I take it you guys don't watch football much.... The scoreboard says, "Steelers" not "Green Bay." What's the deal?

Sorry Bungie but the Packers are just too good for your little birds to handle.

!!GO HAWKS!!
That is the coolest Mister Chief Matt Hasselbeck! Unfreakingbelievable!
The McFarlane line looks tight. I really like the CQB figure.
Thanks for answering some of our questions on what is too come in the future.
Excellent update, now I am on my way to watch the Everett Silvertips play the Seattle Thunderbirds in Everett. Followed by a Halo 3 nightcap. That should hold me over 'til tomorrows NFL match-up.

"Eyes from Death's dream kingdom appear as sunlight on a broken column. There, in Death's other kingdom, walking alone, trembling lips form prayers to broken stone."

Yah, nice update. I wonder about Snowbound though, cuase obviously it is of some importance if it has to be kept secret. Also, this is just a question, and this question is for whoever works at Bungie that can respond, but, how difficult is it to make a new armor perm? If it isn't too difficult, I wouldn't mind seeing some more Elite armor, as Elites sort of got ripped off armor wise. If you charge people for new armor packs, I'm sure you would make some serious cash.

Would you guys be quiet about the stupid football game, This is about Halo 3 not football.
But anyway's those figures look awesome.
And yeah it's like impossible to see a Brute stalker without knocking its armor off and un cloaked.

I can't wait till people buy those figures and mutilate them and add Shredder heads and the like just to make their personalized APs. It'll be kind of cool when some crazy guy makes Recon helmets and shoulders and armor and stuff.

great update, I'm still thinking about what this one could be..sounds interesting.

Are the orange worm-type thingies in the back of the Scarab the same things as the worms in Hunters, or is it just superficial resemblance?

The resemblance is not just superficial. A future DLC map might expand upon that mystery.

Also, WOW that ODST figure looks awesome! Now why can't we have a body armor permutation like that for the ODST! I would definetely wear it if something like that were ever released.

"Eyes from Death's dream kingdom appear as sunlight on a broken column. There, in Death's other kingdom, walking alone, trembling lips form prayers to broken stone."

Yah, those action figures are gonna be sweet. I'm guessing we haven't seen all of them, because there ABSOLUTLY has to be Elite action figures LOL.

exactly. since my last question about when the New Maps would be appearing in ranked lists went unheard, I'll rephrase it a little and ask again

When are the old new maps (now that the new maps are kind of old and new ones are already on the horizon) going to be added to all the playlists ranked or unranked. Standoff, for example, is too good of a map to not be in multiple playlists, especially skirmish. ***sigh*** but still no new information from them. Seems Bungie is more worried about cranking out maps than getting these 3 into the playlists they belong.

not really pissed about it but its more of a WTF....

They are already in the playlists dummie. The problem is that not everyone has the new maps thus it is rare to play them on ranked/social playlists.

Somewhere out there... in an alternate reality... Marty decided to stay in the ad jingle business, bringing about an age of amazingly orchestrated Pampers commercials.
