Marty Waxes Poetic (or maybe just his back)
Most of us seem to have missed a short little interview that Major Nelson conducted with Marty O'Donnell outside Grauman's Chinese Theater on Tuesday; Marty discussed the musical choices they made, and why the trailer felt as it did. An interesting little piece - and visual evidence that the shirt that Kotaku mentioned a couple of days ago was, indeed, a Halo 3 shirt. You can watch it in both high- and low-res streaming versions from this page on Xbox.com (scroll down to 'Halo Audio Director') - and for those of you who simply can't deal with .asx files, you can grab a 4 mb QuickTime version from us. Thanks to jman571 for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 04:50:30 UTC) (permalink)
Organized Halo 3 Content at R.net
Over at Rampancy.net, Narcogen has lost no time organizing the Halo 3 content out at this point; you'll find a new Halo 3 Movies page, containing local mirrors of the announcement trailer, a Halo 3 Articles page, containing local mirrors for Bungie's Halo 3 comments, and a Halo 3 Image Gallery, which contains both official screenshots and some interesting screengrabs that have been intriguing forumgoers everywhere for the last couple of days. Go look! (Louis Wu 04:42:59 UTC) (permalink)
PvP Stats Fixer
A few quick news posts before I sign off (what the HECK am I doing up less than three hours before I need to leave for the airport?)... PEZ has put together a small script that works in Firefox (with the help of Greasemonkey, a Firefox extension) that fixes the bug that keeps most people from viewing the Player vs Player stats on Bungie.net these days. Just tested it - works pretty nicely! (Louis Wu 04:39:44 UTC) (permalink)
Halo: Now Read The Book
Today's USA Today (May 10) has a 2-page spread on the Halo Graphic Novel; some of the text (but none of the pictures) can be found online on the USA Today website. Anyone who wanted to scan this... we'd be happy to host. :) (Louis Wu 00:01:20 UTC) (permalink)
