Another big week with Spyro's USF Election making a return so let's get into things:
 
Primary Announcement:

 Hi

 
 
ANNOUNCEMENT
 
343i+Logo.jpg
This will be the last time I post this announcement here. Absolute Dog has come in contact with someone at 343industries and they've given us the opportunity to play test for them should you choose to sign up. You will also be getting paid to play test for them. Find the announcement by clicking the picture above.
 
 
DESTINY

Destiny Cover Art Revealed Plus Trailer Announcement

Lovely isn't it? The Destiny Cover Art was revealed today and brought to our attention by News Group Member adamj004. Along with this however, Bungie also revealed that there will be a trailer out soon. What's to come? Greatness that's for sure.

 

 

Destiny Beta for Pre-Order Customers

Bungie is always good to its fans and that's why if you've been good to them by pre-ordering Destiny, they're going to give you access to the Destiny Beta before its official release. OH YEAAHHH. Announcement by Jester.

 
 

The Podcast Crew - Although I only see Muse online anymore of the crew, my first group interview was a very fun and interesting one. The guys that make up the Podcast Crew are some of the funniest members especially if you get them together.
 
 
FORGE
343industries.org and The Halo Forge Epidemic present:

The Meet Your Maker Dominion Forge Contest is over. Each Forger was allowed two submissions this time around. Judging has begun.
 
Forging The Future

The future of Machinima has arrived! Here is a huge project started by our Art Department's Gryffin in association with THFE and ourselves. He's got a lot of members voice acting for him and we're backing this Machinima 100%. It's about 5 Spartans that get sent to Earth to find Monitors that landed there after Requiem exploded. Tons of work being put into this project. Find out all you need to know, even a debut date, by clicking the banner.
 
 
343 Industries Community Forge Project
By this point you should know what the CFP is and if you don't then read about it here.
Post some ideas for our community in the CFP Idea Discussion thread here.
You Will Partake in the Community Forge Project...
 
 
Featured Map
modernapartment3_67_zps9e28f647.jpgI've finally come across a map that I liked so much from seeing the screenshots that I've decided to make the Featured Map sub-section return. The above screenshot is a view of the kitchen from a distance in Astiir's Modern Apartment. The construct is Forge aesthetics at its finest and well worth a look. Truly a good idea and well executed. More detailed screenshots in the map thread, well done Astiir. You better know where to find that by now.
 
 
GAMING NEWS
 Games with Gold October

Nice write up! :clap:

 

Balancing my excitement with restraint when it comes to Destiny is becoming increasingly more difficult. Beta...I am not sure if I want to spoil it for myself.

 

Great map Astiir, I don't get a chance to see technical forging much anymore. Downloaded, and if when I get a chance to look at it I will leave a comment for you.
