    This November will mark the 10-year anniversary of the debut of the legendary Halo: Combat Evolved. Part of the celebration of the game that put the Xbox on the map will be the release of the new "Anniversary" version for the Xbox 360 that features updated visuals.

    In addition, Diamond Select Toys, the maker of the excellent Minimates line of highly detailed 2-inch toys, will be releasing a new series of figures in their Halo line. Series 4 will feature Master Chief, Cortana, Captain Keyes, and the Prophet of Truth. The new line will debut this winter, but you can pre-order the box set here.

    E3 is one of my favorite times of the year, and this year's expo isn't disappointing. While there has been an avalanche of amazing news, the Halo fan in me who spent countless hours in college playing Halo multiplayer is particularly giddy about the prospect of some interplanetary dog-fighting. Check out this trailer from Halo: Reach to see what we have to look forward to.
