Waypoint kicks off SDCC coverage
Harmanius pointed out a Halo Waypoint video kicking off the Halo coverage - includes screenshots of lots of action figure stuff, and an interview with the Square Enix team. Interesting stuff! (Louis Wu 16:31:20 UTC) (permalink) 
Win RAM, Help Marissa
It's not strictly Halo-related... but it's a cause that's near and dear to our hearts, and it's a chance for you to walk away with $250 worth of Crucial RAM. Marissa's Bunny is a blog devoted to raising awareness for a condition called 'Infantile Spasms' - we've posted pictures in the past of Fairfax the Bunny participating in all sorts of Halo-related activities. (Check our news archive for details, if this isn't ringing a bell.) Well, we got word from Marissa's dad Mike - they've got a new giveaway going on, and you could win up to $250 in Crucial RAM, simply by visiting the blog and leaving a note. (Full details are in the 'Giveaway The Third' blog post.) So what are you waiting for? Go enter! (Louis Wu 14:38:52 UTC) (permalink) 
Keeping up, even if you're not in SD
Last night, Dani noticed a page at G4TV - looks like they'll be liveblogging the Halo Reach Press Conference tonight at ComicCon. Be there! (Louis Wu 14:16:21 UTC) (permalink) 
Reach Limited Edition Guide has goodies
Over at NeoGAF, The Crawf pointed out a link for the Halo: Reach Limited Edition Guide. It's a normal guide in a lot of senses - has maps, walkthroughs, Achievement hints... but it also has an "[e]xclusive 96 page developer's diary with concept art and personal commentary from the design team at Bungie studios." Wonga. I think that might sell a few extra of these to hardcore fans... (For folks in the US, Amazon has this for $23.99 (a dollar more than the UK version), available September 3 (almost 2 weeks earlier than the UK version).) (Louis Wu 14:13:44 UTC) (permalink) 
Orbidome - 6 men enter...
ITSMYYARD stopped in with word of Orbidome, a gameshow set in the Halo space. There are already 6 episodes online; teams of contestants take on challenges to gain points, with the intention of winning prizes. (Not sure what the prizes are...) Check it out!

Limited Edition Poster for SDCC Reach Players
Duncan pointed out a BungieTweets Twitpic - it's a poster being given away to folks playing Reach on the ComicCon floor. Looks like Forge is back, baby... and has some new features! (Louis Wu 14:09:14 UTC) (permalink) 
Play Arts Noble Team pics
Harmanius noticed a pair of pics tweeted by HaloWaypoint (one | two) - they're showing off some high-quality figures being created by Square Enix Play Arts. (There's a whole gallery of shots at Figures.com, if you're interested.) They look pretty nice!
