Vids, late
Missed a bunch of movies this afternoon - Bungie's Comm Chatter is a fine place to find them... Go watch 'em - there'll be more tomorrow! (Louis Wu 23:59:35 UTC) (permalink) 
Where's The Rest Of Your Unit? Stuntmutt's revival of One One Se7en continues, with a strip that does nasty things to a nice option Bungie offers the player. (Louis Wu 15:30:48 UTC) (permalink) 
Reach Cutscene Library - now half-full
The new Reach Cutscene Library has been expanded - scenes from Sword Base, Nightfall, Tip of the Spear, and Long Night of Solace are now available for viewing and download. Again, we'd like to thank Cody Miller for his work here, and again, we'd like to remind you that we'll continue to flesh out the full Library; it's just a matter of bandwidth.

Killing Spree Tex combined her love for Halo with her love for Lady Gaga, and the result is 'Killing Spree'. She rocks. (Louis Wu 14:41:44 UTC) (permalink)

Halo Reach Promotional Emile Stand
tomp1000 has a Reach Promotional Stand, starring Emile, for sale on eBay; it's local pickup in Liverpool, in the UK - but if you're in the area, this is a pretty cool gameroom addition! (Louis Wu 14:38:22 UTC) (permalink) 
A gem from the past
Jane McGonigal is a game designer with a bent towards scholarly study of games - and Scanner Darkly noticed an article she wrote a few years ago called "Why I Love Bees: A Case Study in Collective Intelligence Gaming." It's a great read! (Deep - and maybe a bit more cerebral than your typical gaming article - but great.)

Reach Stats API: Released
After a short delay, the Reach Stats API has been released on Bungie.net - you need a Bungie Pro account to apply for a key (though you won't need to MAINTAIN that acccount for your key to continue working). More info can be found at the Reach Stats API Home, a B.net group. Thanks, Mad Cow. (Louis Wu 14:35:40 UTC) (permalink)
