Remember those freaky Spartans from yesterday, who participated in the Mummers Parade in Philly a few days ago? Well, it turns out they participated in the Mummers show that night – and won. I missed the transforming motorcycles the first time through… Thanks, PhillySpartan.(Louis Wu 21:39:28 UTC)

When Good Isn’t Good Enough
Minime637 pointed out an article over at IGN – a hardcore Halo fan discusses why, in his opinion, Halo 3: ODST doesn’t deserve the ‘Game of the Year’ title. Agree or not, the article is well-written; give it a look! (There’s a pretty lively discussion going on in our forum, as well.)(Louis Wu 13:36:56 UTC)

Games make you more powerful
hnc pointed out an academic article that looks at how our processing speed increases as we play video games (Halo gets a direct mention). It was published in Current Directions in Psychological Science (if you have a subscription, the article can be downloaded here), but it’s also available on the author’s website. Give it a read, and see how you get better with each overkill! (Louis Wu 13:36:02 UTC)

AH: Moar Ops!
Okay, so far, nothing has caught on fire. Yet.
I bring you yet another Spec Op vid from Modern Warfare 2, this is the more difficult “Breach & Clear” level. We’re jumping around a bit just because I cut them out of order before Geoff took off for Alabamaland.
