Knee for All Webcam... sort of So KP's got a webcam, but the cord's not long enough to actually reach the room with the action... if there's overflow, you'll be able to see it on this page, but otherwise, we're out of touch. Gotta love preparation... (Louis Wu 18:06:17 UTC) (permalink) 
Knee For All Okay, that's it for updates today (at least from the east coast HBO staff contingent) - Miguel, Count Zero and I are joining a dozen others at KP's Knee For All lanfest, kicking off in about an hour. Ah, the beauty of Xbox carnage... (Louis Wu 14:13:31 UTC) (permalink) 
Halo Definitely on at CPL's Extreme Oops, missed it... two weeks ago, we posted a note about the possibility that Halo would be pulled from this summer's CPL Extreme World Championships for lack of attendance. Four days ago, rapture, of cooked Gamers, put up a message from Angel Munoz, president of the CPL, stating that the minimum 32 teams had been signed up, and that the competition was definitely on. (According to the message, registration closed yesterday.) Thanks to Narcogen, at Rampancy.net, for the heads-up on this. (Louis Wu 13:51:05 UTC) (permalink) 
Nostalgia can be fun Rampancy.net has used the recent Origins of Halo article on Bungie net to flesh out their Old Engine galleries, and they've dug the original Halo Announcement press release out of the Wayback Machine. Check out the details, and catch up on old history! (Louis Wu 11:37:50 UTC) (permalink) 
Baking cakes for others to eat 3Suns pointed out an article at Gamespy that suggests that Halo might be responsible for opening the door in Japan to First Person Shooters (a genre that has traditionally done poorly there). Give it a read! (Louis Wu 10:53:39 UTC) (permalink) 
Vultures with an attitude Very nice find by Ben Swinbanks... there's a new screenshot over at Bungie.net. MC... vs a pair of brand-new jackals. I'm guessing that in motion, that plastic-seeming look will just seem... mean. (And mean they look. Not friendly in the slightest.) (Louis Wu 01:51:55 UTC) (permalink) 
Diaper-Bulging Pant-Fillers! The Bungie Weekly Update can be found over in Bungie's own Underground forum. The Ghost stuff sounds especially tasty. Go read! (Frankie's artwork is here, in case it's not yet fixed by the time you read this.) (mnemesis 00:05:20 UTC) (permalink)
