Into the Great Wide Open
Sean, Phil, and Zeus grabbed four secret campaign Banshees, and went exploring. Watch their exploits on YouTube, then follow their lead and look around yourself! (Clearly, there are spoilers here. If you don't want to know what level this is on, or how to find the Banshees, don't watch the video.) (Louis Wu 18:08:46 UTC) (permalink)
Cowabunga, Dude!
You might find a sniff of nostaligia in this Halo Reach Screenshot of the Day from the Waypoint Blog. Mmmm... smells like pizza. And sewers. (GrimBrother One 17:56:52 UTC) (permalink)
Waypoint Weekly Wrap-Up
bs angel reminds us that if you missed any of Waypoint's net-based content last week, you can find it all on the Waypoint Weekly Wrap-up. Some really great stuff in there, go and see if you caught it all! (GrimBrother One 17:40:10 UTC) (permalink)
Headshot Heard 'Round the World - plus Q and A
Voting on our Headshot Heard 'Round the World contest is amazing - nearly six thousand people have cast almost 18,000 votes, and winners are beginning to emerge. (We're going to let the voting continue for another day or two, so there's still time for some shifting to happen.) While you're waiting for results, you might want to swing by a short Q&A about the FPS Freek Legendarys - we asked our forum for questions, and KontrolFreek answered 'em. As a really nice bonus, they've provided a discount code you can use this week - anything you buy in their store is 10% off! (See the Q&A for the code.) We'll be contacting the winners of the 30 Legendary sets who sent in the earliest valid headshot entries today - please keep an eye on your junk folder, just in case! If we don't get responses in 48 hours, we'll move on to the next person on the list. (Louis Wu 17:29:36 UTC) (permalink)

Easy Money
Don't forget, one of today's Daily Challenges for Halo: Reach is to play a Matchmaking game. A game. Just play. And make sure your Gamertag is linked to Bnet, because you'll net maybe the easiest 3000 cR ever. Thanks Bungie! (GrimBrother One 15:49:00 UTC) (permalink)
Not Quite Noble
I noticed that ZZoMBiE13 had a few fun mods of his Reach soldier up...

Be sure to check 'em all! (Louis Wu 15:40:54 UTC) (permalink)
I think the Lance skull has to be on.
FyreWulff found a pretty funny death yell that you might hear if you use the Cortana Firefight voice - I wish I'd been there for the recording session of this one!

Of Eggs, and Such
A new Reach easter egg surfaced this weekend - we're not going to front-page the egg itself at this point, because it was found in a way that some disapprove of (the triggers for the egg were discovered in the Reach code, rather than in-game), but Bry created a fun video using the result that stands really well on its own. Go watch. (If you're interested in finding the actual egg, it's not even remotely difficult to find information on our forum about it.) And while we're speaking of eggs... INSANEdrive ran across a switch on Nightfall that may or may not lead to something cool. What can YOU find? (Louis Wu 15:17:01 UTC) (permalink)
