Eric Nylund - Up Close(r) with the Fans Eric Nylund has set up a blog - swing by to keep in touch with the author of two (soon to be three) Halo novels! You can contact him directly via an email link available on his profile page. (Don't abuse this, please - I'd hate it if we lost this opportunity because some fans were a bit too enthusiastic...) (Louis Wu 15:43:45 UTC) (permalink)
WikiRiot Ep 5 (both of 'em) WikiRiot has two separate podcasts today - gestor and LegendaryMark created 005A while at the Clan of Bobs LAN, and Brathnok did 005B by himself (he didn't make it to the LAN). Almost an hour between the two - go listen! (Louis Wu 15:10:18 UTC) (permalink)
He's Suffering? Against all logic, One One Se7en has reached a mind-boggling 500 strips. (We're not counting Sundays, holidays, guest strips, or the short-lived Archive.) After reading this one, you'll wonder... HOW? (It's a little like lichen - it can live in really hostile environments with almost no nutrition.) (Louis Wu 13:40:13 UTC) (permalink)
MLG PwnCast Ep 18: Goose Version MLG PwnCast has released Episode 18, summarizing MLG Anaheim. 5.5-13.4 mb, depending on the version you grab. (Just under 12 minutes, so it shouldn't kill your day.) Go listen! (Louis Wu 13:05:40 UTC) (permalink)
Halo and Terrorism Heh - a newspaper article in the Halifax, Nova Scotia Chronicle Herald was picked up by Kotaku, where it was seen by MereCatFish; Kotaku and most of the posters in Mere's thread seem to see this as yet another example of the media vilifying video games as potential causes for all sorts of ills (in this case, the Halo-obsessed individual is Zakaria Amara, the alleged ringleader of a group accused of plotting terror attacks in Ontario). I read it slightly differently, though (looks like Cunbelin and My Liege see this spin, as well); the guy didn't start messing with terrorism until HE QUIT PLAYING HALO. In other words: Halo has the potential to keep you out of trouble! I hear it'll make your hair grow back, too. (Louis Wu 12:27:23 UTC) (permalink)
