Alrighty then, have a nice weekend!

Seriously though, when you do your podcast, can you put that Mister Chief head into Face Robot and make him talk??

Luke Smith from 1UP has accepted a job at Bungie.

Frankie's podcast statement is almost certainly in reference to Luke's hiring.

Awww, nothing this week. :(
Well at least we know you guys didn't kill your podcast.

Frank O'Connor is a 12-year veteran of the videogame magazine industry and has therefore never worked an honest day in his life.

I found out what it is. Some might want it to be secret so i won't post it here. P.M me and I'll tell you. it's sweet, it does have to deal with podcasts (and people on podcast) and whatever it is same thing happened to Frankie.

EDIT: nevermind...Eric said it. I'm extremely happy.

Thanks for the update. Short and (bitter?)sweet. I'm very interested in what that info is regarding the next future Bungie podcast. We've been waitin' on that forever. Looking forward to that FAQ regarding the Beta as well. I take it the Mister Chief on the News Page for the Humpday write-up was all we get this week, eh?

The important thing to realize, I guess, is that a crazy-frantic week for you guys will hopefully translate into goodies for us.

When he said he had got a new job bungie was the first thing that I thought it was. I hope it is so I can still see Luke Smith. :O

Check out the Postgame Carnage Report! The uncensored, NSFW Halo fan podcast!

Wonder that this mystery podcast will be about...

The Scarab Lord Cometh. Prepare yourselves for the arrival. For you the day The Scarab Lord arrives will be the greatest day of your life. For him, it will be...Tuesday.

(Sorry, don't know what day the Bungie Podcasts airs, though I'm about to find out all about it! :) )
(Ps. Extra credit points if you can name the movie that last quote is inspired by! :) )

You will be missed.

Dont get too wrapped up in the Internet. It's already forgotten about you.

For not having a lot of information this was actually one of the most clear and informative updates in quite some time.

I'm really hoping that all of the map downloading problems have been fixed because some of my best mates haven't been able to get them.

Get those weak asss glitches fixed in the new maps too.
Honestly, to the guys at CA, I can't understand how hundreds of people can find those glitches in a few hours but you and your playtesters couldn't find them.

I dont' think they said that either

Inside the Mind of Halotitan Help me get expand my mind.

are they still putting the maps into matchmaking next tuesday??

  • 04.20.2007 5:47 PM PDT

Wait, you actually checked this?

Will you be my friend?

I really hope that the glitches on the new maps get fixed before they're shipped off to matchmaking. Especially that one in Tombstone. You know what I mean...

Nice update, and lots of excitement, but I gotta ask...

How did the invisible/invincable walls in Tombstone make it past the testers? One is to the Left of the "ramp,' and the other is near the shot-gun base under red-base. These are serious game-play issues, not to mention the other glitches.

Certain Affinity made bueatiful/awesome maps (I love the pistol eater-egg on Tombstone), and they're given us a lot of custom fun so far, but these things need fixed if possible. It's understandable as they are a "new" company, but product quality is a must, expecially considering that people from our clan and my friends list (as well as everyone elses, I'm sure) are playing again after 3-6+ month vacations.

I can't wait until the Beta.

Awesome good stuff.

Just a quick question for Bungie staff or perhaps anybody else in the know that may have already heard about this from some other article or forum post...

Will the Halo 3 Beta keep the game stats, at least in such a form as we can view them from the website and have something to reminisce about while us working stiffs are away-from-console?

Much obliged, in any case. The new maps are pretty dang spiffy, IMO. Keep up the good work!
