:D Excellent – thanks! Personally, I like the extra degree of continuity better

than I like looking like another Yahoo customer.

Awesome news Doug Brooks! I hadn’t heard that yet. Thanks for the update.

I just told my husband your stop/mute button comment e house. He thought it was hysterical! Then he requested a real life feature like that. Jerk. ;)

not EXACTLY . . . but he’s talking about tossing boulders into a tractor beam . . . and then a door opening and bad things coming out of it. his comment about the girl came as a “this sequence was so scary that . . .” kind of thing.

i’m sure i’m not the only one of your readers that might enjoy your writing content and style (and attitude) in an audio format. besides, a luxury that we have, that your husband doesn’t, is a stop/mute button when we’ve had enough hawtness.

How interesting! Did he describe the same scenario, pulling a dead body towards him instead of a boulder? That would be hilariously awesome if it was me!

And there are no plans to podcast at this time. I don’t think you would want to hear me constantly saying stupid things anyways. :)

hey hawty,

This might be a longshot . . . but in the Joystiq podcast (PAX 2008 Special), 10:20 into it, Ross Miller (i think) talks about that very scenario you mention in your post where you jump with fright . . . and he mentions a girl behind him actually screaming . . . coincidence? Or did you just make an indirect appearance on the podcast?

Also, when are you going to start podcasting?

You know, thinking about darkness and Master Chief gets me thinking…

If he had a super powered-armor capable of lifting tanks and absorbing the fall from the upper atmosphere, digital readouts of allies, their health conditions, a motion sensor, an energy shield that could absorb effing bullets, a coating that was plasma resistant, weighed a ton but allowed him to jump rediculously high, allowed him to run at up to 50+ MPH….

So WHY THE FU** did they put the night/thermal vision on the fu**ing Sniper Rifle?? They gave him a dink-light. It’s like a flashlight, only it’s bulp is about 3 milimeters in circumference and it has a total illuminative distance of about 4 feet. What? They couldn’t afford to lace the visor with one more tiny iota of efficientcy?? Sorry, it just crossed my mind and I had to speak up.

Master Chief can see everything >8(

lol… anyways, the game looks great!
Why does his helmet look like that though?
Does he have 8 eyes?

Congrats on the website hits! If you had ads, you’d be rich! lol…
