After technical problems, MLG prepares for Columbus
Major League Gaming is hoping to give you uninterrupted streaming of MLG Columbus. Forbes blogger Paul Tassi sat down with Sundance DiGiovanni, co-founder of the professional gaming league, to talk about the increased popularity of MLG and the technical problems from Dallas. To prepare for the increased traffic, the league has teamed up with Streamworks, the company responsible for the royal wedding stream, to deliver a 720p stream directly from the website. MLG Columbus takes place June 3 through 5.(Hitmonchan 19:09:38 UTC)

All’s Well that Ends – OUCH! (Pics Galore)
Last weekend, a rather large LAN event was held at HBO HQ – 33 people participated. Some of them were Bungie employees. There haven’t been any text writeups yet (I’m still planning on doing one), but a huge number of photographs were taken over the weekend, and we’ve put up a gallery page for some of these. Swing by and check out the festivities! Update: nof steps up to the plate and serves up the first actual writeup. Nice one, nof. (The Subaru story is a lie. I would never drive and watch a video above, say, 60mph.)(Louis Wu 17:52:47 UTC)

Running a bit late this morning – sorry. Black Six noticed yet another update to Isaac Hannaford’s blog – check out the Sabre concept art! This one started in 2D, but was mocked up in 3D because he wanted to be sure the model held up from all angles.(Louis Wu 16:36:39 UTC)
