Some guy posted this on TXB

"some fo the guys at engadget were talkin about this site called ourcolony.net (sorry my html skillz sux) that they think is related to next gen. anyway, as i was reading the site this little image flashed and showed what looked like a pwer button.

now i thought to myself 'where did i see this before?" then it hit me "it's on the Xbox!"

here's some other interesting stuff about the site that ive seen

there's a timer on the top corner. i found out that it counts down to sometime in may which is just right around E3. hmm... next-gen, E3? i wonder.... unless its some kindof conspiracy"

if you go to the site ourcolony.net, it does look like the xbox power button; just refresh the page a couple of times




sorry if old





its ILB all over again!

My wayward career path was stabilized by the 1987 release of the multi-award winning title, "Memory Effect". This text-based game was elegantly simple in its graphic interface but took off mostly because of its complex interlocking network of ciphers leading to puzzles leading to more ciphers, in a pattern that I suppose was compelling then but sure seems pretty flat nowadays. I made up a horror-movie style gimmick to publicize the game-offering $10,000 to the first person who could identify the occupant of the House of Doom, the final puzzle in the game. Nobody ever came forward and now I no longer remember who held the lease on the House of Doom.

Also, can somebody from the group tell me my username there? I forgot it, but it was like IATGamer or something.

 

[op_ivy]

i'm not sure if somethings up or not, but i can no longer log in, and i'm pretty sure i remember my login and password...

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

that must be it because I'm pretty sure it was IATGamer. I wanted to see where those pics came from.

It does seem to be real, one of the things released was J.Allard in a Colony t-shirt.
