Bulletinizing Halo development, one week at a time
This week's Halo Bulletin went up earlier this afternoon at Halo Waypoint - a little bit later than usual. (It didn't make it into our Halo Bulletin Archive until just now - still more delay. Sorry!) Coverage of Greg Bear's recent book tour, a nice Super Jackpot available in Matchmaking, some behind-teh-scenes stuff from the Halo 4 team, and fan questions make up the bulk of the content. Go read! Thanks, JDQuackers. (Louis Wu 22:46:53 UTC) (permalink)
BTF #5 : Are We BETA Off Without It?
Forward Unto Dawn has a new piece - this one returns to the Beyond the Frontline opinion series, and focuses on an open beta test for Halo 4 - or more specifically, whether Halo 4 NEEDS an open beta. Interesting read! Thanks, Dani. (Louis Wu 17:36:03 UTC) (permalink)
Halo: Faith - Sidelined?
thebruce0 stopped in with a link to a (currently live) podcast from Rex Sikes, on blogtalkradio, containing an interview with Jared Pelletier, the driver behind the Halo: Faith movie. I can't figure out how to hear the relevant portion at the moment (will probably be easier once the live part is over), but according to thebruce0, Pelletier has said that the project no longer has a potential release, apparently because of an IP conflict. Bummer! (Louis Wu 17:18:30 UTC) (permalink)

PGCR Ep 100
Robowski let us know that the 100th episode of the Post Game Carnage Report is now online - plenty of Halo discussion, mostly mitigated by alcohol. Go listen! (Louis Wu 15:25:56 UTC) (permalink)
Blowing Up to Win
Achievement HORSE #57 (AchievementHunter.com | YouTube) marks the return of Geoff - will Jack's 3 extra months of practice keep him on top? Watch to find out! hezekiah's informational forum post used up what seems to be a lifetime supply of horse puns, so the next few announcement posts will probably read "Achievement HORSE #[some_number_here] live".

Kampy and BesT MaN Anniversary Montage
This was on Halo Waypoint on Monday, but I missed it until thee henery mentioned it at NeoGAF - Kampy and BesT MaN have released an Anniversary dualtage, with some pretty slick multikills. Go watch! (Louis Wu 15:22:50 UTC) (permalink)

The Future of Cortana's Face?
Lord Friendship stopped in with some interesting information from reddit - looks like a woman is claiming to be the face of Cortana for Halo 4. No word from 343 on whether her claims have merit.

Firefight Survival
RC Master continues to hone his Firefight Survival gametype - check the post for details and download links! Doesn't look like Waypoint plans on making too many changes to the Firefight playlists online, so this might be your best chance for some variety. (Louis Wu 15:13:15 UTC) (permalink)
