PAX Begins, Coverage Slows
And... that's it for me today. PAX starts in a few hours, and it's time to get moving! Enjoy your Friday, there are still some HBO folks on duty if you have news, I think. (We'll certainly have a wrap-up article or two, but I'm not bringing a laptop to the show.) If you're IN Seattle, check out the schedule for the Bungie Booth. Tons of activities!

Ghost
Tony 'ubald' Marcotte sent word of another new render he's done - this one is a gorgeous shot of a ghost, riding off into a sunset. Go check it out in the gallery we've set up for him here! (Louis Wu 16:23:56 UTC) (permalink)
Halo 3-based Bible Study
Here's one of the more unique uses of the Halo 3 lobby I've ever seen. TruthPastor SBG holds a pair of bible study classes on Monday nights, for his clan members (and anyone else interested) - obviously, only fifteen other people can participate in a single lobby at once, but in fact he's run a pair of Xboxes, with a pair of mics, to bring together 31 people total (15 slots per box, plus his own presence). If you're interested, they have a web page with information. Halo 3-enabled bible study... who'da thunk it? (Louis Wu 16:01:01 UTC) (permalink)
Weta's Cortana up for preorder now
Weta's taking preorders on their Cortana Statue - $225 US, with the statue actually shipping 2nd quarter 2009. As an incentive for tying up your money for the next 6-9 months, they're entering all preorders before September 30 into a drawing - win the drawing, and you might be flown down to Weta Studios and given a ride in the Warthog they built. (You can enter the sweepstakes WITHOUT preordering - full details are on the Sweepstakes page - but they'll do it for you if you commit to buying something.) (Louis Wu 15:16:55 UTC) (permalink)
