Indestructible
We got word of 'Indestructible', a Halo music vid set to music from Disturbed done by Luck0, of HaloGrid. You can watch it on YouTube, or discuss it on the HaloGrid forum. Really nice camerawork, and great attention to detail - this one really works! Thanks, Jordan Pimentel. (Louis Wu 23:51:46 UTC) (permalink) 
A peek behind the curtain A Bungie artist, who shall remain nameless (beyond his rather vague gamertag), replied to a whole series of questions over at Bungie.net (none of which really had anything to do with art). His answers are pretty interesting... but it's possible that the information he provided was presented in a way that might make things hard for Bungie down the road. (He posted something a bit later that basically reads "okay, I'm going to shut up now" and very soon after that, the thread was locked.) It's interesting stuff - but please try not to throw tidbits back in Bungie's face out of context ("Campane contint cut from Halo Threa says Bungle employ!"), rather read it as interesting backstory you normally don't get a chance to see. Thanks to The J3ster for pointing this thread out! Update: wow, that was fast. The entire thread was deleted. Guess it's just easier not to have that info out there!

TEC Awards 2008 - Bungie's Acceptance Video
We mentioned a few weeks ago that Bungie's sound team won the Creative Achievement in Interactive Entertainment Sound Production from the Mix Foundation - what we didn't notice (until Marty pointed it out) was that they'd posted the awards acceptances online. Here's the clip of Marty and company accepting this TEC Award - check out Noguchi's picture-taking!

A Quickie Guide to Drunken Gaming
GotGame considers Halo 3 to be one of the top 3 games to play while drunk. Having done that, I'd have to say I disagree. Go see what you think.

Thumbslap - arranging games with your friends
We got word of a new service purporting to help you get together with friends to play online (lots of games, though the press release mentioned Halo 3 specifically) - I haven't tried it, but anyone who does, and wants to share their experience, our forum is open!

Vacuum Sealed
Hawty McBloggy found a pretty bizarre-looking female Spartan custom figure on eBay - I don't think she's happy with the EVA helmet.
