There's a new article on Bungie.net interviewing Red vs. Blue's Burnie Burns. The interview covers the new season, some info on their studios and an exclusive clip from the Season 4 DVD. Congratulations go to the mighty KP on the first post on the forums and the first news post. (KP 23:27:30 UTC) (permalink)

When are you TOO successful?
AJ Ardovino pointed out an article entitled 'The End For All', over at Dead Man's Hand - it asks the question "does Halo's popularity impact the success rate of other games?" Are other XBL games failing because too many people are playing Halo instead of exploring what else is out there? You could also ask "is anyone going to create an online game that makes people want to play it?", I suppose... Go read. (Louis Wu 21:14:30 UTC) (permalink)
CMT Progress
darthbob pointed out a thread on the Gearbox Forums with some pretty intriguing pictures - a Halo CE mod with lots of tweaks to emulate eyecandy in the Halo 3 trailer. Check it out! (Louis Wu 18:27:14 UTC) (permalink)
Helpful Hints.
Today's One One Se7en was guest-written by c0ld vengeance, and looks at one of the more entertaining side effects of Halo 2's helpful user interface. (Entertaining, that is, if you're not the person involved.) (Louis Wu 17:59:04 UTC) (permalink)
Popularity, it's a funny thing
Heh... bizarre. Thomas Gonzalez used Google's Trend Labs to compare search interest in Halo vs George Bush. I'm not sure what it says about us, but in every region of the world, in every city tracked, in every language... more people search for Halo info than for George Bush info. Update: Taugosz pointed out that Bush searching actually edged out Halo searching in one city - Washington, DC. I suppose that's a good thing. (Louis Wu 14:09:29 UTC) (permalink)

MS Corporate Guy talks about the future
Shane Kim sat down with IGN to talk about E3 and what's coming down the road. Halo got mentioned a lot - there's nothing really hard there, but there's discussion of Halo 3 (and the platforms it might be available on), the Halo movie, a rumored Halo MMO, the possibility of a Halo-based Xbox Live Arcade game... thanks, HaloPlanet.

Surfing in Barbados
Heh - I'm not one to talk, but I have to snicker a bit that Stuntmutt took time out from his Caribbean honeymoon to update his blog; some One One Se7en musings on marriage and traveling. (No, this doesn't count as today's One One Se7en; that's coming a bit later.) (Louis Wu 12:52:51 UTC) (permalink)
