I iz a Director Nowz

Ok so not really and do people actually talk like that? In anycase being a director is something I have always wanted to do and while I am in no position to make feature length films, or even shorts at this time I am able to mess around a bit with Bungie's rendering service on...

Old School

Last night I did something I haven't done in quite some time, I played split screen multiplayer.
