Halo Wars - now working on cutscenes
Interesting. Mike Smith pointed out a new update on the Halo Wars forum - the crew has been working on motion capture for cutscenes. (Personally, I'd rather be seeing where the GAME ITSELF was going right now, rather than the interstitial movies - but some update is better than no update.) Hmm... upon rereading, it's possible that the mocap will be used for more than just cutscenes... I guess we need to wait and see. (Louis Wu 17:50:01 UTC) (permalink)
Ultra-secret super duper interview
TheDonWan pointed out LoadingReality.com - a podcast focused on gaming in general. Episode 4 contains a sizeable interview with Bungie's KP - lots of 'favorite' questions, user-submitted questions, Bungie questions, all mixed in with general abuse of KP... good stuff. Well over an hour, 43 mb. KP shows up about 15 minutes in.

RoP Update
Funkmon sent us an update about the Rockets on Prisoner Awards; he took over from That Weasel, and plans to have a version out for Fall 2007 - if you have suggestions for how this should work, let him know over at Halo: Portable! (The plan now is to expand the awards to other Halo media, like music and podcasts.) (Louis Wu 15:34:27 UTC) (permalink)
Cool shots
Dojorkan put up a bunch of new, large hudless shots on our forum - some gorgeous stuff! Check 'em out. (Louis Wu 15:24:40 UTC) (permalink)
New vids up at Halo: Portable
Funkmon wrote to point out two new portable-formatted vids at Halo: Portable - Jamie98s' We Become Silhouettes, and the newly-posted Legend 3 (whose provenance is still being debated) are now up. Go grab 'em for your PSP/iPod/Zune! (Wait... people actually OWN Zunes?) (Louis Wu 14:42:13 UTC) (permalink)
Fresh Meat
Evilcam is a new moderator at Bungie.net - and he's also the newest victim of KP's IM-style interviews; go read about his interaction with the Halo community over at Bungie.net. (Thanks to Schedonnardus for letting us know.) (Louis Wu 14:36:39 UTC) (permalink)
Severance Package
Mister Froggy wrote to point out that Halo, Articulated #9 is online - the headless Barbie storyline continues. After a fashion. (Louis Wu 13:50:55 UTC) (permalink)
On horseback. In a hurricane.
Wow - it's been a while since our last mention of Tied the Leader... but boy howdy is there a lot of new content there. (No, I don't use that expression very often. No, I didn't get it from the TTL crowd. It just seemed appropriate.) Interviews (2), Clan Profiles (2), link roundups for folks who missed older material (1) and thought-provoking articles of relevance to Halo players (2) - check out XerxdeeJ's forum post for summaries and links.
