PAX Prime is upon us, which means we have a busy weekend ahead, and so do you. PAX Prime, the primest of the Penny Arcade Expos, starts this Friday, and we’re looking forward to the masses of gaming fans making their way to our neck of the woods. The event is sold out, it’s been a consistent 82 degrees and sunny in the greater Seattle area, and we have the North American playable premiere of Halo: The Master Chief Collection and Halo 2: Anniversary - it looks like we’re gearing up for quite a weekend. Whether you’ll be joining us in downtown Seattle, or will be glued to Twitter, Twitch, and Waypoint, we’re excited to have you with us.

Late last week, we posted our official PAX Prime 2014 Schedule, and we’ve updated it with some new details. Check out the below to see what’s going down on both the show floor and Twitch.tv/Halo.

I’m rather excited about this weekend’s tournament, which will give us a chance to check out Halo 2: Anniversary in the hands of some of the biggest names in professional Halo.

Be sure to tune in when the action kicks off this Saturday at 12-noon PDT.

====<big>NECA Master Chief Helmet Update</big>====


[[Fichier:Frankie1 Master Chief Helmet HB2014 n32.jpg|center|600px]]

You may recall that our friends at [http://necaonline.com/48295/licenses/video-games/halo/first-look-at-the-halo-master-chief-motorcycle-helmet-prototype-video/ NECA] are working hard on creating the DOT-Approved Master Chief Motorcycle Helmet you’ve always dreamed of wearing. This week, they were kind enough to send us an early prototype for us to take a look at, and Frank was more than happy to ride his <s>Rascal scooter</s> Honda Ruckus to complete the look.

====<big>Halo 4 Matchmaking Update</big>====

[[Fichier:Heavies-banner- HB2014 n32.jpg|center|600px]]

We’ve got a Halo 4 Matchmaking update on the way as well, and in celebration of PAX this weekend, we’ll be pushing out the update two days early. Beginning this Saturday, Squad DLC will become our featured playlist and will be live until September 15.

And for those who love vehicular carnage (and watching Warthogs careen across the sky on Halo 4’s largest maps), Heavies is getting an update. We’re adding Dominion to your favorite Heavies maps, and it will appear in the third slot. Dominion will offer a change of pace while maintaining the explosiveness of Heavies. We’ll see you in the playlist!


====<big>Screenshot Spotlight: White</big>====

Last week, we turned the spotlight on classic maps. Take a gander at the following white screenshots, and maybe even find inspiration to make your own.

For your chance at being in the next spotlight, take a screenshot on Ragnarok and tag it with “Ragnarok” and “Halo Waypoint,” and maybe, just maybe, yours will be featured in the next Halo Bulletin!

Bravo
