Bungie Weekly Update: Reviewtastic
The Bungie Weekly Update is online - earlier than usual? Maybe. It's a discussion of the reviewing that lots of European journalists have been doing of the full game this week - and the same process that US journalists will be going through soon. And the first Mister Chief in a really, really long time. Go read - either at Bungie.net, or in our Weekly Update Archive. (Louis Wu 23:44:07 UTC)

Irrelephant.
Yesterday's Bungie Podcast makes you wonder if today's One One Se7en shouldn't be titled... oh, never mind. I'm not good enough at puns to come up with a word that sounds like 'Behemoth' but means 'unimportant'. Just go read the flippin' joke. (Louis Wu 14:54:33 UTC)

It's Back, Baby!
It's been a really long time since we've done a 7 on the 7th contest - but then, we're schwagwhores, and we only do these when someone gives us stuff we can give away. This time, the sugar daddies are over at Freeverse - they've got a bunch of copies of Marathon: Durandal they want to spread around, and all you gotta do to get one is draw a silly picture. (Trust me - this contest is NOT about artistic proficiency.) Go read the full rules on the 7 on the 7th page. (Louis Wu 14:35:26 UTC)

Win a Halo 3 360, if you're down under
Wow. If you live in Australia or New Zealand, you need to check this out. Pidgeo is giving away a Halo 3 Special Edition Xbox 360, plus a Halo 3 poster, signed by Frankie and Lars Bakken - all you need to do to win is send your best Halo or Halo 2 gameplay story (100 words or less) to him before September 15. Go read more details at his site. I found this on the Delicate Genius blog. (Louis Wu 12:06:48 UTC)

Wired Cornucopia
Over at Wired.com, there's an amazing collection of new content - the cover article from the most recent issue is online, along with a whole bunch of extras. A few new unwatermarked screens are there (we've seen these in magazines, but not yet in digital format), there's a video primer to get you ready for Halo 3, and there's a hyperlinked image of the cover, with all of the visible tags explained. The cover article is a fascinating look at the testing process Bungie developed to make Halo 3 the best game it could be. Go read! (Louis Wu 12:53:27 UTC)

Bungie - Saving Microsoft's Bacon
At the New York Times, there's an article about the Xbox 360's quality woes... and a theory about why people don't give up on a product that fails so often. "There's nothing in the house that breaks down as much," says one of the consumers quoated in the article. What makes someone satisfied with a product with such a poor perceived quality record? Why, Halo 3, of course. Go read. (Louis Wu 18:23:11 UTC)

Trying and failing to be edgy and mature
The Bungie Weekly Update is online - and man, it's a tasty one. There are seven panels from the upcoming first Halo: Uprising comic (man, does it look nice), and there
are a whole bunch of questions taken off our forum last night, answered to a greater or lesser degree. Some of the things that jumped out at me: music is "99% finished" and in the game, the Arbiter will NOT be invulnerable when he's playing with you, and Grunts reproduce frantically. Go read more! (If you read it in our Weekly Update Archive, the facing pages are already nicely stitched together for you, so that when you click on the smaller version, you'll get more than half of the larger version.)

Go ahead. Wash your Bubble Shield with Flame.
Wow. Very interesting article about new flame-related weapons in Halo 3 - the flamethrower is IN, and so is the Firebomb! Go read at IGN. Thanks, TheSneak. (The 3D view is great!) Update: Nice call by Flashman - I honestly hadn't noticed the significance of the name. (Louis Wu 23:20:06 UTC)

Mountain Dew Game Fuel Sweepstakes
And the Halo-branded marketing rolls on. Over at Xbox.com, you'll find a new Halo sweepstakes discussed; it doesn't kick off until September 1, but there's lots of goodies to win. Go read about it! Thanks, KP. (I found it mildly amusing that the Xbox.com page calls it the 'Mountain Dew Game Fuel Sweepstakes', whereas the actual sweepstakes website calls it the 'Halo 3 Slurpee Sweeps'. I'm gonna hold out for the Halo 3 Lard on a Stick Sweeps, myself.) (Louis Wu 05:22:45 UTC)

Bungie Interview on European Sites
A bunch of European Xbox sites had the chance to ask questions of Frankie and Sketch in Amsterdam last week; the interview went live today. Gamersyde was first out of the gate (thanks, Andy C) but it's on other sites, as well - for example, Marc from Halo Universe points out a copy on Xbox Aktuell. The interview itself is in English, though the sites hosting it might not be. Go read! (Louis Wu 13:15:42 UTC)

Four Player Online Coop Confirmed for Halo 3
Luke Smith confirmed (over on the NeoGAF boards) that online coop for Halo 3 is in, and supports four players. I'd give that a double W00t! and a couple of Wongas! to boot! Thanks, Phatcorns.Update: Luke's also penned a new B.Net article detailing the new hotness that coop is to become. Go read, and learn about a couple of new characters in our Halo universe! (Dang, I better blow the dust off of the ol' Story Page and start updating...) (mnemesis 18:53:47 UTC)

New RvB series coming soon
Over at Xbox.com, there's a promo page explaining the next project coming from the Rooster Teeth crew. It's a commercial series; looks to be available for (probably paid) download from a variety of retail websites, starting on Tuesday. It's a five-episode special series of Red vs Blue, helping the transfer from Halo 2 to Halo 3. Go read the details! (I think that's it from me - the connection is gone.) (Louis Wu 18:35:25 UTC)

He laughed so hard, snot came out of his nose.
Frankie has posted an interesting discussion with Curtis Creamer, Bungie's Design Producer, over at Bungie.net - how Curtis got involved with Bungie, what he does every day, how Halo 3 is coming along. (No, Frankie didn't let him say anything REALLY juicy in that regard.) It's a great way to meet the team - go read! Thanks, MasterChief2829. (Louis Wu 23:10:27 UTC)
