Starting today, Xbox 360 owners will be able to visit Halo Waypoint, a new destination on Xbox LIVE, and the “virtual home for all things Halo.”

Not only will Halo Waypoint act as a ‘career’ tracking system, recording players’ achievements across Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST and Halo Wars, you’ll also be rewarded for accomplishing certain feats in the games with extra Xbox LIVE Avatar content, such as virtual shirts and ODST armour.

Halo Waypoint will also be the place to hear all of the latest Halo related news, and get access to all of the latest trailers, developer interviews, documentaries and screenshots, including fan-created content.

To kick things off, Halo Waypoint will play host to a full-episode preview of the first episode of the Halo Legends anime series, entitled ‘The Babysitter,’ followed by previews of the remaining episodes in the collection of short films in the coming weeks, with exclusive behind-the-scenes looks at the production of each episode.

Here’s a quick list of Halo Waypoint’s content highlights for the next few weeks:
