SideQuest Auction Shaping Up Nicely
Running parallel to RTX this weekend is SideQuest; it's a bunch of events that will help conventiongoers meet up with other fans in relaxed non-convention environments. And one of the events that's part of SideQuest is a charity auction to benefit Child's Play. What will you be able to buy there, if you're lucky enough to go? Oh... some cool stuff. (Most recent announcement: a painting of The Meta, done by Luke McKay.) Yet ANOTHER reason I'm sad I won't be there! (Louis Wu 20:05:49 UTC) (permalink)
New Halo Sculpts from a longtime contributor
It's been about a year since we'd heard from him, but Lance Rutledge sent us a bunch of new sculpt pics recently - there's a Halo 3-era Master Chief, and an 'ancient Arbiter' (he looks pretty aged!). Both are about 10 inches tall - very nice work! (If you like what you see, follow the Facebook link at the top of his gallery page; he's got other Halo-related stuff over there!)

ExpertZone Halo 4 Q and A
Apparently, there was a Q&A with 343 over on ExpertZone (again, a site not accessible to the general public); CyReN was kind enough to transcribe it on NeoGAF. Definitely worth a read! (Louis Wu 19:11:03 UTC) (permalink)
Return of the Master Chief
If you're going to San Diego Comic-Con next week, you're among the exclusive few who had access to this gorgeous piece of artwork from 343's Robogabo. I'm jealous! Thanks, Hypertrooper. (Louis Wu 17:43:03 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 4 Multiplayer Details, Game Commentary
TheOddOne noticed an article at Gameranx that summarized a bunch of Halo 4 info - they picked it up from the latest video from MLGBravo. The video summarizes a bunch of the tidbits and notes that Bravo had been wanting to get out there that he just hadn't gotten to (and then does some nice commentary on a game that Neighbor played at E3). Interesting stuff all round! (Louis Wu 17:32:16 UTC) (permalink)
Some new Halo 4 music
wwm0nkey pointed out where Microsoft is hosting the music file that goes with the Expertzone quiz found recently; if you have trouble reading .ogg files, I've converted it to .mp3 for your convenience. It's a great piece, but it's not pure music; there's a low rumble built into it for the website itself.

Tyrant vs Firefight
More from Tyrant - he headed into Reach's Firefight with a friend, Angry Spartan, for a two-part (Part I | Part II) dip into his last Multiplayer mode. Take a look! (Louis Wu 17:08:53 UTC) (permalink)
Halo goodies coming from Sideshow?
Demoncarnotaur was watching a video preview for a new statue from Sideshow Collectibles... and he noticed some interesting sketches showing up in the intro. Check his post on NeoGAF for screenshots, if you don't want to watch yourself!

Halo makes an appearance at AX
NeoGAF's Ken brought attention to some Halo cosplay that showed up at the Anime Expo this year - amazing outfits! Check out David Ngo's website for lots more pics (Halo pics on pages 16, 17, and 50)!

PGCR 121
Robowski sent word that Post Game Carnage Report Episode 121 is online - they cover last week's bulletin (with discussion about Longbow) and the secret 11th Terminal from Halo Anniversary... along with the recounting of a random encounter in Reach Matchmaking. Go listen! (He also wanted to point out that their XBL Voice Message contest is still going; you've got until the end of July to submit your entries!)

Tyrant's HCEA Legendary Walkthrough - The Library
The Tyrant posted his Legendary Guide for Halo Anniversary's Flood-filled fun farm, The Library. He takes it slow (this guide will NOT get you the 'under 30 minutes' achievement), but taking it slow means nothing's left alive to hurt you. Watch this for great tips on beating this level with minimal damage!
