New Fan Fiction available PrisonGuy writes: Enclosed is a piece of fiction I made. (It isn't finished, and never will be. I have lost heart in a former cool company, and never will touch a product from the great satan.) Enjoy.
You can find it on our Fan Fiction Page. (It's called "The Loss.") Thanks, PG! (Louis Wu 22:36:31 UTC) (permalink) 
Wallpaper page updated Thanks to Robert Chrzanowski, who sent in a new Desktop image for our Wallpaper page. It came in in TIFF format, but if that image is too big for you, you can snag a high-quality JPEG. Thanks, Robert! (Louis Wu 22:32:54 UTC) (permalink) 
Microsoft to Spend $500 Million on Xbox Marketing Microsoft to Spend $500 Million on Xbox Marketing. According to a news report on PlanetXbox Microsoft will spend half a billion dollars in marketing their Xbox console system in an effort to out perform Sony, Nintendo, and Sega in sales. According to Robbie Bach, senior vice president of Microsoft's games division, this will be Microsoft's biggest launch yet. The Xbox hardware design is now complete and they are now building the form factors. Microsoft now has about 30 games, including Halo, which will either launch with Xbox or be released shortly afterwards.
