Kiva?
pete_the_duck was first to notice some gorgeous hi-res versions of those Reach screenshots that have been hitting the net today over at Bungie.net - filenames might provide clues to Reach's campaign! There are currently 18 new shots in the Screenshots section - but they seem to be going up one by one, so there might be more by the time you get to them. (Louis Wu 22:38:56 UTC) (permalink)
Swedish Article now Translated
DJ Lars finished translating the entire Gamereactor.se article we mentioned this morning - swing by his newspost for a far more readable version than Google provides! Update: Looks like a different Gamereactor site has put up its OWN translation! Whee... (Louis Wu 21:44:40 UTC) (permalink)
Tag and Release: Hero
Today's Tag and Release feature at Bungie.net focuses on the Hero logos seen everywhere in Matchmaking last week - lots of great shots! Check 'em out. (Louis Wu 18:51:03 UTC) (permalink)
Halo: Reach Developer Commentary
It's Battle of the Magazines! Game Informer has posted 'Halo: Reach Developer Commentary' - a seven-minute video narrated by Marcus Lehto that gives you an overview of what you can expect from Halo: Reach. (The imagery is simply the screenshots and art assets already seen last night in the Gamereactor article, but the discussion has tons of new details.) (Louis Wu 18:47:02 UTC) (permalink)
Monday Comic Roundup
New comics for you today:
- Grin + Bear It gets more tasteless over at Hawty McBloggy's

Go read. (Louis Wu 16:45:40 UTC) (permalink)
Halo: Reach - Being Definitive
Edge has a new interview online - this one is with Mission Lead Niles Sankey and Campaign Lead Chris Opdahl, and it discusses battle sizes, and Bungie's approach to combat for Reach. Go read it! (Louis Wu 14:50:46 UTC) (permalink)
Robots get you fired.
Not sure how we missed this - but GameInformer put up a second article a few days ago with an in-depth interview with Marty O'Donnell. (It's matched up with the Reach Score video we mentioned last week.) It's a pretty interesting read! Go take a look. (Louis Wu 11:36:50 UTC) (permalink)
Gamereactor Plays Halo: Reach
The Reach content embargo ends today, January 25 - and Sweden got to that date long before the US. Over at NeoGAF, Syringe pointed out coverage by Swedish gaming site Gamereactor - the text is in Swedish (though Google will translate... kind of), but the pictures are understandable in any language. There's concept art, screenshots we've never seen, and environment art (and images from the reporter's trip to Bungie's offices, as well) - go take a look! (A thread on our forum has already picked out some of the juicier tidbits...) Update: DJ Lars has translated the first half of the article - go check out a much more readable version! (Thanks, DJ Lars!) (Louis Wu 11:04:39 UTC) (permalink)
Be a Man
Asian Inferno sent us a link to a video he created in 2006, and uploaded to YouTube before Halo 3 was released - it sets Halo cutscene action to a song from the Mulan soundrack. To my surprise, it holds up reasonably well! However, there's something really disturbing about watching Sgt. Johnson singing with Donny Osmond's voice...

Men of Valor
Hedgemony found some old World War 2 propaganda posters (Australian ones, since that's where he lives), and updated them with Halo content to celebrate Australia Day today. Take a look!
