Newsweek's Halo coverage
Halo scoop! The May 29 issue of Newsweek arrived... and here's the Halo review, in all its glory. Would you check out the tires on that baby? Just for the fun of it, here's a bigger version of the actual screenshot. Newsweek Online has most of that issue on their website... the only thing they're missing is the E3 article. :( Pax.

Matt says more for us!
Don't think there's enough good stuff going to the online sites (HBO among them)? Disgruntled because all the juicy bits seem to get to the gaming mags first, and trickle down to the fansites afterwards? Read this post to our forum, and rejoice. (Louis Wu 15:42:54 UTC) (permalink)
Halo SETI 24 hour and 14-day stats posted
The Halo SETI Marines gain another couple of members (Welcome to Dogcow goes Moof and Robbie!), and continue to close the distance to the next team in the Club Rankings. Jjaro Tech edges Banzif for La Crunch Honneur (but averaged almost 4 fewer units per day for the past two weeks). VADER_AU takes the Frogblast award for the day... but Wizard climbed 51 positions over the past two weeks! See all the results on the 24 hour and 14-day stats pages.

Oni E3 Flyer at Oni Central
Oni Central has put up the backside of the E3 flyer we brought you yesterday. No really new screens... but a beautiful layout! Go feast your eyes! (Louis Wu 13:18:41 UTC) (permalink)
E3 Presskit at R.net
Rampancy.net has scanned in the rest of the E3 Press kit. Before now, only the Halo-related pages have made it onto the net... but there is some pretty fun Bungie history stuff in there, as well. Go check it out! (Louis Wu 13:13:29 UTC) (permalink)
New Wallpaper added
Thanks to Vector, who sent in a pair of wallpapers for our Wallpaper page. Vector works at Battleground: Halo. (Louis Wu 11:40:47 UTC) (permalink)
Halo in Newsweek
Kudos to The Maz, who took a digital snap of a page of the latest Newsweek in which Halo was mentioned. The lips are "buzz factor" (out of a possible 5), and the drops of blood are "gore factor" (also out of 5). Listed for Dreamcast... interesting. :) (We'll work on getting a better pic, too.)

Matt says E3 Movie in July
Looks like we're waiting until July for the E3 trailer. In a post on our forum, Matt Soell said that
The trailer will first appear on the cover CD of a major PC gaming magazine. It will be their August issue, which hits the streets mid-July.
It will be available for download shortly after that, at a size of (probably) about 100 MB. The DVD version? Yeah, if they can find a duplicator... Thanks for the info, Matt! (Louis Wu 00:01:36 UTC) (permalink)
