Life Post-Halo

So I finished Halo 3 the other day. Now what to do? Good question. Microsoft must have asked that very same question because they are releasing a new Halo game: Halo Wars. An RTS done by Ensemble Studios, who also did Age of Empires (Rise of Rome), which is one of my all time favorite games.

Michelin Super-G: Conclusion

This image has been in the ‘misc’ folder on my desktop for a while now - I think someone sent it trough IM (but who?). Its a pic by photographer Alex Brown, who does some really nice work.
Fuji Rock Festival Japan

Fuji Rock is the festival I’ve been wanting to go to for quite a few years now - and not just because they’ve named it after our cat. It looks like in 2008 we’re finally going. Monacle has a short film on Fuji Rock here - thank you Hakan for the link.
