Halo Reach Mythbusters: Episode 3
Halo Reach Mythbusters: Episode 3 is now out - did you know you could pass through a one-way barrier the wrong way? Me either. (Louis Wu 16:01:24 UTC) (permalink)
Halo Zero: ODST Tech Demo
HCDPAMF let us know that Dobermann has released a Halo Zero: ODST Tech Demo - you can grab a copy (4.7 mb) from the first post in that thread. Halo Zero is the fanmade sidescroller that's been improved regularly for quite a while... check this out! (Louis Wu 16:00:53 UTC) (permalink)
Reach nominated for HMMA
Halo: Reach has been nominated for "Best Original Score - Video Game" at The Hollywood Music In Media Awards; you can see the rest of the nominees here. Nice! Thanks, Greg O'Connor-Read. (Louis Wu 15:56:23 UTC) (permalink)

It's been a long time coming.
Maybe you thought we forgot about it this year... but Halloween is fast-approaching, and what would Halloween be without a Guilt O' Lantern Contest? (And man, what would HBO be this month if we didn't have at least 77 contests going at all times?) Prizes this year are graciously donated by the Halo Waypoint team - first place will walk away with a Frank O'Connor original Mister Chief painting! (The last time one of these went on the market, it sold for over $400.) Check out past galleries (all linked from the contest page), think about how to make the best pumpkin ever, and get carving!

Devin-Sent, Round 2
Devin says... why wait? The second round of his contest is now live - swing by to put your name into the hat to win a Reach Official Strategy Guide. You've got until Wednesday, so don't dawdle too long! Update: Sorry about the broken form, fixed now. (Louis Wu 00:42:09 UTC) (permalink)
Twistin' By The Pool
The Bungie Weekly Update went live half an hour ago (that timestamp at the top is full of LIEZ) - and it's absolutely worth your time to read. There's a recap of the hot news of the week, of course (Noble Map Pack, Forgetacular contest)... but also boatloads of new info about Playlist changes (both Multiplayer - new forged maps! - AND Firefight - go play some Glacier!), info about when the level cap will be lifted (it's up to us!), and a very cool news tidbit about a Make-a-Wish kid who's getting better. Go read! (It is, of course, available in our Weekly Update Archive, if you'd rather read it there.) (Louis Wu 00:09:26 UTC) (permalink)
