Taken from:Photo Giddy's Flickr photostreamLooks like Bungie is up to something again and we haven\’t seen the last of the Halo franchise. According to reports at joystiq.com there was supposedly a E3 announcement canceled by Bungie’s publisher Microsoft regarding the upcoming release of a new “Halo” game. Bungie president Harold Ryan wrote this memo recently regarding his disappointment:

For the last several months, we’ve been building toward a reveal of something exciting that Bungie is working on. We were looking forward to sharing that with our fan community during the week of E3. However, those plans were just changed by our publisher. We realize that many of our fans are disappointed by this turn of events; members of the Bungie team share that disappointment. When the right time comes, we look forward to sharing this exciting announcement with you. Until then, we appreciate your continued support and patience.

I have seen the official site for Halo Wars and read rumors about Peter Jackson’s upcoming Halo Chronicles, but this is actually the first news I’ve read about a new “Halo” release coming. Hopefully this means another first person shooter. I love my FPS games.

A lot of people are turning to free games in the wake of the recession. With PS3 games not cutting the list of necessities people are turning to cheaper forms of entertainment. More and more people are playing free action games online instead of paying for entertainment.

Halo2 Party

Its been awhile since I’ve had time to sit down and blog. Actually its been awhile since I’ve had time to do anything really recreational. I had grades to finish and work started up again this past Tuesday. Yesterday, I finally had a day to do nothing so I gathered the guys for a Halo2 party at the house. I used to be a very hardcore gamer, but since I finished college its been tough to put in the time to get really good at any game. I used to get whooped playing the original Halo because I just didn’t have time to practice.

Things have changed a bit since then. After taking a serious beating with Halo, I made time to get decent at Halo2.

Last night I actually placed pretty good during our Free For All Battles and during Team Slayer I actually won quite a few metals. Girls love them metals! LOL. We started at noon and ended at midnight. I was exhausted and a bit drunk by the time the party was over. We also played some games online using xbconnect and that was pretty fun except that it lagged pretty badly and some of the regular clans gave us good beatings. Athough we lost those matches, we fought like men till the last life was taken. I think in time our team of 6 will win more games.

This was the first time I hosted a party and Im sure it wont be the last. Hey N8 Dogg! Watch out Screen LOOKER! muwhahahaha.
