The Halo graphic novel is out in hardback. Amazon’s not selling it yet, but EB has it online and in the brick & mortar stores.

You’ve probably seen this all over by now. Best of luck, Sony.

Clive Barker is working on a new squad-based horro game. The premise sounds interesting, a few special forces guys with arcane training running through a cursed evil city to stop ultimate evil.
I, for one, loved Undying. It’s really my favorite single player FPS experience. Let’s hope this sells better, though.

They will have flying mounts as part of the Burning Crusade expansion. Now you can go anywhere with your fancy mount, although they will apparently be pretty rare. Check out the Nether Drake. I have to admit that those things look pretty darn cool.

This service keeps looking better to me, espescially now that it’s ten bucks a month. Only a few games are getting multiplayer, but it’s a start. The TV will include some of my Cartoon Network favorites (Jonny Bravo and Dexter’s Lab are worth the price of admission right there).
With that and a chance for the Sam & Max game to be good (fingers crossed; the Bone games have been less than impressive), I think I’m overdue to sign up. I can’t miss out on “the one Zaxxon game I ever missed” and Kolibri, arguably the finest hummingbird based shooter available for the 32x.
