Super Size Me.
ZZoMBiE13 continues with his Guest One One Se7en series today - this strip looks at what might have been. If, say, Bungie'd hired Michael Bay. (Louis Wu 14:27:34 UTC) (permalink)

Scoring free copies of GTA4
FiringSquad was at the Halo 3 Beta Press Event in New York in May - and they've gotten around to posting the interview they did with Frank O'Connor while they were there. Nothing earthshattering - but it's a nice read. Thanks, Mariachi. (Louis Wu 13:54:10 UTC) (permalink)
Illusions are teh bomb
BOLL is known for his sanity-bending Flash creations - but this time, the creation is just an image, no Flash in sight... and we need to seriously warn people prone to epileptic seizure not to follow the link. For the rest of you, the image is pretty cool. (Louis Wu 13:30:48 UTC) (permalink)
Brothers of War: Episode 10 Trailer
Time Glitch stopped by our forum to point out a trailer for 'Brothers of War: Episode 10'. Nice voiceover, nice camera shots. Looking forward to the film! (Louis Wu 13:28:18 UTC) (permalink)
Harenil Betatage 2
Harenil released his second Halo 3 montage - nice kills, nice cuts, a fun watch. It's pretty large; 177 mb for a 7 minute flick. Great quality, though. (Louis Wu 13:24:23 UTC) (permalink)
Humpday Challenge: Steaktacular
Bungie played another Humpday Challenge this week; this one was for something REAL - steak dinners. (This was mentioned in last Friday's Bungie Weekly Update - Frankie and Joe Staten had to go 31-50 against Luke and Joe Tung in order to win free dinners.) Did Tung and Smith beat the 20 point spread? You'll have to read 'Steaktacular' to find out! Thanks to Hellhawk for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 13:20:26 UTC) (permalink)

When Spartans Don't Measure Up
Devin Olsen found an article on the Baddest Bottle Openers on the Planet. Many of the respondents in the thread disagreed with the inclusion of the Halo Spartan opener on that list... go read why. (Louis Wu 11:56:34 UTC) (permalink)
The Future of Online Gaming
There's an interesting read over at 1Up.com - it's about the future of online gaming, and it has some pretty cool concepts discussed in it. Halo 3's Lead Designer Jaime Griesemer was one of the developers interviewed for it - and Halo gets mentioned a few times in before-its-time functionality. Thanks, JeSteR 343. Update: Red_Breast noticed that if you continue through the 'Future Of' articles, you'll find that Jaime had some things to say about the future of First Person Shooters, too. Well... First Person games, anyway. (Louis Wu 11:43:42 UTC) (permalink)
