More Fan Fiction - incoming!
Another chapter of 'Halo: A Strange Tale' has come in - Part 3 does some pretty heavy Marathon/Halo tying... check it out in our Fan Fiction section. (While it's fantastic that authors have a universal feedback device in Vector40, it would be nice if others who read the stories dropped off their comments, as well...)

Where did Jonesy go, anyway?
The EggMan Cometh... another (known) easter egg is added to the Halo Easter Eggs page; the Pillar of Autumn bulletin board makes its way into the light. More on the way! (Louis Wu 21:29:13 UTC) (permalink)
Halo on an AIM Buddy icon
Heh - Ben Bayes writes to say that badassbuddy.com has just put up a new AIM Buddy icon showing the Master Chief doin' his thing. Amazing what you can fit in to 50x50 pixels... (Louis Wu 20:28:40 UTC) (permalink)
More Story stuff
The Halo Story page gets another update... more on the Ark of the Covenant, and plenty of speculation about Cortana, the Master Chief, and the Covs... Check out the news! (Louis Wu 12:27:09 UTC) (permalink)
Grunt bars
The Halo Easter Eggs page grows again... this time, it's the Food Nipple Grunt. I'm not 100% sure of the discoverer... so if you think you found this before December 2, please, send in documentation (a forum post,either here or at another Halo forum, would probably be best) and we'll change the source! We've also added some extra media for the first egg - an MP3 version of the song, and a short video showing the exact location of the egg. More coming soon... (Louis Wu 03:59:32 UTC) (permalink)
IGN calls Halo GotY
IGN has posted its Overall Game of the Year - and unfortunately, it's an Insider article. We can't bring you all the commentary and discussion... at least not until it gets moved to the free part of the site. The bottom line, though, is that Halo took the honors, beating out Grand Theft Auto 3 as Game of the Year. Congrats! (Thanks to DT_Spike for the heads-up.) (Louis Wu 03:56:27 UTC) (permalink)
Hey-ho, hey-ho! Halo good for Europe? No!
Bungie's Truth and Reconciliation website has been updated - a new page of screenshots (MASSIVE spoilers for those who haven't played, amazing demo of Bungie's way-cool screenshot-taking technology for those who have), and a new section on the Outtakes page - including a music-less version of the big grunty thirst speech. (If you don't know what that is, check our Easter Eggs page a bit later tonight.) There's also a pretty interesting rant by Joseph Staten, over on the main Bungie.net site. Thanks to Skeletor for the heads-up! (Louis Wu 03:20:52 UTC) (permalink)
