Halo 3 is out and I'm a proud owner... WOOHOO!!!

Because I'm supposed to be working on PD today, I can't exactly play it can I...?

So I've started it up "for my sister" to see. I must say, it looks a lot nicer than Halo 2.

Color is great. Loading screens have been re-jigged and look so cool. And the videos don't look like something is moving in front of a poorly pixilated background.

First impressions are all good. Now I just have to get the controller away from my sister so I can have a bash at it and "finish the fight"... :)

Thanks Andrew Matthews for pointing me to this one. I also knew I was a nerd, but not this bad...

This is nuts. I've never been able to watch someone play tetris for 6 minutes straight until today.

I found this on Larry Osterman's blog. I was impressed in the first 10 seconds, but thought it started to trail a bit after 2 minutes. But once it hit 3 minutes the speed kicked up to "You gotta be friggin' nuts!"

At about 5 minutes the credits start rolling and all the blocks become invisible, but this guy keeps going.

Utterly Insane.

Microsoft have announced a new step in the Media Centre Extender push and have renamed it Extenders for Windows Media Center. What's so exciting about this...? Well, they've finally done what everyone has been asking (and praying) for many many year... Added DivX and Xvid support!!!

Woohoo!!!

What else is new? The partners will be releasing in the near future a lienup of DVD players, TVs, and other electrical devices with the software built straight in, which means you don't need another box next to your TV... Nice... :)
