    Did you sign up for a free copy of ODST through Imagine Cup? I think they've been coming via UPS.

    Either that or it's a pair of hair clippers stamped FYRE-053.

    Well it should be easy to find out tommorow. Because the delivery is going to be attempted in the window of 10:30am to 5:00pm.

    :ups:

    Going to have to affix a note to our building's front door that says "HEY UPS GUY ITS OKAY TO COME UPSTAIRS AND KNOCK ON OUR DOOR"

    Then get murdered.

    Things I'd love to see in Reach but will never happen:
    1:Sprinting with the hammer and attacking would trigger a home run attack
    2:The ability to activate armor lock mid-air and crash into someone from above.
    3:Cozy Slayer, a gametype that involves snuggies, a fire, and cocoa.
    4:I wish chess was in the beta.

    I checked the details and it was shipped out from Redmond.

    Anyway, I put a note out saying to knock on my door because my doorbell sucks, and signed the slip of paper so they'll leave it if he is too fast to catch..

    Where are the options to change "Polite/Rowdy" or "Team player/Lonewolf"?

    I think he wants TBK to use his forum as a meeting point to organise games. He also wants you to make maps for him but is offering to let you credit them to TBK as compensation.

    I just got the latest copy of Edge through my door and there's a seven-page feature on the making of Combat Evolved - a subtitle which, apparently, was foisted on them by Microsoft. I'm going to enjoy digging into this.

    Yeah, Microsoft didn't feel that calling it 'Halo' would tell players enough about what the game actually was. By tacking on the "Combat Evolved" the logic was that people would know that it was an FPS.

    As if there was a single person in the world at that point in time who didn't know what Halo was.

    It still fucks me up when people call it Halo CE. I always immediately think there was some Collector's Edition I missed out on.

    It's even more confusing when the PC version is called Halo: Custom Edition.

    All Majora's Mask cartridges were gold. Collector's Edition carts had a holographic label.

    All Ocarina carts were gray. Collector's Edition carts were gold.

    No I guess I can see that, especially since every Zelda game since has been exactly the same with some new gimmick.

    I tend to agree with Mr. Bean. While Ocarina was by no means a bad game, it never quite clicked with me the same way that the 2D entries (and Twilight Princess) did.

    I dunno, it just never grabbed me and every Zelda game after has played exactly the same. I can't get into Okami either because it's a Zelda clone with amazing graphics.
