"More Than Three Teams" Working On Halo Games

1Up reports on comments by Phil Spencer, head of Microsoft Game Studios, which indicated that several different teams are working on Halo projects at the moment. Quoting: "When GamesIndustry.biz then pointed out that it puts the Age of Empires franchise in a similar position as Halo after Bungie departed from their partnership with Microsoft, that's when Spencer dropped this intriguing tidbit: 'Well, there's more than one team building Halo games right now. There are more than two or three teams building Halo things right now. Some of them we will own, some of them we won't. It's never been, for me, about who you own or don't own — it's about working with the best creative talent in the industry,' he said."

Facebook poll conducted by Best Buy Canada shows men and women are serious about video games; what they play and for how long >> TORONTO, Oct. 17 /CNW/ - Video games or sex?

A recent survey of Torontonians conducted by Facebook on behalf of Best Buy Canada on October 9th, showed that while 29 per cent of women would rather give up sex for a month than video games, only 19 per cent of men would do the same.

Sisley in England and Wales

Alfred Sisley is best known for being the only French Impressionist that England ever produced, or so people say. In fact, he was born in Paris, lived in France all his life and his parents seem to have been more French than the French, so his Englishness seems a mere technicality. But Sisley does have another distinction - or, rather, its opposite - in that he is what you might call the all-round general Impressionist. He does the style more doggedly, more consistently and more tamely than any other artist and almost to the point of parody.

Linux Supports More Devices Than Any Other OS

Linux Blog recommends an interview up on the O'Reilly site with Greg Kroah-Hartman, long-time Linux kernel hacker and the current Linux kernel maintainer for the USB driver core. He updates the free Linux driver program announced almost two years ago, which has really caught traction now with more than 300 developers volunteering. The interviewer begins by asking about Kroah-Hartman's claim that the Linux kernel now supports more devices than any other operating system ever has. "[One factor is] the ease of writing drivers; Linux drivers are at normally one-third smaller than Windows drivers or other operating system drivers. We have all the examples there, so it's trivial to write a new one if you have new hardware, usually because you can copy the code and go.

It was supposed to be an easy three points and therefore goal difference was the key - and so is the plus three a good enough return from a game that was as easy as it had been forecast?

I'm not sure just what purpose the league games serve in the CL pre-Christmas stage. Is it to weed out all the teams that the European hierarchy deem 'weak', or should we say, 'not profitable enough', so the knockout stages can actually start filling grounds? Is it just a money generator in terms of the TV rights, and I guess by default, a way to ensure the safe passage of the 'big' teams? Whatever, it serves little purpose to ourselves who although we've gained three points and a plus three goal difference, have lost two players who are key to further success.
