Mindless Intentions Episode 2: Grif
RogueDarkJedi let us know that the second episode of the Mindless Intentions comedy series is now online - check his post for multiple viewing options. There's a ton more Halo news... but I'm headed out for about 12 hours. More tonight. (Louis Wu 12:40:52 UTC) (permalink)
3D Halo shots
Kroden (the guy behind some cool 3D Halo shots) stopped by with links to 3D Mythic shots. Check 'em out! (Apparently, there might be video coming at some point.) (Louis Wu 12:39:41 UTC) (permalink)
10 Ways to tell if you're a Noob
imSuck has released a Halo 3 version of '10 Ways to tell if you're a Noob', which had been a big Halo 2 hit - but he doesn't feel like it's actually finished, so he's running a contest for clips. Download (or stream) the 10 minute episode, or read the contest rules. Thanks, finalcutmin. (Louis Wu 12:39:14 UTC) (permalink)
BWU - Mythic Tastiness
The Bungie Weekly Update is full of Mythic Map goodness - a recap of press articles out there (the recent Joystiq flythrough piece is missing, but otherwise it looks pretty complete), along with details of the maps, information about how you might get them early (read this part carefully), and lists of what you will be able to play with in Orbital and Assembly. Awesome stuff! As always, there's a copy in our Weekly Update Archive. (Louis Wu 05:01:30 UTC) (permalink)
Prima's got Halo Wars Covered
We got word from Prima Games about some new content they're developing with respect to Halo Wars. (They're doing the Official Game Guide.) They've got a blog running - the current blog post contains a first look at the game, along with some screens, and there's an RSS feed so you can keep track of new stuff easily. They're also running a contest whereby you can submit your email address to win a shot at a signed Halo 3 art book. Check 'em out! (Louis Wu 05:00:20 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Wars: Fun, but Simplistic and Short
Gamespot has a full review up for Halo Wars - they weren't very impressed (6.5/10). Thanks, ZZoMBiE13. Also, looks like The Escapist reviewed it as well (thanks, Anton P. Nym)... same general feeling. (Louis Wu 04:59:35 UTC) (permalink)

Bungie Blog Browsing
Lots of good stuff on the Bungie Blog today... how about a roundup?
- CrippleFox remembered that the 'Brute Pimp' behavior mentioned in a weekly update last month had been visible in Halo 2... and he uploaded a movie.
- The BTB Insomniacs put together a 'Halo 3 Bloopertage' - 8 and a half minutes of screwups for your enjoyment.
- Bryan Simon continues to record fun voice messages he's getting on Xbox LIVE - The Voicemail Chronicles Volume Four is out.
Movie mania! (Louis Wu 04:56:54 UTC) (permalink)
