Popcorn and a bedpan? Ew.
If you were planning to stay up late on August 2nd in order to grab your copy of the Bungie ViDoc as early as possible, you might want to read a recent tweet from Bungie - it's been pushed back until the 4th. Sounds like the extra 2 days are definitely worth it! (Louis Wu 21:56:02 UTC) (permalink)

Halo-verse Planetary Scale - Revisited
Stephen Loftus has completely overhauled his Halo-verse Planetary Scale article - the newest version contains all the information of the older versions, plus a bunch of new stuff that we now know about (systems described in books/games, etc) - plus some new distance calculations that are pretty impressive! Check it out.

Halo CEA Terminals get some dev love
The team responsible for the new terminals in Halo: Anniversary are making some noise - AngelicLionheart noticed that they've got a Halo piece up on their Artwork page, and one of their animators posted some cool screen grabs at NeoGAF (thanks, Elzarthebam). Looking pretty amazing!

Halo CEA AR - one fan's reimagining
Yesterday, Deepblue stopped by with a proposition - he was unhappy with the Assault Rifle shown in the most recent Halo: Anniversary footage, because he felt that it suffered from the non-inclusion of all the cool changes made to the Reach AR. Over the course of the evening, he posted a number of revisions of his work - and this morning, he posted what he calls a near-final version. It's met with some positive responses from our forum - go take a look!

The Return of CMT
Over at NeoGAF, Awesome Barlow pointed out that the Custom Mapping Team (a Halo CE group) is back in action - you can read about it on their site! Update: Masterz1337, the CMT leader, asked that we change the link to point to the CMT site itself - there's far more information. We've done that. (The Modacity post we used can still be found in Awesome Barlow's post.) (Louis Wu 17:20:21 UTC) (permalink)
Psst - wanna know a secret?
Laird is doing something cool at Halo Fest, coming up next month at PAX. He can't tell you what it is yet - but if you're interested in participating (no, you don't have to get naked, and no, it won't cost you any money), he wants to hear from you! Check his post for details. If you're going to be at PAX, and you're a Halo fan... this is probably something you want to check out.
