GameSpoon - Prince of Persia
Prince of Persia Animation Reference 1985 from jordan mechner on Vimeo.
I picked this up at Kotaku, this is fantastic! This is the original motion capture video used for the character animation in Prince of Persia. According to Kotaku, "[t]hat's PoP creator Jordan Mechner's little brother, running around in baggy pants. Mechner took this footage, tracked his bro's movements then based the Prince's animation on them."
Pretty rad.

Set 500 years after the original, Fable II provides gamers with an epic story and innovative real-time gameplay, including a massive amount of freedom and choice to explore a vast collection of dungeons, catacombs and caves in the world of Albion. Fable II expands upon the scope and depth of the Xbox classic by adding incredible new features and creating a wider, more complex kingdom of limitless choices and consequences. Players have the option to play as a man or woman, get married, have children, and live a life of their own design. Revisit the sprawling world of Albion more than 500 years after the events of the original Fable, where you are free to explore the landscape and openly roam the countryside. For the right price every house, hut, dungeon and castle is for sale. Players can witness how the world grows and changes in response to their decisions in incredible and unique ways as they rediscover Albion as if for the first time. Fable II pioneers a new combat system designed to allow players to truly master hand weapons such as swords and maces, ranged combat weapons such as cross-bows and guns, and an entirely new magic system. These three disciplines, while very accessible, are also amazingly deep, and allow players to mix combat styles and become everything from master swordsman to skilled ranger to evil magic welder, utilizing a single button on the Xbox 360 controller.

GameSpoon - Bungie
The folks at GamesIndustry.biz have dug up some information pertaining to Bungie's future.
As suspected, Halo 3: Recon is not the only game Bungie has up their sleeve right now. They are working on a new IP, a non-Halo game. However, after Bungie's separation from Microsoft, the question then becomes, who will publish this game? Which platform(s) will this game be released on?
I don't know about you, but I can't imagine a world without a Bungie game for the Xbox. We can only hope that the game will be released on multiple platforms, but it sure sounds like Bungie still has some love for the 360.
Here's what Bungie's PR Director, Brian Jarrard, thinks of the 360:
For us the 360 has been great because there's just been this great synergy with Bungie because all of our games have this inherent social community aspect. . .Everything we've ever done has this very big online component - we, together with the Xbox consoles, have continued to push that Live experience, the whole notion of a party experience forward.
I like to think that we brought a lot of that to the market, and we want to keep iterating on that. In that regard Live has been a great service to us. It's astonishing to look at how well Halo 3 is doing even now, a year after release.
We haven't really seen much of a decline in play, and we recently surpassed the lifetime number of games ever played on Halo 2 - so we're talking about four years of Halo 2 boiling down to about 1 year of Halo 3.
It's been pretty astounding, and to see our fans stand by us, it's even more reason why we want to do Halo 3: Recon, just to give something back and extend the experience a little bit longer.

RandomSpoon - What the hell?
I ate a 20-pound burger and all I got was this stupid t-shirt...and $400
This guy ate a 20-pound burger in four hours and thirty-nine minutes. Why the hell would you eat a 20-pound burger? Well, let's find out...
The wonderful folks at Denny's Beer Barrel Pub created a burger called the "Beer Barrel Belly Bruiser." This massive burger is 15lbs of beef topped with 5.2lbs of lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, onions, banana peppers (mild), mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard and relish...and, of course, a bun.
So, why did Brad Sciullo do this? According to him, he "wanted to see if [he] could" (cnn.com). Well, good work Mr. Sciullo...I guess. If it took over 4 hours for that burger to enter your body...what happens when it leaves? That's messed up.
