Hide, Seek, Snap – Really? You’re stumped?
Folks STILL haven’t come up with a solution for the latest Hide, Seek, Snap image – so we’ve added a second clue. And we’ve had word from the first Round 10 winner that Sgt. Johnson codes do, in fact, still work, even though the original cards said that they’d expire on January 31 – so reproduce our screen, and win your own!(Louis Wu 15:21:19 UTC)

Tank – load the jump program.
Nevan stopped in to let us know about a video created in Battlefield: Bad Company 2 – it looks like Warthog Launching is back! (Well, sort of; they’re not actually Warthogs, but the physics allows for some great backseat flying.) Take a look.(Louis Wu 14:07:49 UTC)

AH: Bioshock 2: Log-o-rhythms
Happy Humpday everyone,
Let’s start the day right with some Bioshock 2 audio log videos. The first video was uploaded yesterday afternoon, and covers all 8 logs found in Atlantic Express Depot. (Which is larger than seven, sources tell me.)
And hot off the webernets, Ryan Amusements’ 19 Audio Logs are readily available for your consumption.
And if you’re late to the party and need to catch up on the first level, I’ve got a handy dandy link for you below:

RT: New Feature for Sponsors
Hey guys we’re rolling out a new feature for sponsors today. Now sponsors will be able to upload videos and maintain a video gallery along with their image gallery. All videos will have to be approved before going live, so don’t go crazy uploading that midget porn just yet. Once we hammer out all the bugs with this feature we’re going to go into another feature lock period where we will re-examine the existing site and pinpoint where slowdowns occur and try to speed up the site to everyone’s satisfaction. We hope you enjoy the video gallery!

Podtacular 214: Multiplayer Tips for Security Zone and Windward
Download | Shownotes
Releasing this episode on schedule for once. GLewis is absent this week. Apparently, he didn’t know we were recording, but alas. Brent and I held down the fort as we read your submissions and rambled on about the Halo 2 and XBOX Live announcement. It was a pretty fluid show without GLewis, which may say something. Enjoy.
