Game Fuel: an invigorating blast of citrus cherry flavor? An interesting article over at IGN, discusses the arrival and subsequent taste-testing of the newly branded Mountain Dew Game Fuel. Thanks Grey Wolf for pointing that cherry flavored article out. (Cybrfrk 22:12:37 UTC) (permalink)
Limited Halo 3 Hoodies in AU
If you're headed to the Australian TechEd 2007 conference in Queensland, Australia this weekend, you've got a shot at one of fifty extremely limited-edition Halo 3 hoodies to be given away there; pictures available at the istartedsomething blog. Mmm... I wish they were actually selling these... (and that's it for me; internet access disappears - NOW.) (Louis Wu 18:51:51 UTC) (permalink)
The Halo 3 Albania Project
This one's pretty odd - The Halo 3 Albania Project is a video documentary of an effort to bring Halo 3 to Albania... or more specifically to a Peace Corps volunteer working in Albania. There's no actual footage up yet, but there are clips from both the volunteer and the filmmaker linked off the documentary page. (PG-rated dialogue warning.) (Louis Wu 18:41:54 UTC) (permalink)
Hawty McBloggy - Month in Review
bs angel has posted a July in Review article on her Hawty McBloggy gamer blog - there are a number of stories we missed. Some are Halo related, some are more generally gamer-related. All are thoughtfully written, and entertaining. Go see what she's got! (Louis Wu 18:37:57 UTC) (permalink)
Big money in the near future
The Dallas Morning News has an article about the marketability of video games... and Halo 2 is playing a large part in that. (Louis Wu 18:35:14 UTC) (permalink)
Needs more Foghorn Whoops! With all the excitement I completely forgot about the Bungie Podcast that was posted on B.Net yesterday afternoon. Luke, Frank, and Brian talk with each other and with Test Lead Jamie Evans about testing, bugs, four-player coop, a REAL studio, take-home tests (the good kind), glitches, and a whole load of smack-talking and general breeze-shooting. Give it a listen over at Bungie.Net, or on the iTunes Store. (mnemesis 07:41:08 UTC) (permalink)
M:D XBLA OSN
This was actually posted a couple of days ago on Gamerscoreblog, but we didn't get around to mentioning it... but there's still time for you to act. Marathon: Durandal for Xbox Live Arcade goes onsale at 9 am GMT on Wednesday (that's today, and it's actually less than two hours from now). $10 buys you a window into Bungie's past! Gogogo...

Weather The Onslaught In honor of today's release of Marathon: Durandal, Stuntmutt checks in with a very special One One Se7en. Somewhere in the heavens... ...they are groaning. (mnemesis 07:03:34 UTC) (permalink)
1up Hits the Road with John 1up has a preview of the third mission in Halo 3 over at their site, for those that are interested in that sort of thing. ;-) (Thanks, Fonz)
I won't mention what the title of the third mission is, but for those that are trying to remain spoiler-free, browsing the news or forums at a Halo fansite (like here, for instance) might not be your wisest choice. We've still got two months to go, and a lot of information is going to be flying around here. I'm just sayin'... (mnemesis 05:31:13 UTC) (permalink)
Interviews in Machinima #9 - Major.Dump GamerTV has put up an interview with Richard Boisvert, aka Major.Dump, discussing how he got into animation, and what he's got in store for the future. Check it out, and thanks to trigger119 for the heads-up. (mnemesis 05:24:12 UTC) (permalink)
RvB Transitional Episodes The first of the Red vs. Blue transition episodes we mentioned the other day is available over at GameStop, among other places. Oh, I hope the new Needler works like that. Thanks Nitro288. (mnemesis 05:14:31 UTC) (permalink)
