Ok, I have a lot of Halo 3 news.
1. Heroic Map Pack is Free!
The Heroic Map Pack (containing Foundry, Standoff, and Rat's Nest) is free as of March 25th. Go over to the Marketplace and download it.
2. Legendary Map Pack out April 15th
The Legendary Map Pack is coming out this spring.
Ghost Town

A new map, could be great, or it could be awful.
Avalanche
http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13382
LAN-party Halo CE players will rejoice at this remake of Sidewinder.
Blackout
http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=13413
This is the one Halo 2 players have screamed for (myself included).
Another 800 MS Points. From what I've seen it's more bang for your buck than the Heroic Map Pack.
3. Spriggs
Special Delivery Part A
Special Delivery Part B
If you're confused, you may want to watch the earlier episodes.
NON-HALO 3 NEWS
1. The Call of Duty 4 new maps are coming out on the 1st of April. One is a remake of Carentan for Call of Duty 2, now called Chinatown.

Spriggs Number 7
New Spriggs vid. I'm sorry for the absence, I was in Florida :) Also, I've decided to not do the site - I'll post reviews here.

Spriggs finally new video! :-)
Spriggs: Unloaded
Oh joy!
Another machinima to check out on Youtube is Deus Ex Machina, created by Digital Ph33r, of "Master Chief Sucks at Halo" fame.
I've noticed that in recent sci-fi games humanity is not exactly doing well. Halo features the human race being totally obliterated by Covenant, and Mass Effect puts humans in a position where everyone ignores them and doesn't trust them fully.
Wait, I'll get back to this some other time.

EA VS FOX
Wow. Three posts in one day.
Fox news recently had an interview with so-called "psychologist" Cooper Lawrence and Geoff Keighley, who actually played video games. Anyone who has watched this and played Mass Effect instantly knows almost everything they said is false. Well, at lest what Cooper said.
"Have you ever played Mass Effect?" - Geoff
"No." - Interviewer
See the problem? The story can be found here [link] and the video will either make you laugh or get real angry (as it did me). (If you scroll down to comment 17 mine's there)
EA was shrugged of by Fox, and are now filing for lawsuit. [link] My comment is number 26.
A petition is now going around. At the time of writing 92 people already have signed it, and it's been up for only a couple of hours.
Story of petition - [link]
Petition itself - [link]
If you want Fox News to actually properly review things and you hate games being the scapegoat SIGN PLEASE.

Last day of semester one classes. Joy! The entire extent of my day was just floor hockey and a small practical part of my science exam, of which I'm not exactly overjoyed about.
I've come to the conclusion that common sense is no longer common (half of you are probably going (if there is anyone reading this) "Duh! I already knew that"). What would you do if your knuckles on one hand were cut and bleeding? Bandage it? Disinfect it? Wipe the blood off?
What about putting your knuckles on a desk and have someone flick a quarter into it?
...
That's possibly one of the stupidest things you've ever heard. But it happened, and in the form of a game. A fucking game. How stupid can one get? Would you do that? And I love how everyone can watch it without caring, laughing when quarter dug into the flesh. Stupidity!!!

So my first exam, English, was completed today. Easier than I had expected. My real problem is math. And science is going to be a bitch to study for. So many things to remember! Ugg...
And remember to download Undertow in the Marketplace.
