Your Hair Falls… Now
dCon V noticed an article on Kotaku (and mendicantbias00 let us know about a similar one on Joystiq) about a rather odd marketing promotion – Microsoft is sending out Reach-branded hair clippers in a fancy case. (I guess the idea is that all you need to be a Spartan is a shaved pate…)(Louis Wu 16:35:20 UTC)
