Noble Team
One more before I go - looks like RedGrimRune has a pretty awesome new art piece up in his DeviantART gallery. (I hadn't put his screenname together with his real name, which makes the number of HBO regulars who are among the 9 Evolutions Art Contest winners now 5. That's absurd.) (Louis Wu 14:33:02 UTC)

Don't get him started on #2 pencils.
Red vs Blue Revelation is winding down - or maybe up. Just three episodes left, after tonight's - Chapter 17, Tenth Percentile, is now live for everyone. It's a killer of an ep - lots of cool info, some funny jokes, some clever writing. Go watch it. Can't wait for the rest! (Louis Wu 03:37:53 UTC)

Fan Art Goodies
DEEP NNN brought us info of another piece of artwork from 2old2play's BATMANKM - Armor Lock never looked so tasty! And remember that gorgeous Engineer created by TDSpiral we mentioned yesterday? He's created a fantastic widescreen wallpaper for it it's huge (2048x1152), and comes in three variants, depending on where you want the actual Engineer. Glorious. Update: eep, almost missed one. CaptainTony put up a poster inspired by Inglourious Basterds. (Louis Wu 10:51:31 UTC)

Remember Reach campaign - starts soon!
If you're interested in catching up on the mini-ARG that's set to kick off tomorrow on RememberReach.com, MovieViral.com has a summary. It'll probably be a bit less confusing when the information is coming out the way its creators intended... (Louis Wu 10:48:52 UTC)

More Reach Video from Gamescom
DancingJesus pointed out two new vids that contain Reach info - Inside Gaming confirmed that you'll be able to rewind Campaign/Firefight saved films (the Reach section starts about 2:40 into their Day 3 Coverage of Gamescom), while GamerLive TV has a 7-minute interview with Brian Jarrard. Go watch! (Louis Wu 10:48:07 UTC)

Social Networking - for Spartans
IGN talked to Bungie's Chris Gossett about the new Bungie.net features we'll see rolled out for Reach. Some of this stuff appeared with the Reach Beta this spring - but there's plenty of new goodness (and refined stuff that works even better); it's a mouth-watering read. (Do you like Facebook-style image tags, telling you who's in a picture? Reach will do that for uploaded screens... automatically.) Go read it. Then check the calendar - only 24 more days! (Well, and a little.) (Louis Wu 22:07:12 UTC)

It's out there.
Just a warning - looks like Reach is out there in the wild. This time it seems we can't blame the French; apparently, a group of modders figured out how to fool Xbox.com into allowing a download of the copies put up for some press. (Ouch!) Videos and screenshots are already online, and it's likely that if you hang around on forums, you WILL see spoilers. (We'll do our best to keep them off the HBO forum, but we can't guarantee anything... and we certainly can't help with other places on the interwebs.) So if you're looking to play Reach unspoiled... now might be a good time to go dark. (Louis Wu 13:17:08 UTC)

Rocket Hog Action
It's offscreen, but it's still worth watching - VideoGamer.com has put up a video of some Rocket Hog gameplay on Beachhead, recorded at Gamescom. Thanks, Kibbles. (Louis Wu 20:24:11 UTC)

Fan Coverage in Unlikely Places
Wow. So a website devoted to materials handling, "ForkliftAction.com", has an article about the new forklift in Reach. How's THAT for fan coverage? (You can only read the article if you're a member of the site, so if you're interested, but NOT a part of that industry, we'll save them their bandwidth and the headaches of unnecessary signups and show you this screenshot. Forky Forever! (Louis Wu 17:23:34 UTC)

Also at Gamescom - Outpost
There's no footage of it that I can find, but apparently Outpost was shown at Gamescom, as well - G4TV has a short writeup. (Thanks, DarthYoda19.) If you don't remember which one Outpost is, CVG posted some screenshots a few weeks ago. (Louis Wu 16:05:14 UTC)

Gamescom Resource Compilation
Over at Bungie.net, Homeboyd903 has been keeping a list of media resources around the web devoted to Reach at Gamescom - if you want to make sure you haven't missed anything (you probably have, there's a TON), this is a good place to start! (Louis Wu 15:44:29 UTC)

Death by staring
More off-screen footage, this time from GamePro - awful color, even worse playing, but hey, you get to see Corvette. Thanks, Minime637. (Louis Wu 19:17:51 UTC)

Hard-to-come-by Concussion Rifle footage
Eye Drop suggested that folks looking for a view of the new Covenant Concussion Rifle in action take a look at a recent episode of 'Headshot' with The Dead Pixel - it's offscreen footage, but about 1:30 into the video is a kill using the gun. (Louis Wu 13:42:39 UTC)

Multilevel Carnage
Awesome - 1UP's GameVideos has off-screen footage of Firefight gameplay on Corvette - it's a little blue, but you can get a good sense of the layout and flow. Thanks to butsomuch, over at NeoGAF, for the heads-up. Update: Part 2 is here (thanks, TravisSch).

