Koethe, from the MjR37 Team, wrote to say that Episode 2 of their series, Species, is now available for download from Mythica.org. QuickTime format, 14 minutes, 37 mb.

Best Of The Worst
1Up.com obviously didn’t get enough Bungie in their “three weeks of Halo 3” coverage, because now the company is getting a mention again– this time for Marathon. Unfortunately, it’s not a flattering mention. Marathon 2 is featured in their Best Worst Ads 3 feature, on page six, which shows their ad from 1996 that compares…
