MLG Pwncast Ep 12
Those Pwncast guys are outta control. Episode 12 went up today; call-ins from New York, and the MLG competition held there this weekend. Go listen! (Louis Wu 19:00:24 UTC) (permalink)
Xena out, but not down
North Jersey Media Group has an article focusing on Bonnie Burton, who goes by Xena in Halo circles - the only girl to make the top 128 competitors at MLG New York. (Before anyone gets upset at 'girl', instead of 'woman'... Bonnie is 15.) It's interesting to see how much press MLG is getting these days - how fast pro gaming is catching on with mainstream news outlets - and it'll be more interesting to see if women continue to make inroads into the gaming ranks.

Newgrounds Halo Content
spartanerik found a side-scrolling Halo shooter at Newgrounds; I couldn't get the sword to work, but otherwise, its seems entertaining. While you're there, Shadowmotion found a movie called 'Resident Cactuar' which made me want 10 minutes back, but which has some Halo content. (Louis Wu 16:09:56 UTC) (permalink)
A writeup of Staten's NU talk
Tempus Fugit found a post on the TeamXbox Forums from someone who went to Joe Staten's talk at Northwestern on Saturday. Some interesting tidbits about Halo 2's ending (3 levels cut, not just one), some tidbits about the Halo movie (it won't be a story adaptation, a lot will be CG, no director yet), a tiny bit about E3 (or not). Go read! Update: DOH! I should check our own forum for this stuff... a few hours later, SleeperQ posted his own writeup. (Louis Wu 04:10:44 UTC) (permalink)
