One of the new skulls for Anniversary should add a Hulk Fist to the punching end of a Hunter's arm:

And it makes the "HULK SMASH!" noises each time they hit you.

Less mentioned/popular Halo CE moments looking forward to replaying with the remastered audio and graphics?

There are so many moments, but the first one that came to my mind was when you rise from underground near the end of Two Betrayals, and as you walk up the exit the "Final Run" title is displayed and Under Cover of Night starts...

The Bungie panel starts at 12pm. So if we meet at 7am(I don't know when you guys eating breakfast :p), we have three hours(or two hours and 30minutes9 of fun and can go together to the Bungie panel.

Pancakes are disgusting. I might be down for the meetup, but seeing as how I'm going to be with Blood probably 100% of the time, I can't confirm or deny any adventures.

Personally, give me French toast or GTFO.

Cliché: Germans are Obsessed with Punctuality

The author, a teacher, wishes that Germans were as punctual as their reputation. Her students, however, are always late while her foreign students normally arrive on time. Nonetheless, Germans are always on time for business meetings, and if they invite guests for dinner and they are tardy, Germans are not amused and they express their feelings directly and clearly to them.

The smell alone is enough to make me gag, really.

I don't like French Toast either, I'm not really a big breakfast guy in general. I like Bacon, Sausage, and Country Ham, that's about it. :p

So, aside from Cosplay, when with some other ways to get into the VIP be announced?

What about sausage, biscuits and gravy?

That reminds me. Is there a Waffle House in Seattle? It's a little on the trashy side, but it's delicious.

You have me mistaken for that slimeball EazyB bro! Yea, since we're staying with him, unless he's working, I figured our schedule might be dictated by what he ends up doing.

Biscuits and gravy or ok Hitmon, I usually like them at the time, then regret eating it a few hours later when it destroys my stomach.

It's a rhetorical question. The reason we want to go to these panels is because we're going to be at PAX. The experience of being at PAX is very different from watching a video online.

I will put hundreds of hours into Skyrim, far more than I will into CEA's campaign. I'm not missing the panel. :p

As for breakfast food, I'm a french toast guy. But I fucking love breakfast food in general. Pancakes, french toast, waffles, omelets, scrambles, ham, bacon, biscuits and gravy, sausage...yeah. All in.

Eff. That's a very good point. Did you watch the 40-minute video by any chance? I've never heard a crowd so pumped up by a non-competitive game before.

I might try to catch the panel another day, though.

Yeah, pancakes are for scrubs. French toast is where it's at. Or even better: homemade egg + sausage croissant sandwiches. Just blew your mind, I know.

So jealous of you PAX goers. I kind of want to go to Seattle just to hang with you guys, haha.

After I get done with Bad Company 2 tonight (which is in one hour!), I'm going to sit down and figure out my PAX panel schedule.

Also, I'm going to try to get some stuff online early Friday morning during PAX, and then I'm going to just enjoy the rest of my time in Seattle. I've been stressing myself out by trying to do too much at too many different places, and it's time I just take a few steps back.

Pro-Tip. Go to the audio settings and put it on War-Tapes.

Wake the whole neighborhood with the greatest sound design ever.

All other games sound horrible after playing Battlefield. The sound design for BF3 blows even BC2 out of the water. It's simply ridiculous.

My wife has recently taken to making a strange sounding but incredible breakfast item; she read about it somewhere.

It's a particular pancake batter, with slices of bread dipped into it and then grilled on a waffle grill. It has the crispiness and shape of a waffle, the heartiness of french toast and the taste of pancakes. Sort of the turducken of bready breakfast foods. It's amazing.

Domino would knock over a book shelf and storm out of the house.

We've been varying it. My wife and I use a type of Dave's Killer Bread (21 whole grain), the kids use white-ish wheat bread.

Dear HaloGAF-

I've been searching for one of those super nice and awesome ODST PT shirts like I've seen Bungie employees wearing during the release of ODST and in the commercial (I think).

Has anyone seen one available for sale somewhere, or was this another of those shirts that only Bungie had access to? :(

I tried searching online, and I could only find 'Cafepress' shirts, and they're not exactly what I was looking for.
