Weekly Porridge #52: THE FINAL EPISODE

Yep. That’s all folks! It’s been great fun watching you guys enjoy the strip, so while it’s a little painful to bring it to an end, it’s a little satisfying too, to know that for most intents and purposes, Weekly Porridge was a success.

I hope you enjoy this last strip and please, don’t fear, I do believe it’s very likely that Jeverage and Painkilla will still pop up to say hello from time to time.

Halo 3 Release Date Announced!

Today, May 16th, marks the beginning of the Public Halo 3 Multiplayer beta. In keeping with their penchant for theatrics, Bungie has announced the official release date for Halo 3.

The magic date is: September 25th, 2007!

This comes as a shocker to many Halo fans among us, who naturally assumed that Halo 3 would release in November or December, like it’s predecessors. A late September release means we’ll all be playing Halo 3 a whole lot sooner than expected! So get crackin’ on that Beta and let’s all ready up for September 25th!

Welcome, friends and family!

As some of you have already noticed, some members of the Podtacular community are now getting a chance to play the Halo 3 beta early, thanks to Bungie’s Friends and Family program. If you haven’t already, be sure to check your inbox over at Bungie.net to see if you’re invited.

Some of these people were invited directly from Bungie, while others were chosen at random, so chances of people getting in were already pretty slim, but don’t let that get you down. As long as you’ve been invited through one of the other three methods, you’ll still get your chance to put Halo 3 to the test on Wednesday May 16th. There are some people who won’t even get into that, and moreover, there are people who don’t even have a 360, so consider yourself lucky! :)

Be sure to also check out the new Halo 3 Beta Test forum and keep a sharp eye out for a special early podcast with our first impressions of the beta and what you can expect from it!
