Where Little Earl and Herr Zrbo's Interests Intersect

This past Saturday this picture came across my Twitter feed. On the left is Marty O'Donnell, head audio director for Bungie Studios, maker of one of my favorite series of games, Halo (he also penned this gem, no joke). On the right is some guy from a band my parents used to listen to, something like The Beets, I can't remember but I'm fairly certain it had to do with vegetables. Bungie has moved on from the Halo series and the studio is currently working on a new top secret game, and from what Bungie is teasing here, it looks like this Sir Paul guy might be involved (and his Twitter feed proves it).

    All of our interests intersect, Zrbo.

    ALL OF THEM.

    Speaking of: could you give me the name of that Turkish psychedelic album again?

    I've never understood why people love Bungie and Halo. Half-life and Valve are where it's at.

    I also don't share LE's appreciation for solo McCartney.

    Odd man out????

    I love Half Life/Valve too, but when was the last time they put out a Half Life episode, 5 years? In the meantime I'll be excited for Halo 4. Also, Bungie have moved on from Halo, 343 Industries is making the new one. Double also, Marty O'Donnell's Halo scores are some of my favorite music. I know Halo isn't everyone's cup of tea, especially PC gamers, but I enjoy them quite a bit.