A Spartan Will Rise
Swing by Bungie.net for the newest treat from our Reach overlords - 'A Spartan Will Rise' is a three-minute thrill-ride into Halo: Reach's campaign. (Will it spoil the game for you? Highly unlikely, since Bungie wants nothing more than for you to be bowled over on September 14. That said - if you're staying Campaign-dark, stay away. Will it whet your appetite for more? Well, if you're anything like me... yeah. Yeah, x1000.) Think you know Noble Team? Speculators... start your engines! (It's up on YouTube, too, if you have an aversion to downloads.)

ubald comic - Echoes in the Grave
Tony 'ubald' Marcotte continues his work on a Halo comic; he sent along what started as an attempt for the cover, but ended up a character shot. Either way - pretty cool! (Louis Wu 15:33:52 UTC)

Top Ten Halo Screenshots: Pleasurable Pastimes
This week's Top Ten Halo Screenshots feature at Halo3screenshots.com is called 'Pleasurable Pastimes' - when I saw that, I cringed, thinking bs angel might have filled it with Spartan Pr0n. She kept it clean, though, and the images are fantastic. Go look.

Building the Story
Marcus Lehto talked to CVG about the development of Reach's campaign - instead of starting with a story, and building missions around it, they started with mission ideas (lots of them - about 150, according to Lehto), narrowed them down to their favorite 20 or so, then turned THOSE into a story. (Clearly, many were merged, since the Achievement list for Reach suggests roughly 10 campaign missions.) Interesting! (It's unclear if his comment that you'll be able to play campaign 'matchmaking over Live' is a misstatement... or a super-cool feature Bungie hadn't announced before. More when we know it.) Thanks, chess. (Louis Wu 15:41:01 UTC)

Montage Mania
Bunch of new vids at Bungie's Comm Chatter (mostly montages):
- I've Got Love is a Halo 3 montage from ixRecoiL - man likes his sniper rifle.
- Gewdfellar released his first Halo 3 montage - he likes HIS sniper rifle, too.
- Chao has his first Halo 3 montage online too. Nice editing.
- Maxdoggy1 whipped up a screenshot montage from Halo Reach screens (mostly officially-released ones).
That should keep you busy for a few minutes... (Louis Wu 17:22:08 UTC)

Whatever happened to 'brrring'?
Whatever happened to 'brrring'?
Free Weights created a really complex ringtone for his phone - I think I'd scare everyone I knew if that sound started coming out of my pocket, but it works for him! Go listen. (Louis Wu 15:51:50 UTC)

Halo Scale Comparison - Revisited, AGAIN
Stephen Loftus wasn't content with his existing scale charts - he went back into the games and measured a whole bunch of new items and objects for his Halo Scale Comparison. The layout for the cascading images has been permanently changed to 1280x720 (he started using this format for his recent overhaul for the Halo Waypoint pages, and stuck with it because it allows more horizontal room for height comparisons). You can navigate the full set of images by starting on the largest items, and drilling down. (Changes begin around the Forerunner Dreadnaught scale.) Some surprises await you! (Louis Wu 20:53:15 UTC)

Forge World objects in SketchUp
Overdoziz built up a set of pieces that match the Forge World objects we know about - for SketchUp. You can't phase 'em - but you can certainly get started on planning! Update: sorry, misread - Overdoziz just found this, didn't make it himself. (Louis Wu 12:55:26 UTC)

Last week's screens, writ big
NeoGAF's Ajemsuhgao pointed out that the new screenshots released recently (70 of 'em, both campaign and multiplayer) are available at Gamersyde. Now, they're available ALL OVER the web, including Bungie.net... but if you want versions that are 3840x2160, Gamersyde is where you should go.
