MSNBC examines coming Halo titles
Hitmonchan is trying to take a break - but failing, a little bit, at staying away from Halo news. He noted early this morning (on GAF) that MSNBC has a video piece on Halo 4 and Halo: Anniversary (filmed in 343's new digs, which happen to be Bungie's old digs). Take a look!

Musical Swag
Folks have been telling our forum (and other forums) about the contents of their swag bags purchased from the Bungie Store a couple of weeks ago - tons and tons of cool stuff. rowboat stopped in last night with something really cool - his bag contained photocopied sheet music from a number of Halo tunes (first page only). He was kind enough to scan them, so the entire community can share in his wealth! (Our forum was thrilled to see the Siege of Madrigal music in the collection... I guess many of them have forgotten that Marty released that one already, more than 9 years ago.) (Louis Wu 14:28:33 UTC) (permalink)
