Yucatan, huh? Hope the parachute drop goes better this time.
Frankie's weekly update has popped up at VideoGames.co.nz. It's a pretty long one this time, and with tons of nice tidbits and numbers- Gameplay animations are 95% complete, there's 4.1 gigabytes of audio dialog assets, and... pocky? Sure, why not. Check it out! (Count Zero 22:16:27 UTC) (permalink)
Downtime
Just a quick note - I'm going to be mostly out of touch for the next few days. I'll do my best to catch up on off hours, and Count Zero MIGHT be able to fill in a bit... but if you submit content, and it doesn't go up right away, don't freak out, it just means we haven't gotten there yet. Thanks! (Louis Wu 15:17:01 UTC) (permalink)
You Got Served
cykage posted a vid made by Rippon, showing some... odd dancing styles. Brian Towne mirrored it at Mythica, so bandwidth shouldn't be a problem. 22 mb, WMP9 format. There's a QuickTime version, as well... because, well, we like Macs. (Louis Wu 15:16:00 UTC) (permalink)

Playable Halo 2 in London in September
It looks like London denizens will get a chance to play some Halo 2 next month, at the Gamestars Live event at the ExCeL facility. Tickets can be purchased from the Gamestars Live website, and the press release can be read at XboxRules.com (thanks, Walchicus). First notice of this came from Dark G, yesterday, though the information itself was nearly drowned out by the flamewar that erupted over the idea that the playable material might be single-player. Thanks also to broony, who pointed out an article at MyXbox. Details about WHAT will be playable don't exist yet - but an educated guess would be the Zanzibar level.

Today's Halo Babies strip finally reveals the face of the Baby that MC's been trying to save. It may surprise you. (Louis Wu 09:00:17 UTC) (permalink)
NZ to see Halo 2 first
B ball master wrote gleefully to point out that The Gamesman (a New Zealand gameseller) is reporting that the November 9th release date for Halo 2 has been confirmed for New Zealand - which means that a kiwi will be the first consumer on the planet to officially get their hands on a copy.
