Just a quick note to let folks know that we’ve received the early-bird entries for the contest and have chosen the ones we can haul across the country to the Fanfest this week. (Some of them are actually being delivered to HBO West, and won’t need hauling at all.) We’d just like to say that…

PC Halo – Revealed!
Wowowow. The promised Gamespy Halo PC article went online early this morning… and I’m still reeling. (There are actually two articles – the main one, and a separate one on the new multiplayer features available in the PC version.)

Timing
Well, Mythica’s back down to it’s standard 5 Mbit/sec serving rate, so the Birds spike is over; time for the NEXT movie. This one’s from Mister E, and it’s called ‘Timing’. The theme is exactly that – there are lots of ‘kill and then die’ sequences, with some very nice integration with the trance-like music.…
