N is for Ninjaburger

RT: Polar Bears and Ice Fishing and shit
So the weather forecast for Park City, Utah (Sundance), is fuuucking cold. I don’t care how many drunk celebrities he’s partying with, I don’t envy Nathan one bit as he freezes his ass off showing his film in those sub-arctic conditions. What the hell was…

Got your nose

Master Chief would play secondary role in Halo movie
N’Gai at Level Up has an amazing interview with Bungie writer Joe Staten. In it was this gem: “Over time I think everybody around the table agreed that the Master Chief is best left as the most important supporting cast member.” Supporting cast member? This revelation has certainly changed my expectations for the movie (not…

Cool web game. Line Rider meets Super Mario Brothers meets Web 2.0
I was surfing along the web and noticed that Kongregate.com won a Crunchie. “CEO Jim Greer describes Kongregate as XBox live for casual games. This site hosts some of the webs most addictive casual games. Remember Desktop Tower Defense? Moreover, the games are not only played by users, but also created by them in exchange…

Tiberium trailer – homage, or just laziness?
Heh – Kotaku thinks that EA’s Tiberium trailer takes more than a little inspiration from the Halo 2 Announcement Trailer (yeah, the August 2002 one). Decide for yourself!(Louis Wu 14:59:30 UTC)

Jerome is King.
Last night’s Bungie Weekly Update was added to our Weekly Update Archive very quickly – but there was no chance to come back and put up a news post. It’s absolutely worth a read – not just because it talks about upcoming tweaks to online gameplay, or describes the new maps in reasonable detail, or…
