Halo Wars - the Last Ensemble Product
Whoa. Looks like Ensemble is closing its doors... Halo Wars will be finished (apparently), but everyone else working for the company has been laid off today. More details (sort of) at ShackNews. (Louis Wu 21:31:17 UTC) (permalink) 
You trying to stiff me, Chief?
It's been a little while, but Captain Spark is back at it with dialogue recording; we've got 43 new clips available for you in the Halo 3 Dialogue Databank. Funny stuff in there! (Louis Wu 16:14:57 UTC) (permalink) 
Halo Wars Action Figures - Coming Soon
It ain't a Halo product until there are action figures! Apparently, according to this press release, McFarlane will be releasing small (2.5 inch) Halo Wars figures, in 3-packs, starting in the spring. They'll retail for $10 per pack. (Louis Wu 14:00:09 UTC) (permalink) 
Top 10 Weirdest Halo 3 Screenshots
Hawty McBloggy put up a compilation of the Top 10 Weirdest Halo 3 Screenshots - some whacky stuff in there! (I love the first one.) (Louis Wu 13:41:39 UTC) (permalink) 
7,777,777,777
Avateur pointed out that sometime last night, the Halo community passed the 7,777,777,777 point in Campaign Kills. (We came very close to 7 billion by 7/7/08 - it took two more months to nail the next 10%.) Nice job! (Louis Wu 13:39:53 UTC) (permalink) 
Halo Wars Reveal becomes clearer
When we mentioned the most recent Monthly Update from the Halo Wars team, we pointed out that the scrambled pics they included would probably clear up over time, as they did the last time this style was used. A few days ago, a thread opened on the Halo Wars forum to discuss the changes (which have indeed started). Yesterday, SteelersX07 brought the news to our forum. (Apparently, there's an older thread on a Bungie.net group forum, but it's closed to non-members.) So far, it looks like the beginnings of an air field... (Louis Wu 13:30:50 UTC) (permalink) 
Floodgate - from outside
BlueNinja stopped by yesterday with news of new panoramas - great shots from outside Floodgate! (Louis Wu 13:13:56 UTC) (permalink) 
RvB Reconstruction Chap 13 now up
Red vs Blue: Reconstruction Chapter 13 was posted late last night - the crew does their best (which, um, isn't very good) to obtain a vehicle, or two, to use in a base assault. It goes about as well as can be expected. Production values are as high as ever (there's one effect I'm still having difficulty figuring out how it works). Go watch!
