There is a video surfacing on the net from a beauty pageant held sometime in the 80′s (which will become clear when you see the hair and outfit). This woman’s “talent” is blowing the theme from Star Wars on a trumpet, but she sucks so bad, I could blow the Star Wars theme on my husband’s you-know-what better than that. I guess you could say she sucks and blows at once.
I think it’s pretty damn funny kids, so check it out. At 1:34 she even starts dancing!
I’ve played a game or two with Louis Wu before, and he seems like a really nice guy. I am, however, rather pissed off at him and his legions of fanboys today, because they attacked a bunch of Italian shop workers and accused them of possibly “Leaking” Halo 3 information. Dorks. One of the HBO fanboy dorks went net surfing and found this pic on some Italian Gaming forum and immediately reported it to Wu, who put it on his front page and posted this statement:
When Shipping Departments Screw Up
nashhousewares found a thread on an Italian forum with some pictures that, if they’re what they look like, do NOT bode well for keeping Halo 3 secrets until launch day. We’re looking into this – but if it turns out to be what it looks like, I’m thinking we’ll probably close the forum down for 3 weeks. Starting… really soon. Stay tuned.
“We’re looking into this”. Which means he went running to his buddies at Bungie, who then went running to Microsoft Game Studios, who then probably got these poor fucks in a lot of trouble for posing in some innocent picture. Because as it turns out, those are simply the empty boxes they are going to use for display purposes around the store.
I went back to the Italian site where this pic was originally posted, and the pic was removed with this message:
means that these guys not only got falsely accused of being, as one HBO regular called them, “Italian Pirates”, had their faces and gamertags plastered all over the internet, and got investigated by Microsoft, they also had their fucking server crash from all the HBO dorks hitting them up.
Mama Mia!
I heard this was coming, but I didn’t know when, and I guess deep down I thought it was just a fanboy rumor on HBO. Pepsi has made a Halo 3 version of Mountain Dew, and it’s starting to hit the shelves in America now.Mountain Dew is a great soft drink, but it’s loaded with caffeine (and some heavy drugs I’m convinced), one bottle of it has as much caffeine as like 4 cups of coffee. I once drank 2 of them back to back and couldn’t sleep for 3 days.Pepsi describes H3 Mountain Dew as “Dew With An Invigorating Blast Of Citrus Cherry Flavor”. That’s just what the typical Halo player needs, a blast of Citrus Cherry Flavor. These kids are already hyper as it is, now they are really going to sound like a bunch of rats on crack.
So here is GamingTalkHQ’s article on this (never heard of them until now). They also have pictures of the bottle, which of course is adorned with pictures of the Master Chief. What’s next? Halo 3 toothpaste? Halo 3… never mind.
