Team BackFire, Week 2
It's Wednesday, so it's time to update Bungie Favorites - it's the second week's worth of content from Team BackFire. Go read about one of their maps... and then check out the rest! (Louis Wu 19:15:55 UTC) (permalink)
GZ interview with Marty O'Donnell

7 on the 7th
In case you've forgotten - today is October 7, which means there's a new 7 on the 7th playlist active right now. If you don't have the 7 on the 7th Vidmaster Achievement... log on today! (As it was last month, the list is comprised of user-built maps, so there's much fun to be had.) Update: There's a breakdown of gametypes, adn maps available, on Bungie.net now.

Wednesday Afternoon at the Movies
Some new movies for you, courtesy of Bungie's Comm Chatter:
- 3-D Halo is a stereoscopic Halo machinima - doesn't really seem to have a plot, except to show you cool angles of Halo stuff flying at you and such. (Needs either 3-D glasses or the ability to unfocus your eyes.)
- Knights of the Goose is a Halo 3 montage mostly covering vehicles.
- Chronicles of Lyle Extra shows off montages from both Lyle and Kyle
Not as strong as some movie collections, but hey, it's mid-week... folks are busy. (Louis Wu 17:54:15 UTC) (permalink)
Ad Lunam
GrimBrother One noticed an article at Kotaku about Moonshot Games, a development company formed by ex-Bungie employees who all have extensive experience on Halo games. Good luck - we'll be keeping an eye on the team, to see what comes out! (Louis Wu 17:41:46 UTC) (permalink)
Wednesday Comic Roundup
We've got a few comics for you today:
- gunluva noticed that this past Sunday's VG Cats had a Halo mention
- vlad3163 pointed out two strips from Digital Unrest - one the day before ODST dropped (snarky), one the following week (not snarky)
- Hawty McBloggy let us know about ODS Steve 43 (The Fallen Prophet) - some surprising things come to light.
That's it - go read! (Louis Wu 17:34:46 UTC) (permalink)
Outside, Looking In
A couple of days ago, we let you know about some pics that Jammerfer [MunKy] took from outside the starting drop pod... that he got to via Firefight. NeoGAF's CrazedArabMan repeated the feat - and though the film didn't show up in his Recent Games list, he was able to record it via capture card. Pretty interesting flythrough of the space Bungie built to start the game!

F99 Wombat - for X-Plane
Mid7night has been working on his F-99 Wombat model for X-Plane - it's now textured, looking a lot more like the version in ODST! Check it out. (Louis Wu 12:48:58 UTC) (permalink)
