Xbox != PC, in plain english Bryan Kaufman sends in a pretty interesting link from The Enquirer, called "Inner Secrets of X-box Revealed". There's quite a bit of information from an anonymous Xbox developer - a goodly chunk of the technical points have been independently confirmed by Mat Noguchi in various posts on our forum, and it's nice to see it all in one place like this. Definitely worth a read, for anyone who thinks that 'the Xbox is just a PC with some custom stuff'. (Louis Wu 15:07:56 UTC) (permalink) 
Fan Fiction - incoming
"Jeneril, I come in piecess . . . no, peace, I mean . . ."
Omniscient's Sea of Steel saga climbs to chapter 10 - and non-lethal contact is made. You'll find it, and the other 9 chapters, in our Fan Fiction section. (Louis Wu 15:00:24 UTC) (permalink) 
Marty hasn't stopped screaming Musashi's Book of Five Rings? Matt's Weekly Halo Update has arrived... and Matt sounds in definitely better spirits. (He's also playing Halo, to the detriment of Update deadlines...) Lots of tweaks, several tantalizing tidbits... read it for yourself! (Louis Wu 01:21:33 UTC) (permalink) 
Rolling Stone screenshot scanned Thanks to Jesse Simko, who scanned in the new screenshot seen in a recent Rolling Stone issue... and to Stephen Laughlin, who pointed it out to us. (Pet peeve - and this isn't directed at Jesse, it's a general thing - if you run across a screenshot of Halo in a magazine, PLEASE - give more information about the location than 'the current issue'. There have been at least 4 threads discussing this Rolling Stone issue, and NOBODY has stated anything about the issue involved (beyond a mention of 'the issue with all the Nirvana interviews' - which still requires searching what's on the newsstand for content). Saying "The August 3rd issue of Newsweek, on Page 45" would be FAR more useful to others attempting to buy the magazine for scanning purposes.) (Louis Wu 00:41:48 UTC) (permalink)
