Bad news from the E3 floor?
Whoa - weird news from SonicStorm, of Battleground: Halo...
I spent about an hour looking for ANYONE from Bungie yesterday, but didn't see a soul. I was at E3 all day, and...nothing. Anyways, I asked the Microsoft people and they said Bungie isn't presenting anything at all, and don't have any setups, but they could be found at Developer Row in booth 5113 on the Concourse (long hallway between South and West halls). So I find the booth (finally) and lo and behold, the people there tell me that the Bungie guys were never there, and that all they're here for is to wander the show floor aimlessly.
No announcements? No Phoenix, no Halo (PC/2/Online)? I'm gonna cry... (Louis Wu 22:56:44 UTC) (permalink)
Bungie pics
More Bungie trivia - deanero got a bunch of pics of Bungie employees at E3 - if you ever wondered what some of these folks look like, here's your chance. (Louis Wu 22:53:17 UTC) (permalink)
Images for your eyes
Two new desktops - one based on our friend the Hunter, the other not strictly a Halo desktop at all (it's a Seventh Column desktop), but cool nonetheless. Both can be found in our Wallpaper section. (Louis Wu 19:32:59 UTC) (permalink)
Disturbing lack of news
Hmm... here it is, 10:30 in the morning (Pacific Time) on the second day of E3... and not a peep from ANY Bungie fan or employee about what's coming from Bungie! What's up with that? (We even have some b.org personnel at the expo... but not the smallest report from them!) Could it be that Bungie has nothing to announce this week? If that were true, why is a huge chunk of the Bungie staff in LA at all? (Well, yes, there's a Fanfest coming up on Friday... but that doesn't explain the folks that deanero saw yesterday...) I'll be in LA tomorrow, and may find out for myself what's going on, but in the meantime, I'm a little confused. (Louis Wu 17:39:00 UTC) (permalink)
E3, day 1, through a fan's eyes
deanero posted a brief but mouthwatering rundown of his first day at E3 - lots of Bungie personnel sightings, followed by some very fun-sounding Halo lanfesting, also involving Bungie employees. Who says gaming companies don't enjoy mixing with their fans? (Louis Wu 13:08:21 UTC) (permalink)
Forum adjustments...
Forum changes - our forum has recently been changed over to run on style sheets - this drastically reduces the amount of text needed to render the page. (On the main index, the savings can be in the hundreds of kb per load...) The downside is that those with large monitors might have trouble reading the new default font size. Luckily, you're not stuck with the default - head to the Preferences section of the forum, and you'll find you can change the size to something that might work better for you. Comments are always welcome, though time is rather tight at the moment; changes might not be instant, if you suggest something. (Louis Wu 13:05:49 UTC) (permalink)
