Monday Morning Scripted – 3FS Awards
Welcome to another Monday Morning Scripted. I don’t have a case of the Mondays today but I do have a case of the Heroes! Tonight begins the event of the year on network televsion…the beginning of the Heroes season finale next week. Tonight’s episode is going to set the stage for the 2-hour season finale on May 21. I’m excited and I know my Heroes fans are too.
Anyone notice that the Halo 3 Beta began for a select few this past weekend? Bungie started their Friends and Family program for select media and friends this weekend and Halo 3 mania swept through like wildfire. Were you selected? Check your friend’s Halo 3 stats on Bungie.net to see how they’re stacking up.
I hope all the mothers out there had a wonderful day yesterday. I had plans on a Mother’s Day show but my mother controlled the entire day so I wasn’t able to release it. I’ll be releasing #35 tonight or tomorrow with bits of the Mother’s Day special though.
I had my first hands on time with the Xbox 360 Elite yesterday. My mother bought my little brother one. Yes, I was jealous and yes I wanted to pull the switcharoo. It looks good and to end the drama about the variations in color, I’ll agree that the controller and console are different shades. Does it matter? No. I was able to connect it with the HDMI and I must admit the picture was indeed a bit sharper. (must get an HDTV with HDMI soon for myself)
The hard drive had 103 gigs on it without deleting the packaged media on it. Overall, I was impressed with the design of it. It had the old dashboard as well so to those wondering if it came packaged with the latest update, it didn’t. The black controllers look really good even with that dull gray strip. I wish it had been black or the launch color strips on the original controller design.
I wanted to give a quick shout to ZaaM and Squidpunch over at 360 FriendSpot for the first 3FS Awards! They developed their own brand of spotlight for the community and have just released the categories for everyone to vote on. It just so happens that they have a category for best community podcast and someone decided to nominate Unscripted 360. Voting for the awards start today so cast a vote for your favorites.

If by “a select few” you mean yourself then yes, I did notice that it was out over the weekend. How is it?
