SpartanFinder - coming soon
gunn3r11 sent word that The Spartan Force is looking to test an online service that "will revolutionize gaming and matchmaking". (A quick read of the product announcement suggests it's a friend finder... not sure if that's going to revolutionize anything, but it's probably convenient.) They're looking for testers - all you need to do is join their community. (The actual product will be available "later this year" - it's unclear exactly what that means.) Swing by and read the details for yourself! (Tom Van Sinden 20:31:03 UTC) (permalink)
Election Day
Sure To Be Ban'D gets political with Halo 4 - makes you wonder if 343 is full of conservatives! Thanks, Trunks. (Tom Van Sinden 18:46:40 UTC) (permalink)

Some amazing figures coming from ThreeA
ThreeA is releasing some very high-quality Halo figures - starting with Carter. Kotaku's got the teaser image (that wasn't actually supposed to be released yet). Thanks, Hypertrooper.

The reasoning... needs work.
Over at NeoGAF, PsychoRaven pointed out a new episode of ScrewAttack that lists their Top 10 Franchises that Need to Die. A certain sci-fi shooter is at the head of the list. GAF in general wasn't particularly pleased with the list in general... neither was our forum, when The Delanator highlighted it. Mostly, people didn't like the REASONS certain games made the list. Go decide for yourself! (Tom Van Sinden 15:21:39 UTC) (permalink)
The First Date
Just Logan came by yesterday to encourage people to watch The First Date, the latest machinima from Hazardous Entertainment. Not what I expected... take a look. (Tom Van Sinden 15:09:17 UTC) (permalink)
The World Of Halo 4
Game Informer continues their Halo 4 coverage - yesterday's offering was a look at the campaign. There's not a lot of info there that hasn't already been released (well, it might be new if you haven't read their print article) - but the concept art that goes along with the text is truly beautiful. Go read! (Unless, of course, you're trying to stay blind for the game's release. For folks who don't want to know anything about what they'll be facing - skip this one.) Thanks, nillapuddin.
