Awesome post Brett! Must be featured in the Wrapup this upcoming week.

I don't know what happened but I'm happy it happened to JL...

Oh man I'm a little embarrassed to say haha I've got an old Blackberry Curve that I've had since 2010. It's a long lasting phone, the only reason I need a new one now is because I finally did something dumb enough to break the screen

Hmmm pondering the 5c. I desperately need a new phone and depending on the memory, it might be this one. Not digging the 8megapixel camera, I wish it were more.

Well originally I wanted to get this out on Saturday but this turned into a busy weekend and so we skipped a weekend but hopefully I didn't skip any beats. Enjoy: Primary Announcement: I decided to change the way I direct you to links. I tried to provide pictures and hyperlink them for each section and sub-section so I'm not always saying 'Click here! Click here! Find it here!.' It doesn't apply to all the sections however. ANNOUNCEMENT I haven't seen a time limit on this so I assume it's still going and I haven't noticed too much activity with it so hopefully this picture will help!

GAMING NEWS Halo 4 Global Championship Final Match Sudden Death http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8l0mONFYdM&feature=player_embedded A totally intense battle in the Halo 4 Global Championship between Elamite Warrior's brother Ace and the all powerful iGotUrPistola. It brought back good memories to see competition like this in Halo. Watch to see the winner and here's a link to TrulyExclusive's thread. Xbox One: First TV Commercial Here's the Xbox One's first television commercial brought to us here by none other than the CooliestRap. Tell him what you think they could've done and what they should've done that could've made it better. Or tell him what you think in general about it in his thread. Xbox One Release Date Confirmed The Xbox One's release date has been confirmed by many across the net. I'm not going to tell you here if you don't know already because I actually want you to visit adamj's article. That's why he makes them. I hope you know what to click to find the article by this point in the Wrapup. PS4 Release Date Also Confirmed The PlayStation 4's release date has also been announced. I won't tell you here so you can read Absolute Dog's article. I'll give you a hint: it comes out before the Xbox One! For more Gaming News check out the latest on our Front Page here. HOT TOPIC Halo Command - Browser Based Halo Strategy/RPG/Text Based Game Started by a member by the name of Glitch100, Halo Command will be a browser based Halo game involving the aspects of Strategy/RPG/TBRPGs which is what makes it very interesting. I support Halo Command because it's just another step towards bringing back the love for the Halo Universe itself and not just the games and multiplayer which is what everyone's been focusing on since Halo 4 came out. This may not be an official 343 game but it is something to look into. Click the picture to get linked to the Halo Command thread.

Yes that is the picture that was used when announcing BZ as June's MoM. PLAY DATES I'm trying to make Play Dates come back NEXT SATURDAY. That is the Saturday after this one coming up.

Quite a find by a member by the name of Brett on our site. I've used Brett's video's before in the Wrapup so his name might be familiar to some of you whether it's from seeing it here or watching his videos when he posts them himself. Anyway, the pan-cam feature is pretty awesome. It's only accessible through Theater mode. Just watch that video and leave it a like and maybe comment and tell Brett how much you liked it here. Wrapup concluded. Now scroll back up and read it all over again. View full article

It has to be the Forerunners. I'm all for supporting the UNSC of course but it's definitely the Forerunners. Plain and simply they're a futuristic race of alien with technology that far surpasses ours. We have the potential to be stronger than the Forerunners but that's not the case right now.

I'm totally in. GamerTag: LL Kool D Can't wait to be running things in GTA!

Welcome to our humble abode! If you have questions on here just ask up there ^^^ in the Shoutbox!

I decided against PMing because I'm going to do it anyway!

Brett I really like your videos you have good content. Do you mind if I put this in the YouTube section of the Weekly Site Wrapup?

I can dig it.

Welcome to the site SpiritCoyote. If you have any questions, ask me or the gentleman above me

I saw some great clips of gameplay there! To me this looks like the Shadowrun of the future! Shadowrun meets Halo with some Brink influences. And I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what else Bungie has in store for us. Thanks for the news adam!

Love Splinter Cell: Blacklist. I actually wish I still had Conviction just to play through it again. I'm kinda not really into Spies vs. Mercs but I get my joy out of redoing campaign and 4E missions going Assault style. Playing through on Professional wasn't as hard as I thought it'd be but it was just a thing to do. I prefer to play on normal because I can have fun doing different play styles and using different gadgets. Like CooliestRap said above though, technically posts require more than just a video. They require at least a blurb underneath summarizing or describing the video. I won't remove this thread but for future reference please try to put a few sentences in there for it to count as a legitimate post. Hope you don't take this the wrong way Oophilly I love your video playthroughs

Give me a week or two to acclimate to balancing school and work again and I should be back to hosting. Some big ideas in the works.

Yeah Zan! I'm really happy about this choice. Great work in the Forge Community and in the Halo Community in general Zandril. You're a great asset not only to Forge Café but to us as well. Keep up the good work

My honest answer: none of the above. My choice would be Preston J. Cole, creator of the Cole Protocol and amazing ship captain. Read "The Impossible Life and Very Possible Death of Preston J. Cole" in Halo: Evolutions (forget which volume) and you'll see why. Second would be Captain Jacob Keyes - inventor of the Keyes Loop making him a legend in ship control and leadership. (For clarity for whoever reads this, Jacob Keyes only reached the rank of captain and his daughter Miranda became a commander.) From the above however, I choose the Arbiter. A single Elite who was at the bottom of his social given a second chance is an automatic +1 on the leadership scale. He went from a naked Elite branded with the Mark of Shame to the most renowned Elite in the Covenant. This was chosen by the Prophets but it's not the only reason he's the best military mastermind shown in the OP. What I love about the Arbiter was that he created a massive Elite uprising during the Great Schism and teamed up with the UNSC to dismantle the Covenant and create alliances. This was, strategically, the best thing to do. He didn't want to be ruled by the Prophets because they were lying and were leading the Covenant to death so he chose a strong ally and although his forces are hurt strongly. He helped put an end to the long war and has time to build his army back up with the alliance he has with Humanity.

AWESOME GRYFFIN. Can't wait to see the first episode!
