Feet First Into Mouth. Stuntmutt makes it clear in today's One One Se7en that if you're going to be punny, be sure you know your audience. (Louis Wu 20:50:35 UTC) (permalink)
Wednesday Reading Seven new pieces in the Fan Fiction section today. Too late for lunchtime reading... unless you're on the US west coast. (Louis Wu 19:15:14 UTC) (permalink)
It's still pretty cold, though. Hehe - Jim Shorts pointed out some photos showing a bunch of guys (presumably waiting to buy 360s last week) playing Halo 2 on the side of a Best Buy. Now THAT might make the time go faster! (Louis Wu 18:16:39 UTC) (permalink)
Halo for cheap - in the UK Over in the UK, it looks like Halo 2 has been released as an 'Xbox Classic' (similar to the US 'Platinum' category?), and is selling for £16.99 (just under $30 US). That's better than the US Amazon price of $33.95... though it wouldn't pay to order from the UK, for a few reasons; it's PAL, for one, so it won't play in the standard NTSC Xbox, and the shipping would easily swamp your savings anyway. For UK Halo players, though, it's a great deal! Thanks, Ross Mills. Update: Thanks to 3of9, who pointed out that here in the US, you can buy Halo 2 from Wal-Mart for just $17.82. Beat that, ya brits!

More Pie.... mmmm GameDaily has a My Turn column (written by Chance Thomas, a composer who's worked on games like King Kong, X-Men, and Lord of the Rings), discussing how the videogame soundtrack is an underexploited market. Halo is held up as a shining example - go Marty! (Louis Wu 18:06:14 UTC) (permalink)
Legendary Walkthrough: The Arbiter UNSCDF has put up a legendary walkthrough of The Arbiter - it's the fourth level they've posted. Check it out! (Louis Wu 15:26:16 UTC) (permalink)
