Louis Screws Up
OMG did our own Louis Wu screw up? Both noddy99 and Chris think so. They point out that this CD Mag screen is not a retouched version (according to Louis) of this shot since that comes from a Gamestar shot. There are also notable differences between the two jeep pics even if the general look appears the same. On behalf of the staff at HBO I humbly apologize to CD Mag, Bungie and HBO readers for this error. (Ding 07:12:58 UTC)

Fun with Photoshop
Thanks to Chris, who sent in a link to one of the CD Mag images... at first glance, it looks like a new screen, but upon closer examination, it appears that CD Mag just did a bit of background editing. (This is from the article that turned out earlier today to be recycled from last July.)Stay tuned, though... word from CD Mag was that they're working on some pretty good stuff, and put this up so there'd be something online. We'll keep you posted. (Louis Wu 00:35:34 UTC)

Gaming sites behind the times
For some reason, several big gaming sites (VoodooExtreme, Shugashack, Blue's News, probably others)are reporting the Gamecenter screens posted a couple of weeks ago as new, now. They're not new. They were posted on April 29. Just wanted to clear that up. Pax. (Crux Fidelis 00:56:13 UTC)

E3 report on Halo from IMG
Inside Mac Games have an E3 report on Halo. Here's an interesting piece:
Doug Zartman cleared up a few issues for us - when it comes to vehicles, you mount just by walking up and pressing an assigned key. Where you stand next to the vehicle when you press that key determines what position you take (gunner, driver, shotgun seat.) He confirmed that you would be able to play as either human or Covenant in multiplayer games, and of course as any combination therof.
They also claim to have new screenshots but they're not new. :( (Louis Wu 09:13:27 UTC)

Gamecenter E3 review posted
Bam! Matt Hilliard strikes again. Even before there was time to post his first tip, we got a second one... this time about a Gamecenter review. Matt points out a passage that either means the reporter goofed (my guess), or that the 'new' Marine isn't the ONLY marine:
Just as a Covenant alien moves in for the kill, the primary Halo soldier (the one clad in the gold armor and shown in most of the released screen shots), comes upon the scene and takes out the alien.
Makes you wonder, doesn't it? (Thanks again, Matt!) (Louis Wu 00:10:45 UTC)

e3news.com shows old MWNY trailer... why?
Just in from Tribby... Gamespot's e3news.com is showing Halo info RIGHT NOW. (started 7:30 PST) Unfortunately, it seems to be the MWNY trailer they're showing... pretty lame, if you ask me. (Wow, time warp. On the main e3news.com page, there's a link for Halo, first impression... the text might be new (doesn't seem to match any of the previous gamespot releases), but the pics are the first four screens ever released!)

I.M. Banks gets cyclical with T.S. Eliot
Hamish Sinclair notices a nice little bit of cyclicism in Iain M. Banks' Culture novel. The title of his latest book, Look To Windward, comes from a T.S. Eliot poem called "The Waste Land"... and this particular passage was quoted at the start of Banks' first Culture novel, Consider Phlebas. (Just to try and tie it all into Halo, another T.S. Eliot quote appears in the Cortana Letters.) Nice spotting, Hamish! (Louis Wu 20:32:47 UTC)

Doug confirms that second face is Shikai
In the midst of the chaos, info. While we let whatever's happening at the Core take its course, we'd like to pull out one nugget from the wreck that is the forum. Char the Pirate passed along that Doug Zartman confirmed that the sniper in the GameCenter shots is Shikai Wang, not Doug himself. The actual quote, on the off chance that all info at the Core is lost, was this:
In a letter to doug telling him what I liked about the shot i mentioned the snipers face (I congratulated him on it). He replied with this, "Thanks! I'd love to take the credit, but I gotta tell you (assuming you're talking about the Gamecenter screens) that that's a pic of Chucky and Shikai, one of the Halo artists. All of the team's faces are in one or another build of the game at this point."
Nice to have closure on that one. (Louis Wu 07:38:06 UTC)
