Bungie Weekly Update, June 27
Bungie's posted the June 27 Bungie Weekly Update quite a bit earlier than usual (it's been up since before 4 pm, their time) - it contains more exhortations for anticipation of Good Things on both Bungie Day and PAX Weekend, a recap of the Content License Transfer Tool we mentioned yesterday, new overhead screens of Cold Storage, a matchmamking update, and... something else. As usual, you can read it in our Weekly Update Archive, if you choose. (Louis Wu 23:31:06 UTC) (permalink) 
Master Chief Theater 3000 - now with added cast
mrsmiley let us know that he's joined Pyroman in doing Master Chief Theater 3000 - he's voicing the part of the Arbiter in Part 4, now up on YouTube. Go watch! (Louis Wu 23:27:08 UTC) (permalink) 
Halo costumes - coming soon
Costume City is selling Rubie's Master Chief costumes - the Collector's model is listed as in stock, shipping now. (The two cheaper models are 'coming soon'.) These are the same costumes we mentioned back in February; that site is listing a July 31 ship date for these items. With the exception of the high-end model, these are definitely the cheapest way to get into a Master Chief outfit you don't make yourself this year! Thanks, Parabus.

I switch to your side - you let me go! Deal?
Captain Spark was playing Campaign, and started hearing a bunch of new Grunt dialogue. He's not coming out of retirement - but he sent along nearly 50 new snippets for our Halo 3 Dialogue Databank. Some of them are simply priceless. Go listen! (Louis Wu 14:37:08 UTC) (permalink) 
Cry Havoc, and let slip the dogs of war!
It's Friday, so Hawty McBloggy has another edition of Friday Caption Fun for you - this week's image is a great shot, and should lead to some interesting choices! (Louis Wu 14:02:20 UTC) (permalink)

Bungie's Attention to Detail
Omega compared the African coastline, as seen in one of the final cutscenes of Halo 3, to a current-day map, to pinpoint where Forward Unto Dawn came down. You can get a really nice sense of scale of the size of the portal to the Ark. Great work! (Louis Wu 13:08:29 UTC) (permalink)
