Get Your Salt Out
There's an article over at PlayThree.net which is reporting a rumor that Halo 3 will support true 1080p, as opposed to upscaled which is what most were expecting. According to the article, Xbox exec Shane Kim believes that 1080p is becoming increasingly important which has resulted in pressure on Bungie to make true 1080p happen. The article goes on to state that Bungie currently has a build of Halo 3 running internally at 1080p and 60FPS. They then go even further into their stash as they predict the existence and a rough launch period for Halo 4. Remember not to take anything too seriously unless you hear it from the horse's mouth.

Geekdad Visits Bungie
Wired's Geekdad blog has some really interesting stuff for Halo fans this morning. Geekdad was lucky enough to spend a day at Bungie Studios recording dialogue for Halo 3 and goes into a fair amount of detail describing the process. There's a lot of cool content there, including a live performance of the Halo 3 Fanfare by The O'Donnell. Geekdad even posted pages of his mission dialogue... from which our forumers are beginning to derive quite a bit of plot. Thanks to SpecsOps_Assault for the linkage.
