This Spartan Life Episode 7
An old friend has returned! This Spartan Life has been quiet for a bit (the last episode came out just under a year ago) - but they're back with Episode 7! Today's interview is with Tiffiniy Cheng, co-founder of Fight for the Future, and one of the organizers of the January internet blackout to protest SOPA and PIPA. It's a fascinating discussion - but Fyb3roptik is not participating, because he's out hunting Lt. Minderbinder (and trying to stay alive). A little something for everyone! Go watch. It's not often that Halo machinima is combined with sophisticated political discussion. (Tom Van Sinden 19:50:01 UTC) (permalink)

Play Games for Science - Part II
Back in February, we mentioned a survey that Goosechecka had created to help with her doctoral dissertation - she collected over 300 responses and is now ready for Phase II! If you participated in the first part, she's hoping you can stop by for a follow-up survey - once again, there's a chance to win one of four $60 Amazon.com gift cards! Go help science - again!

1UP's Community Halo 4 Preview Debate
Eep - missed a tag-team debate between 1UP's Jose Otero and 1UP community member Benjamin Tate. Part One focused on the campaign, weapons, and Armor Abilities, and was released early this week. Part Two came out yesterday, and looks at the Infinity and Spartan Ops, along with the visuals of the game. Interesting discussion! (Tom Van Sinden 17:02:11 UTC) (permalink)

Mail Sack 14
Bungie posted a new Mail Sack last night. As always, it's a great read - both for the humor and the insight into the minds of the employees who participate. The only bit of Halo-related content is a plea to stop demanding clues about unfound Halo easter eggs. (::sadface::) Go read!
