Bungie's announcement of their next game project - their first on Xbox 360 and not Halo-related. Or... maybe it is. Hmm.

[moosegrinder]

Apples? MS buying out Apple? Something to do with the iPod? Clutching at straws?

[Marzipan Travolta]

I think it probably is another ARG of some sort but that it's one for the Japanese market.

That's my birthday, nice of Microsoft to remember it. Maybe it's counting down to the announcement that Shenmue III will actually be on a console this generation.

Anyone any closer to finding out what this is?

Its the date Microsoft announce the launch titles. The fruit represents the number of launch titles per teritory.

I stick by my thoughts that it will be a Halo 3 announcement.

Microsoft press release (Gamespress.com):

What is Origen?

London, 26 September 2005

The forthcoming launch of the next-generation-defining console, the Xbox 360, is the most hotly anticipated launch this year.

Origen. Xbox promises a gamers paradise. What is paradise for gamers? We think we know. What do you think?

The internet is already buzzing with rumours. Is Origen the announcement of Halo 3? Is it an Xbox 360 shop on Times Square, is it the announcement on an Unreal Engine 3-powered Fable sequel.......?

Origen is? The debut of next generation gaming. A real place dedicated to gaming pleasures. A place to play Xbox 360 before anyone else. A place to play all the Xbox 360 launch titles. A place to take on other gamers.

How do you get to Origen? Over 600,000 gamers have already tried to find out. They find a page at www.origenxbox360.com, but paradise is not there yet. The gates of Origen open soon. The European race for entry into Origen starts on 27 September 2005.

Interesting..

[Eighthours]

Btw, on the Bizarre Creations forum, the guys who work for Bizarre are talking cryptically about a press conference they're taking part in that's taking place a few days before X05. I'm starting to think that this could be it.

How has the tree not gone down that hole yet, even just a little bit?

[Paulando]

Yeah, it's Tuesday! Happy Birthday!

Perhaps it's something to do with interconnectivity (maybe) between the DS (two apples, 4 pairs) and perhaps connecting to the PC as well?

The bigger rabbit has 2 dots on it, god knows why...

Or each pair of apples represents genitalia and the rabbits are a symbol of fertility. So the 360 is going to be a gangbang in your living room?

[Sng]

It's gonna be about an Xbox 360 launch party, hell yeah.

[cubeadvance]

I think Soong has hit the nail on the bonce there.

[Cerberus]

It's not for Americans, it's for Europeans.

Woah there, are you saying that something to do with Xbox 369 is not being targeted at American teenage gamers?

Are you feeling okay? More to the point are Microsoft feeling okay? I think they should be tucked up in bed till 12 noon PDT and then they can announce that it's Halo 3, that it will be entirely online, and that they'll be a power up system for the weapons that you activate by whining and swearing into your headset.
