We were contacted by Jeffrey Kuznekoff, a doctoral student at Ohio University who’s working on a research project with Dr. Andrew Ledbetter (Ohio University). They’re looking at how gamers use multiplayer gaming systems to communicate. They’d love your help! Here’s the blurb: We are conducting a study examining how people communicate through multiplayer video games…

More photo coverage of Thursday night’s ODST event in Sydney, Australia – Davis ‘BlueDingo5′ Beutler sent us a few dozen shots he snapped at the event (great detail on the Weta Warthog), and PC World (an Australian tech mag) put up a batch of their own. Check ’em out – looks like it was a…

Hawty McBloggy’s back with another round of Friday Caption Fun – check out witty submissions for last week’s picture, and make up your own for this week’s!(Louis Wu 12:08:37 UTC)

Bungie’s Breaking In story this week went live last night – Sam Arguez, Associate Producer, discusses where he came from, how he got to Bungie, and why he’s stayed. (And what he does, of course.) Wanna work for Bungie? This series is a great resource.(Louis Wu 12:04:07 UTC)

This week’s Double XP Weekend Playlist has gone live… and while it’s a list we’ve seen before (Grifball), there are far, far more options this time around than you might be used to. Four different gametypes, on 6 different Grifball maps – go read about it on Bungie.net, or just get online and play!(Louis Wu…
