Aesthetic Artist Interview 16: WaiHo C
We meant to post this yesterday - but our posting intern forgot to put it up. (Needless to say, he's been fired. I guess I'm stuck with the job.) The Aesthetic Artist Interview series has awoken from its year-long slumber; COL0NEL SANDERS sent along an interview of WaiHo C, and some of his eye-catching Halo 3 screenshots. Good stuff - enjoy it! (Louis Wu 16:41:46 UTC)

An Embarrassment of Riches
When Bungie employees compete to produce the most info-filled update ever... you win. The Bungie Weekly Update released last night is chock-full of status updates, strategies, difficulty descriptions, and multiplayer crowing. It also contains a quarter - a quarter - of the massive Chris Opdahl Q&A built from our forumgoers' questions. (The whole thing will get its own treatment in the near future.) There's also a reveal of most of the items available in the Armory on Day 1 (you can't USE them all on Day 1, but you can at least see them). This makes it clear that Steve Downes did, in fact, do Firefight voiceover work. (As did Jen Taylor, and Tim Dadabo, and Nathan Fillion, and Dave Scully.) And there's stuff about Xbox LIVE Avatars, including a freebie you can snag at some of the gaming conventions this summer. There's a bit more about multiplayer achievements, and why you shouldn't hate them. And there's a great screenshot that's just DYING to be used by Hawty's Friday Caption Fun. As always, if you have any trouble with Bungie.net, you can read this in our Weekly Update Archive. (Louis Wu 14:43:05 UTC)

Details on Halo Marketplace changes
TCKaos pointed out that in the Xbox LIVE Marketplace Spotlight, there's a video called 'Add-ons, Avatar Gear, Arcade' that details some of the new goodies coming on July 22. The Legendary Map Pack drops in price to 160 MS Points (that's just over a buck!), while the Mythic Map Pack is reduced to 400 Points. (For comparison, those prices are currently 600 and 800 Points, respectively.) The new avatar goodies are also revealed (screenshot here) - note the 'Helmet not available until game releases' warning at the bottom. (Louis Wu 19:03:01 UTC)

Finished!
onebitrocket pointed out a new tweet from Marty O'Donnell (5:17 am his time!) which says 'Finished!' Does Marty mean his work on Reach? His work on an Official Reach Soundtrack? That bagel he started at 5 am? Here's hoping we find out at some point.

Spike Grenade for sale
We showed off a cool spike grenade from smick6 last year - Hawty McBloggy noticed yesterday that one of them just went up for sale on eBay. You've got a day and a half left to make your decision; starting bid is $150, and MAN it's pretty.

TSL Interviews OK Go
As mentioned in the recent Podtacular episode with Chris Burke, This Spartan Life's interview with OK Go went live on Halo Waypoint yesterday. It's a fantastic discussion of the creative process, and how that's changing with social networking... but the highlight of the video, for me at least, was a spectacular merging of a cool remix of OK Go's 'This Too Shall Pass' with an incredible Rube-Goldberg map created by our very own pete_the_duck. If you've got a LIVE Gold account, go visit Waypoint - this one isn't to be missed. If you want to discuss this, Hedgemony started a thread on our forum. (His title, 'Pete the duck rulz!' is a direct quote from the video.) (Louis Wu 15:33:17 UTC)

Halo Action Comic
We got word from neo56695 about a 'Halo Action Comic Chapter 1' on YouTube; it's a story told in screenshots, with added fades and music. There's no dialogue, and no motion... but it's still an interesting experiment! Chapter 2 is live, as well. (Louis Wu 16:11:08 UTC)

Putting out the Fires
Hawty McBloggy solicited submissions for a collection of screenshots showing off fans wearing the Bungie-only flames that were made available to the entire community on Wednesday - she got so many she had to put them up in two parts. (Part 1 | Part 2) And while the presentation isn't nearly as pretty, or as big (and some of the images overlap Hawty's collections), our forum started to do the same thing - you'll find the thread here. Thanks, once again, to Bungie, for opening their closet and allowing us a brief but shining moment of dress-up! (Remember that you can wear this any time in Reach, simply by purchasing the Legendary Edition of the game.) (Louis Wu 10:54:28 UTC)

I gotta show my mom.
Antithesis has uploaded another bunch of images, this time mostly of personalized clay Spartans. We've added them to his gallery here; the first new one is a streamlined Master Chief, but if you use the 'Next' button on that screen, you can see a series of images of very specific Spartans. One might even say they were modeled after real players. Or something. I'm pretty partial to the little grey guy with the ODST helmet.

Just a reminder: FyreWulff's Bungie Dayathon 2010 is under way; he's about to start playing Oni, and a large block of Halo is following that directly. Go watch, go contribute - all money goes to the Brian Morden Foundation! (Louis Wu 17:34:28 UTC)

Things that make you go 'hmm...'
Been a little while since I used that headline... but Laird found a collection of images at Sterling Davis Photo labeled 'Biscuit Filmworks/Halo', showing off some greenscreened photography of what LOOKS like a Noble Team Spartan. (The armor looks like Kat, but the model's a man.) This went down in Los Angeles, but there's no date anywhere. Could this be related to tomorrow's Bungie Day reveal... or is it something else? Curiouser and curiouser... Update: found a blog entry tied to the gallery; this was posted a week ago Saturday. As Davis mentions, Biscuit Filmworks was involved in the 'Birth of a Spartan' piece - maybe this is a followup? Update: Guess these were causing Sterling Davis a headache; they're offline now.

Exploring what happens offscreen
Newsarama talked to Brian Reed recently about his upcoming Halo comic series based on The Fall of Reach. It appears that the series coming out this fall is just the first in a SERIES of series. There are also other details which might give you a sense for what to expect this fall when the comics begin. Thanks, Hedge!

Love comes in lots of forms
Hawty McBloggy found a pair of Halo celebrations - a July-4th-celebrating screenshot from DEATH WISH 1991, and a bunch of very cool LEGO creations from Ewok in Disguise. Take a look! (Louis Wu 15:47:04 UTC)

One Life Remaining S2: Episode 4
It's July 4th, and we SHOULD be celebrating... but there are a couple of hours before the picnic starts, so why not throw up some Halo news? First up: trappeddark1 pointed out that Season 2 Episode 4 of One Life Remaining is now online - sometimes, you shouldn't listen to your doctor. Or your dad.

ubald moves on
Due to a problem with our email spam filters, it seems we've been blocking a lot of mail in the past month or so. Things are cleared up (if you sent us something and it seemed to have entered a black hole on this end, you might want to send it again), but it's been discovered that one of the things we lost was the final body of Halo renders from Tony 'ubald' Marcotte. Over the past month, he's sent along 5 new images, and apparently, he's done with Halo renders at this stage. We've added them to his gallery here - and you really should take a look. Click the thumbnails below to see each new image. (Or start at the first one, and use the 'Next' link below it to navigate...)
Spectacular! I'm sad that these have come to an end... (Louis Wu 01:11:00 UTC)

Tuesday Video Fun
New vids at Bungie's Comm Chatter today:
- Frenetic Array is a Halo 3 montage from Australia's #1 Halo team (Frenetic Array) - very pretty editing, lots of multikills, my only real complaint would be that the first two minutes are all intro.
- The second installment of the Halography screenshot montage series contains shots from ODST - pretty.
- HaloReachForum put together a community montage of clips from the Reach Beta - just a couple of minutes of footage, but nice quality.
Go watch! (Louis Wu 17:39:53 UTC)
