Bungie will "see you on Monday"

Microsoft's E3 press conference is shaping up very nicely, with Bungie all but confirming it's going to show Halo 3: ODST in the showcase on Monday in its weekly update.

Our E3 Strike Team is being deployed and confirmed fully operational. Some of the more astute among you have already had eyes on some of the groundwork that's already been laid to set the stage for their arrival. If you're scratching your helmet-less little head right now, head over to GameTrailers and get yourself briefed. You'll find a brief shot of some of the booth assets that frame what we'll be putting on display and a little nugget of information dropped by Tricia Helfer, the actress who plays Dare in Halo 3: ODST. (Actually, that is the nugget of information.)

For those who can't make it to Los Angeles to check out the coverage in person, don't worry, we'll save you a seat right here at Bungie.net. See you on Monday.

Lionhead confirmed itself for the presser yesterday, in addition.

Here that? It's the hardcore siren. Hit this for the E3 conference timings.
