Happy Easter, Marty.
So, yesterday's news of a brand-new egg in Halo 3 got me thinking... what if there are more? Well, there are. Lots of people know about the Seige of Madrigal egg at the top of the structure at the end of the Covenant level... but did you know that there's ANOTHER egg on the OTHER side of that same structure? (Same location, but on the right, instead of the left.) This one wasn't found before now, it seems, because there is a time factor in the trigger; if you stand in the right location, you can hear a number of computer-generated voice clips, but they don't start for two or three minutes after you arrive (and each additional one takes ANOTHER two or three minutes). I've made a short movie showing the location of the trigger (and the various clips you can hear) - grab it in WMP9 (14 mb) or QuickTime (11 mb) formats. Judging from the content of the clips, this one looks to be aimed at Marty O'Donnell... by the audio crew. Hi, Marty! (Louis Wu 17:26:52 UTC) (permalink)

ESPN/MLG's Halo 3 Content
ESPN's Game Up in May features the third episode of MLG's Halo 3 Top 10 - 10 amazing clips from Halo 3 multiplayer. It also contains a new edition of 'Tale of the Tape', in which downloadable content from Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4 are compared (Halo 3 gets the nod from ESPN for all three judging categories - Fit, New Gear, Freshness - a clean sweep.) You can watch the entire Game Up episode at ESPN.com, or you can watch just the Halo 3 Top Ten #3 at Hawty McBloggy's place (check out the new skin while you're there!).
