen (203K). Only from Microsoft... (Louis Wu 12:33:09 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Map Tools v3.5 released

The NEW Bungie.net
You've been waiting for it... the day has come. The new Bungie.net has launched... and it's beautiful. Totally new navigation... new content, new forums, and not one, but TWO new top stories: one details the new tidbits available on Bungie.net, the other takes a serious stroll down memory lane, looking at pre-Xbox Halo (with tons and tons and TONS of high-quality versions of older screenshots, and some NEW older screenshots). (This was originally written many hours ago... as many of you noticed, it's been up and down all afternoon; it seems, finally, to be solidly up. Explore! (Louis Wu 01:26:12 UTC) (permalink)
