Spong is reporting that the X06 Korea event gave details on a 100Gb hard drive unit for the Xbox 360. No official confirmation, or word on pricing or availability. Not sure why such news would surface first in Korea, so take this with the usual helping of salt you reserve for Spong stories.
could someone help me with creating the PDF file for my Halo 3 piano transcription.
UPDATE: It's up now on the front page.
Was that the MA5B assualt rifle in the HALO3 trailer ? If so contact me please!!! Also if anyone has new H2 wallpaper contact me and is battle rifle in H3?
Ok, you have to be kidding me. Supposedly this is nothing more than an outlandishly freak coincidence, but according to the developer blog of Ensemble's Bruce Shelley, the internal codename used for the Halo Wars project is Phoenix-- the same codename used for a scuttled project at Bungie a few years ago that was rumored to be a strategy game of some kind, perhaps a fantasy game in the vein of Myth.
The HaloWars.com forums are both new and very busy. It has been difficult at time to get at the interesting discussions because so much time has been taken up by the same issues over and over again. Since the announcement of Halo Wars, some eleven thousand posts have been made. About half of them are about why marines have battle rifles.
Things are improving. Their FAQ, while short, one can assume will be expanded at some point. Two sticky threads, on most-often discussed issues and instructions to new posters have gone up to try and keep duplicates to a minimum.
Still, this has barely stemmed the tide of those who wonder about the battle rifle's presence.
I'll try to put this question to rest once and for all here. Wish me luck.

The buzz has died down a bit, but there are still a few sites catching up with the X06 Halo Wars bombshell. The latest is the BBC's site, which quoted Bungie's Brian "SketchFactor" Jarrard as well as HBO's own fansite editor, Claude "Louis Wu" Errera.
As for why a Halo RTS by Ensemble, Sketch put it nicely:
"Halo started as an RTS. Would the Bungie team love to do one themselves? Possibly.
Indie in the Halo Wars forum pointed out some listings from the jobs page at Ensemble Studios. What he found particularly interesting were two items for MMO environmental and concept artists; what I find interesting are the console programmer and Xbox Live developer positions.
1Up is reporting that EGM's issue #210, presumably the December 2006 issue if it will hit newsstands on November 14th as they claim, will feature Halo 3 in a big way. The current issue has a teaser for that feature.
Halo..............after seeing the H3 and HWars trailer it made me think..........What would it be like to actually be there fighting. Would you be exited to be in the real halo battles, or would you be scared? Let me know what you think.
I have created the sheet music for the piano part of the Halo 3 trailer!!! But how do I show it to you guys???

Supernostro pointed out an article at IGN suggesting that in Q1 of 2007, the CPU in the Xbox 360 will get an upgrade that will make the console more reliable:
