Cheap tactics... Ben Evan Lewis writes to say that a Halo-themed comic has been posted at Shmuck the Kneerubber. Well, yeah, sorta... (Louis Wu 22:09:22 UTC) (permalink) 
Haloless Superbowl, mb No Halo Superbowl commercials? Lophan (who, for some bizarre reason, posted this on R.net instead of telling us), says that he's seen a list of major advertisers for Sunday's game... and Microsoft wasn't among them. Ah, well... guess we'll have to wait until Gamestock after all. (Or was that E3?) (Louis Wu 21:02:19 UTC) (permalink) 
That European thing... Interesting info from Maddog=RN= on our forum - surprised Wirehead didn't follow up on it. (He's like that, though.) Maddog says he's a tester for MS in Ireland... and hasn't seen any Xbox material at all yet. This may mean nothing - if there aren't any region-specific features of the Xbox, there's no need to use Irish beta-testers over US ones - but you never know. How far behind the US release will the European Xbox release be, finally (Q1 2002, as planned, or later?), and will this affect the PC/Mac releases? (We said no a month ago... but there is a real possibility that the PC and Mac versions could be finished about the time of the European Xbox rollout... how will MS handle this?)

Miscellaneous Art section updated Cortana in German? Huh. Ryan Wilcox submits an interesting picture to our Miscellaneous Art section... now if only I spoke Latin... (Louis Wu 04:16:18 UTC) (permalink)
