Whoa – the Myth Total Soundtrack CD acronym has been solved! (Okay, okay, not really Halo news… but the search for acronyms has occupied our forum periodically recently, so maybe this’ll spur attacks on the two new ones – the Halo GotY one (ABTFIPAS05) and the Halo Soundtrack one (SABABWL).) In any case, drop by…

Last week, MacGamer put up a feature called ‘MacGamer’s Gaming “It” List’ – what’s cool and what’s lame in the world of Mac Gaming. Bungie made the list – twice.
