Major kudos to Bungie's Max Hoberman, who heard our pleas for a larger version of the screenshot released yesterday at halo.bungie.org and passed along the original, 640x480 version for those of you seeking a larger version of this great screenshot.

Almost makes me want a 640x480 monitor again. ;) Our thanks again to Max for this shot, and I hope you find it worth the download (the uncompressed versions look really, really good).
