For thos following the TRON Legacy / Flynn Lives viral campaign, today was a big day. The "fictitional" video game Space Paranoids from the original TRON movie was brought to life today via an online version at Space Paranoids Online. Now you can obliterate Recognizers, tanks and turrets in full 3-D (circa 1986) glory.

So it has been a while since I posted my last Tron Legacy / Flynn Lives update. A week or so ago there was a flurry of new activity as several new clues were leaked in the viral campaign being produce by 43 Entertainment in support of the upcoming TRON sequel.

Sorry for taking up two spots in the Blog Banner (I typically try not to do that), but I came across this comic from Stunnit over at Bungie.or and wanted to share it with you. Enjoy.

Well, thanks to my position as a part-time employee with an unamed video game retailer, I was able to score a Halo Reach Beta code today. As some of you who follow my Twitter feed may know, I refused to succumb to the pressure to purchase ODST as a means of participation in the Beta as a matter of principle. I strongly feel that requiring fans of a genre to buy a (substandard) game at a cost of $60 just to be able to participate in a highly anticipated beta program is not only misuses the enthusiasm of the community, but it sets the a very dangerous precedent.
