They've Got Game Lev Grossman painted a wonderful picture of Halo 3, making it sound like the next game of the year [Sept. 10]. He stated that the story is "rich and complicated in ways that we're not used to in video games." But long before Halo 3 was conceived, there were The Legend of Zelda and the Castlevania and Metroid series. Even the more recent Mario games have a deep story line.

Last school year, a group of students revived the club with the help of head coach Crocker Snow Jr. ’61. Harvard’s men’s team...
They're both rich and famous, they're both notoriously earnest and left-leaning, they both have reputations for being emotionally tortured. So it makes a kind of cosmic sense that Sean Penn and Pearl Jam front man Eddie Vedder would be friends; they have been since 1995, when Vedder wrote music for Dead Man Walking, in which Penn starred. Both are currently experiencing second acts, Penn as a director and Vedder as a film composer. The duo have now collaborated: Vedder has written the sound track for Penn's movie Into the Wild, based on the book...
