I Heart Bees Again - Halo 3's Iris ARG

I Love Bees is regarded as one of the more successful alternate reality games (ARGs) ever run in the US. It should be no surprise, then, that the game's spiritual sequel entitled simply Iris , is causing quite a stir. It began on June 11th, with cryptic messages in the Bungie forums. Designed to take players through the history of the Halo world over the course of the summer, players have already uncovered some 'pre-game' information; for all intents and purposes the actual game hasn't started yet. Michael VanderZand probably wish it was already over, though: then he might have some peace and quiet. The climax is expected sometime on September 26th, the day after Halo 3 releases to stores.

    wish I could have been born earlier so i could have been a nazi. If you'd been born earlier, you'd have been killed as part of the Nazis' eradication of the mentally feeble.

    I've been alone with you inside my mind
    And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times
    I sometimes see you pass outside my door
    Halo, is it bees you're looking for?

    I can see it in your eyes
    I can see it in your smile
    You're all I've ever wanted, and my arms are open wide
    'Cause you know just what to say
    And you know just what to do
    And I want to tell you so much, I love bees...
