I’m sure most of us already own an Xbox 360, but for those of us that are still waiting to find a good deal or the right time to pick one up, now’s the time to make our voices heard and bring the price down for everyone’s benefit.

After much time and effort, TheRussianKolob (with the help of Dust Storm) has completed a transcription of every single terminal in Halo 3, including the legendary versions. For those plundering the depths of Halo 3 for answers, these terminals hold quite a few secrets and interesting details about the Forerunner, the Flood and of course, the Halo installations themselves.

Thanks to Godfree over at Gamertag Radio, here’s a quick look at some of the GamerCast Network coverage from the recent Kane & Lynch community day event, including some video of a roundtable with Eidos. Look closely and you’ll spot our very own Dialpex and Chevelle65 all up in the mix and giving their thoughts on the game.

Keep an eye on GTR for more impressions of Kane & Lynch: Dead Men, which hits stores next week on November 13th.

It’s time to give credit where credit’s due. Many of you have asked about the new theme music for Podtacular. It turns out it was made by Prototype Raptor as a remix for Overclocked Remix but somehow didn’t make their cut and is not featured in the Halo section of their site. It’s called Halo: Groove and I think the song is way better than some of the other stuff they have in the Halo section, but I digress. More info can be found in this forum thread on OCRemix and you can download the song in it’s entirety here. Thanks Prototype for making such an awesome song!

Word comes today that the upcoming Kane and Lynch: Dead Men from Eidos has been pushed up to November 13th, now scheduled to hit streets a full week ahead of schedule. via Xbox360Fanboy

Why is this important to us at Podtacular, you ask? As it turns out, our friends at the GamerCast Network have arranged a special community day event on November 8th and our very own Dialpex will be attending, along with others like Godfree from Gamertag Radio and Jay from Uncle Gamer. There they’ll be getting a hands-on look at the game’s multiplayer mode and a preview of the single player campaign, and will be reporting back with their impressions and feedback. So, if you’ve had an eye on Kane and Lynch, be sure to check out all the GCN coverage in the coming week!

After lots of hard work and collaboration to decipher all of the messages from the terminals found in Halo 3, some Podtacular members decided to flesh things out even more. Member Dust Storm has taken things to the next level and started building a mini-site detailing all of the terminals found in the game (including those found while playing on Legendary) complete with screenshots and videos! Check out them out at the links below.

If you’ve played your way through Halo 3′s campaign, you’ve most likely come across these terminals at some point in the game. Once activated, they display a cryptic set of messages that, unless you’re paying attention, might seem like utter nonsense.

As it turns out, member TheRussianKoLob has found all of the terminals and nabbed the achievement for doing so, but he’s also gone a step further by transcribing all the messages and information from these terminals, in an effort to piece together the story behind them.

As I have been going through the game to find all the terminals I have found that accessing the terminals is not just an achievement. It gives you a saved record of transmissions between two people. The first is Didact (D: ) and the second is Librarian (L: ). The transmissions are Fragments of transmissions that they sent to each other. Read More...
