Halo Fest Tournament
Thanks to ncsuDuncan, at NeoGAF (and Gravemind, right here at HBO) for the heads-up about the Halo Fest Tournament, to be held during PAX. The new Reach maps from Halo Anniversary will be featured - but there will also be a racing tourney, a Forge contest, and a Firefight Score Attack challenge. Are you good enough? (Will you be there?)

Why I love this community
We got a heartwarming note from Daniel 'Tyrant' Morris yesterday. The man's been putting together videos helping people to get through the Halo games at their most difficult settings - but until recently, the recording was actually done by others (by Bungie.net's rendering farm, or by me, for his Mythic guides at HBO). Well, the Halo community rocks, and a kind soul (who chooses to remain anonymous) decided that Tyrant might do better with his own equipment. Tyrant is now the proud owner of a Blackmagic Intensity Shuttle - amazing! Warm fuzzies, all over my body. (Louis Wu 14:37:17 UTC) (permalink)
Bungie Flickr Group
necro2607 decided to start up a Bungie Flickr group, because there wasn't one - it's already got 7 members, and some really amazing pics. Go explore! (Louis Wu 14:35:15 UTC) (permalink)
Signy Todd
We knew that McFarlane Toys was going to be a part of one of the Halo Panels mentioned in the latest Halo Bulletin, but Waypoint confirmed yesterday with a press release that Todd McFarlane himself would be on the panel and available for autographs at the show. You can pencil 'n ink this long-time McFarlane fan super-stoked! Very cool news! (GrimBrother One 13:11:31 UTC) (permalink)
