Grim reminds us that lore, lore never changes in Canon Fodder #108
After a length hibernation, Grimbrother One's Canon Fodder column returns, bringing some tantalizing tidbits (and very cool concept art) about a new enemy we'll be facing, and the new armor we'll be wearing. Go read! (fuchsdh 23:36:20 UTC)

Grim gets canonized in MCC Reach, and so does AFoA
Heh, this is a nifty easter egg. In Halo: Reach, many developers got their names assigned to troopers who would follow you around in the levels. The MCC release added a few names, our hometown boy Grimbrother One among them. But CIA391 points out, by extension that makes this little bit from Levi's A Fistful of Arrows possibly legitimate. Head-canon confirmed!
(fuchsdh 23:37:08 UTC)@GrimBrotherOne now. THIS WAS SNEAKY. You snuck in a A Fistful of Arrows ref in your own easter egg in MCC Reach. xD Like it can't of been a mere coincidence that the GRIM in MCC Reach has the same rank as the AFOR GRIM xD Finder @LairdSVF pic.twitter.com/7hhpmCO62t

Grim does a podcast
Only tangentially related, but our own Grimbrother One has started a new podcast, Casual Pros, with Rukari—a fellow game dev who came together through Halo. The first few episodes are up on Youtube to watch. (fuchsdh 01:15:07 UTC)

Twenty Years. That's 10 Generations of Opposums.
It's a little sad that I would have allowed this to go by without a mention had it not been for GrimBrother One (I'm not even sure I remembered what month it is, much less the day)... but two decades ago, on this day, HBO came into being, starting as blam.bungie.org. To everyone who's ever visited, who's participated in our forums or sent us fan creations to share with the world or simply used our news page to keep up on the details about one of the best console shooters ever... Cheers! We're not quite old enough to drink here in the US, yet... but we'll still raise a glass to Halo, and Bungie, and 343. And all of you. (Louis Wu 15:07:20 UTC)
