The Art of Deception
Looks like Eisen Feuer has updated his Art of War strategy series at TalkXbox.com - The Art of Deception is a great read. It'll help you fool your enemies into dying before you do. There's a hefty writeup, complete with pictures, plus a video, demonstrating the techniques, in two formats. Go read and watch! Thanks to Thomas for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 06:42:56 UTC)

Riding the Bullet (blocking) Train
Continuing their series of one map preview per week, Bungie has put up an in-depth look at Terminal - its strengths, its weaknesses, the best Starbucks kiosks in the station. Wait - that's not right. But the rest of it is. Go read! Very cool graphics - screenshots, closeups on scenery items, even a map. (Louis Wu 22:07:09 UTC)

Master Hot Stepper
Jamie Noguchi's brother works for Bungie. Jamie writes a comic called Angry Zen Master. Jamie's latest strip takes a calculated, insider look at Bungie's latest doings - go read. And if you're disappointed that the secret's out... blame Jamie's brother Mat. That guy just can't keep his mouth shut. (Thanks, mnemesis.) (Louis Wu 18:00:02 UTC)

A sigh of relief
Time for bed, here... but before I go, something that's been in the works for quite some time. The Fan Fiction section has been moved - it's now hosted on a far more robust connection, and the code has all been rewritten in php. Should look (mostly) the same - well, the huge page listing is gone at the top of the main page, and some of the search functions are a little more interesting - but the downtime should stop happening. There's no guarantees I got everything right, so if you run into a problem, please let me know. Otherwise, though, go read the eight new stories posted this evening. (Louis Wu 03:12:57 UTC)

Wouldn't it be nice?
A few days ago, Agonizing_Gas wrote up a satirical post on the 2old2play forums about a 13-year-old who realized his attitude on XBL was influencing his life - yesterday, stosh posted a sanitized version on Bungie.net. We were gonna pass on this... but it was noticed both in our forum (though, scarily, the poster believed it might be a true story), and via email by a bunch of people - so if you haven't seen it, go read. It's pretty funny. (Louis Wu 16:05:08 UTC)

The Legacy of Halo Nationals
Major League Gaming has posted an info page for MLG Philadelphia, coming up in late July. It includes a look back at the Pennsylvania tourney that started it all for some of the staff - an interesting reminiscence of a much less professional time. Go read! Thanks, 3Suns. (Louis Wu 09:15:37 UTC)

Game On
XerxdeeJ posted a note about updates on Tied The Leader, his Halo-related blog. I swung by - and there are quite a number. Profiled XBL personalities, women gamers who can kick his butt, silly things you hear on XBL, a disturbing Halo 2 clan, and how multiplayer gaming has evolved over the years are just a few of the new bits.

...and the salsa was to die for.
The highlight of E3 this year for many of us was actually not part of E3 - it was the party at Deanero's house on Friday night. Originally dubbed 'Plasma Fiesta', its name seems to have morphed to 'D3' - Dean's Desserts and Deathmatch. There's a great writeup of the party, complete with pictures and lessons that can be learned for your own lanfests, over at Bungie.net - and never let it be said that SketchFactor doesn't take every opportunity possible to rub in the fact that Frankie missed the salsa at this year's event.

Restoring that IROC
Bungie's Weekly What's Update was posted last night (as usual) - there's information about cheating (including a clarification about the difference between Bungie banning folks and Xbox Live banning folks, and a new email address for reporting cheaters), plus some other random stuff - it's been a bit of a slow week. Go read it! (Louis Wu 10:04:08 UTC)

Almost Parcheesi
It's not a Top News Story, for some reason... but the Halo Humpday Challenge has now been written up by Frankie. Polite and genteel - he's a gracious winner. (I'm not sure what that 'continued on page 2...' thing is at the bottom of the second game...) Go read. (As a side note to SketchFactor: when your internet and cable TV both go out, there's this thing called 'outside' - you can go there and find stuff to do. It's cool.) (Louis Wu 19:35:52 UTC)

Speculation - it's not just for breakfast anymore!
Jillybean tosses around popular sci-fi references with abandon as she plucks a few morsels from the cornucopious Halo Story mailbag. (Yes, I know that's not a word.) The focus today seems to be Forerunner. Go read! (Louis Wu 17:37:25 UTC)

Bach Backpedals on Release Date Claims
Last week, we mentioned a quote from Bill Gates that suggested that Halo 3 might be released in the same timeframe as the Playstation 3. We warned, as usual, that it ain't official until Bungie SAYS it's official... but it IS hard to contradict the head honcho. Nevertheless, there WAS some backpedaling by Robbie Bach, Chief Xbox Officer - in today's Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Bach is quoted as saying:
We haven't announced anything on what Bungie is doing or where we're going with the future of the 'Halo' franchise. With all respect to Bill, I don't run Bungie's studio, and neither does he.
Go read the article for even more vagueness. Thanks to Marc Friedrichs of Halo Universe for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 09:24:13 UTC)
