The Weekly What's Update at Bungie.net is loosely packed with... stuff this week. Frankie says that Bungie's next project-- as yet still unnamed-- is generating tangible results:

The cool thing of course, is that we are very much in the world of HD flat panels alive with color and surprises. I can walk by a monitor now and see hard results. Animation. Lighting. Crazy new shader effects. Technical possibilities that boggle the mind. Occasionally, I will hear world-shaking noises coming from Marty's studio.

What is it? When will it come out? Still there's no date except "many, many moons from now" which is too vague even for GameStop.

In other stuff, there's another playlist update coming, as well as the Blow Me Away charity auction being done in conjunction with HBO.
