Third egg on High Ground
This has come up a whole bunch of times in our forum (and, apparently, even earlier on Bungie.net's forum - thanks, Sain7) - Ibeechu finally got us a recording. From the radio that sits next to the console that has the Morse Code and Cortana's scaryface you can hear a clip from 'Under Cover of Night', from the Original Halo Soundtrack. Nice! (MP3 format, 840k) Explanation for additional sounds are in Ibeechu's forum post. (Louis Wu 20:26:34 UTC) (permalink)
Halo-themed Gaming PC
A-Power Gaming is manufacturing a Halo-themed PC, which comes with Halo 2 Vista and Vista Ultimate, all for CAD $1659. Take a look. Thanks, Engadget. (Louis Wu 16:22:05 UTC) (permalink)
New goodies at the Bungie Store
There are a few new items at the Bungie Store right now - a new Halo 3 pen (thanks, x1zero), and the Halo 3 Beta shirt distributed at the recent Halo 3 press event (in both Charcoal and Brown - thanks, darthbob). (Louis Wu 16:19:48 UTC) (permalink)
Rooster Teeth Guitar
GamerX5000 spent a little time customizing his Guitar Hero II controller - nice work! (Louis Wu 16:14:52 UTC) (permalink)
I think you've played with him.
Mintz is angry at a recent Extra Life comic - he says that they portrayed him without a shirt, when in fact he nearly always wears one while playing. (Louis Wu 14:01:36 UTC) (permalink)
Time to Kill
halwiki.net is converting over to Halo 3 (seems a little early, but...) They're currently building a 'Time to Kill' chart, looking at each of the weapons in the Halo 3 Beta. If you'd like to help, swing by and see what they need! (Louis Wu 13:58:51 UTC) (permalink)
Old Friends, Improved
CinemaBlend took a run at a few new gametypes in the Halo 3 Beta - and loved 'em. Go read why. (Louis Wu 13:56:46 UTC) (permalink)
The good and the bad of progress
PC Authority looked at Halo 2 Vista; they're unhappy with the general trend towards console games, but they still had a few good things to say about H2V. (Louis Wu 13:43:43 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Leather
Another company's getting into the Halo merchandising game - by August 15, you should be able to buy Halo 3-branded leather items made by Enmon Accessories - ranging from a $10 belt to a $300 set of luggage. Hmm... (Louis Wu 13:41:35 UTC) (permalink)
H2V - on (some) shelves now
rapture was able to get his hands on Halo 2 Vista last night - it was sitting on a shelf in his local Circuit City. Check it out. (He was also kind enough to send along a copy of the Halo 2 Vista manual - sometimes these are hard to find down the road, when you just need to know that one little thing. You can download it here (20.3 mb).) (Louis Wu 13:38:47 UTC) (permalink)
