That team is also working on a new online presence for the Halo franchise called Halo Waypoint. This world of Halo is billed as "a new destination for Halo fans on Xbox Live" and will offer multiple types of content, including behind-the-scenes videos, podcasts, trailers, and screenshots. It'll also have some sort of career system that sounds like it ties together your performance across all Halo games. This might be where you pipe up and say "hey, Bungie already does that." But since Bungie's not the only company out there doing Halo stuff anymore, it makes sense for Microsoft to put forth its own "destination." We'll have to wait and see if this falls on the "fancy web site" or "like PlayStation Home but with more space marines" side of things, but remember that back in April a job listing popped up looking for an engineer to build all of this stuff, and that listing specifically mentioned consoles, the web, and mobile devices. So expect Waypoint to be just about everywhere when it launches later this year.
