Meh, It isn't in my view, butI digress.

And potentially this could be for anything. We'll find out in a matter of days when the time ticks away prehaps and this fruit ripens.

Personally. From a gaming point of view (I've worked in the industry for years.) It makes more sense for MS to release Halo3, the single greatest one day sales game of all time, in direct rival to PS3 (with a price drop)

All experts are beliving they are doing this to ride the Halo 3 wave. Stores were selling out pre-orders of that game were I lived.

My guess is that it is an expantion if it is anything Halo related at all, but Aside from waiting it out, I'm 90% sure it has something to do with a store opening at this point.

 		Ok, I checked out the IGN link posted here. I have to admit it's interesting if nothing else and there may even be something to it.

That being said, today I got a couple of friends at the office involved and one of them came back with something pretty interesting. Here is what he noticed.

Zoom in on the back left leg of the larger rabbit and you will see what looks exactly like the green apples in the tree above, only upside down. I have no idea what this amounts to, but I offer it up as another possible piece to the puzzle.

I have provided a picture here to give you an idea of what to look for, but I recommend working off the original when ever possible.

 		Ok, that is what the first friend came back with. But the other friend came back with something as well. Keep in mind that this guy is a huge Xbox and Halo fan and sometimes people see what they want to see. However, I thought his observation had some merit and therefore am sharing it with you.

If you focus in on the bottom part of the tree you will notice that it is in fact a slightly different (some what paler) color than the rest of the tree. He also noted that this color was very similar to the color of the Flood in Halo and that one could argue there was even an outline of a character there.

Again, I don't know what this means or even if his observation is valid. But there may be something to it so I am sharing it with you.



Also remember, I suggest always going and reviewing these observations from the original and only provide these pictures as a guide.

 		*squints* you know. I think I see something in that picture.

Oh! I know! I know I know I know! It is a tree! OMG they hid a tree in there!


what else what else... Rabbit! It looks like a rabbit! what could the rabbit mean? Maybe it means Peter Bob Rabbit from accounting is planting a new tree.

 		ROFLMAO!

Like I said, there could be a little bias in the observation.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but I should point out that they also appear while looking at the extracted background image (for some reason, the images appear to have a black background, except when viewing the PNG version in Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. Which reminds me... why does it extract the image as both a .jpg and a .png?)





Oh, and the site's changed to week 4 (more specifically: week-4_with_latin.swf )
(Also, those artifact things still appear in the new file)

It seems very greek to me, very "origenish".


My guess is that it is actually some kind of graffiti. I know it looks good but this is a very very trendy end of town and there are a lot of artist types around. Just my 2 cents worth.

For the bonsai tree. Take a look at some bonsai olive trees. They look pretty close (root structure and leaf shape) and the fruit even looks similar. However I freely admit that an olive tree seems like a long shot. Although it does tie in nicely with the Elysium and Spartan theme.
