Unboxing: Loot Crate Halo Legendary Crate
Last month, we mentioned the latest Loot Crate Halo Legendary Crate, with an ODST theme... have you wondered what's inside? Wonder no more! We opened one, and, in a first-ever here on HBO, are offering a YouTube unboxing video! (Don't look outside - you might see pigs flying.) The window for grabbing this particular crate has closed... but the next one comes out in late December, and you've got until mid-December to order it! (The unboxing page contains a link and a discount code that'll save you 10%, if you're so inclined...) (Louis Wu 15:53:22 UTC)

Looks like the whole 'ODST-themed' LootCrate coming soon is getting a little bit of an endorsement (and appearance) from the greatest ODST ever.

Check out 'Parasite', a cool flood-themed multiplayer montage (in editing, not the mode) from Scace that spans Halo titles, and also check out 'Halo 3 Campaign-tage' from Spenz as he enjoys decimating some AI-enemies!

'I'm Here to Give the Covenant Back Their Cake.' - Halo and Cake Wars?
There have been some pretty outlandish products made under the 'Halo banner' of 343, but I'm not sure I ever saw the marriage of Halo and the TV show, Cake Wars.

Canon Fodder - Storm Surge
GrimBrother One surprised us with an early Canon Fodder last night going over some of the bits of last week's Community Update. We now have lore explanations for the new space station-themed map, Torque, the Decimator and Marauder armors and the brutish Gravity Hammer. There's even a tidbit on Spartan 010 Naomi's fate in this week's exploration of canonization! (MacGyver10 16:41:35 UTC)

Spartan Palmer, Go Straight to Jail! Do Not Pass Go and Do Not Collect $200!
Saw a tweet from Rob Semsey that had me doing a bit of Googling. Looks like in addition to the game of Risk, Halo will now let you put fortresses and firebases on Reach, New Mombasa and other Halo locales! Exclusively available at Gamestop, it's the Monopoly: Halo Collector's Edition available now with custom Halo-themed tokens, gameboard and more. (MacGyver10 21:34:34 UTC)

That Ain't No Banshee, It's A Warthog!
We've been following the custom paint job Mid7night has been working into his A-10 plane, and while he finished a short time ago, we had yet to see the 'bird' in action! Thanks to a friendly, windy day, Mid7night was able to take the plane out for some acrobatic maneuvering! Check out his forum post for some pretty cool pics and videos of his Halo-theme plane in action! (MacGyver10 15:43:06 UTC)

Now that's an incredible ear.
Wow. Check out this video from PlayerPiano - Sonya Belousova listens to the Halo theme for a few seconds... and then plays her own take on it. Amazing. (She covers a number of other video game themes in the same video.) Go watch! Thanks, Jeff.

Brinstar (New Mombasa Mix)
A couple of days ago, Wahrer stopped by with a new remix he'd put up - he worked on the Brinstar theme from Super Metroid in the style of 'Encounter' from the Mombasa Suite, off of the Halo 2 soundtrack. Interesting combination - go listen!

A pun, on the forum? Oh, yeah, Grim's back.
GrimBrother One returned to our forum to announce the latest Halo Bulletin - good to see him around! It contains info about next week's reboot of Halo Waypoint, pics of the upcoming Halo-themed ASTRO A50s, details about the Halo-related content available at New York Comic-Con this week, and the continuation of his very own series - "Canon Fodder". This in-depth look at events in the Halo universe is a fantastic resource, both for newcomers to the extended universe and for folks already immersed - there's so much out there it's easy to forget details. (We're also making one small deviation from the original Bulletin in our local version, for the first time: it seems that the screenshots are no longer presented in both full and thumbnail versions in the Bulletin, you have to follow the Fileshare link and download if you want the big version now. For the time being, we're going to continue supplying both, to save you a bunch of extra clicking.) (Louis Wu 16:12:43 UTC)

It's fall in Halo-land
This week's Halo Bulletin contains some nice tidbits: there's a Twitter giveaway, some great story background from (what used to be our own) GrimBrother One, a small FAQ focused on the copy of Halo CE that will appear in the Master Chief Collection next month, and some cool Autumn-themed screenshots. Go read! (As always, there's a copy in our Halo Bulletin Archive. Ours even has large versions of the screenshots.) On our forum, Grizzlei had some comments about this week's content - join the conversation! (Louis Wu 22:56:45 UTC)
