Bungie Jumping does Hamish Mojo reminded us that we'd forgotten his comic site, Bungie Jumping, in our links round-up yesterday. Heh... his latest comic pokes fun at a pillar of the fan community... stop by and take a look! (Bungie Jumping has been added to the Funnies section of our Links page, as well. Sorry, Mojo.)

Gamecenter talks to Xbox Tech Director Gamecenter.com interviewed Seamus Blackley, director of the Xbox Advanced Technology Team, about where Microsoft sees themselves fitting into the console market. GC: How confident are you about Microsoft's foray into console gaming? S. B.: We try to put 300 percent into everything we do. We're here until 10 p.m. every night. I'm never home. We have this feeling that we're coming from behind and we have to get everything right. We're always second-guessing ourselves because we need to get everything right for the worldwide launch next year. We have a great team, a great console and a great game lineup for Xbox. We think about the gamer who walks into the store and buys an Xbox and thinks, "Why am I happy I bought an Xbox?" Then we think of it as a business model.
The HBO spin: Microsoft is aware of the tenuousness of their position... there's a lot riding on the success of this platform. For us, here, if the Xbox fails, we could care less about Microsoft's loss... but what happens to Bungie?Thanks to BGH for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 02:19:22 UTC) (permalink) 
HBO News Archive finally made functional Thanks to all the folks who've told us how broken our news archive is... it's been fixed. Not only that, but searching has gotten easier. You can still use the search box on this front page... or you can jump over to the archive and grab a particular day, or a particular month. Finding old news was never so easy!
