So, You're Not in Bungie Favorites?
Looks to me like many players are getting a lot of exposure to their Halo 3 files now that there is a new tagging system in place. Stosh might not have selected the chosen images for the Weekly Update but those are some pretty awesome screenshots that you have added to the Weekly Update. Thank you for the new tagging system to the Halo 3 files Stosh.

Matchmaking November Update
Team Snipers sounds hardcore, literally. I have to admit I am actually more excited that now that Team Snipers has it's own hopper that the gametypes will be removed from the other Slayer hoppers. What can I say, I suck with the Sniper Rifle.
Turkey Day sounds awesome, I can't wait to check this Double EXP weekend playlist out when it comes around.

Avast, Seafaring Jammers
I will have to go and check this out. Surrender the booty!

Halo 3: Recon Update
Those are some interesting activities going into the production of Halo 3: Recon. That is cool that you have told us some of the staff members that are working on the new project.
Steve Scott's photoshopping of Bungie staff is freaking me out, funny as hell though.

  • 10.24.2008 5:22 PM PDT

New Marathon? Thanks Bungie!

sweet pics sweet update and sweet photoshop yep looks like the good old days r back

  • 10.24.2008 5:32 PM PDT

Marty is taking a break from making Halo 3: Recon music to score his daughter’s wedding. ...but congrats to Marty!

On a scale of 1-10, how hard is it to make the weekly update?

Finished the fight.

Can we get the tracks from Marty's daughter's wedding once they're finished? I'm sure they're just as awesome as his masterpieces for Halo!

Really Lukie... That's it? Did you start your weekend celebrating a little early today? A couple of photo's from B-Favs, a copy and paste from shiska's email about the playlist update,
and a "so-and-so is taking a dump right now, a dump to nowhere"
and you Shiska... Just because there is a snipers playlist doesn't mean I don't mind playing it once in a while in social slayer...C'mon now.
other than that... the usual mysterious ramblings...


The updates will remain short from now till ages from now.
We're going back to the roots.
Back to the origins.
Better bone up on your history.


OOOOOoooooh Does this mean I can haz double shot? and BXR? and BXB? and maybe even blood gultch!!111!1!11one!11o!ne1!!on!!eone

Lol I had posted on that and seen it a week and a half ago when Vigilante aka Diktator took it and posted it in Foto. Congrats to him. He's the only good one up there in my opinion. Lets get more good ppl up there next week.

Great pics, and I'm glad there's a Team Sniper's playlist. But I'm not sure what you mean when you say the sniper has become "close to mid-range" and "slower projectiles". Luuuke, Shishka's scaring me!
