How Bungie Plays
GamesRadar sat down with Cam 'Cunbelin' Pinard and Jason 'BrownV' Sussman - watched them play, asked them about their strategies and what they like. Fun read! Thanks, Decommissioner. (Louis Wu 19:53:46 UTC) (permalink)
Orange and Purple - aren't Scouts supposed to blend in?

Hints of Bungie's next Halo title?
Solidly in the 'rumor' category, 1UP.com has some gossip it's pushing from Quartermann's Rumor Mill:
[W]e've heard rumblings that the first one will be a Halo spin-off due in late 2009. Our spies tell us to expect a third-person action/adventure shooter hybrid that takes place before the original Halo, chronicling early skirmishes between the ODST troops and the Covenant. This may or may not be the oft-mentioned "Peter Jackson Halo Project" -- though apparently Microsoft is hiring a seperate team for that -- but WETA is definitely involved in some capacity. Look for a massive reveal around the time Gears of War 2 ships this fall...
Bungie HAS been really busy of late - but this is the first I've heard of a "third-person action/adventure shooter hybrid". Don't get all excited yet - it may turn out to be true, or it may turn out to be a bit of undigested beef. (I found this in my Google Alerts mailbox, but I just checked the forum, and it looks like Red_Breast started a thread about it about an hour ago.) (Louis Wu 14:03:49 UTC) (permalink)
It's a water pump. Definitely.
Hawty McBloggy has returned to her Rorschach Inkblot tests, based on heatmaps of multiplayer killzones - today's looks at the death on Blackout. You can also see answers from Foundry, the last map she covered (back in February). Go tell her what you see! (Louis Wu 10:30:26 UTC) (permalink)

Halo: Uprising - Issue 4 Cover Art Revealed
mcdizzell noticed that Marvel's posted the cover art (or SOME cover art) for the fourth Halo comic. I said I wouldn't post any more news about the series until the next issue was actually released - but it's pretty artwork. Go look.
