Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

All right guys, this is starting again. Similar to I Love Bees. This is the new ARG to reveal what the Xbox 2 looks like. The game will probably run until May 18 or so... Lets see if we can't participate and enjoy ourselves shall we?

Let do it guys!

so far, if you look into the orb, you see a girl wearing a sweater, and what kinda looks like a screenshot to a FPS game (maybe it's perfect dark, who knows)

Lets figure out the password to get in.


we need to form a group, our group will be gametavern, to play... i figured out the password, it is Play.... go in and check it out!!!!!!!

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

If you press the enter button enough different things appear in the orb, that's all I got.

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

Alright, we need 5 people at least to join...

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

Can someone explain what this is to me?


Because I'm so confused it hurts.

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

it's an "alternate reality game" that you play online... .they give you riddles and clues, once you solve them you move on... we're doing it all because the more answers you get right, the more you get to see of XBOX 360's design!!!!!!

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

Hmmm, that sounds really *interesting.
































*Interesting may or may not mean lame.

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

Still not seeing a riddle anywhere...

/me shrugs and walks away

EDIT:


Okay, so I figured maybe I was supposed to use the GT password on that entry page, but whenever I do it had some error... And there's not riddle when I enter with "play" and go to "Your Colony."

So...

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

Got the number puzzle.

It's and ISBN number from a book about xbox.

They want the last quote. From what site? I tried amazon, both the kid form san jose and the mercury news. Any ideas?


http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...glance&s=books

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

Maybe the product description? Just try quoting everything in there...

And, uh, I still don't know where the riddle is on the website... Or anything...


/me shrugs and walks away

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

go to that amazon page, mouseover the book, and it allows you to search the whole book, find out what the last quote in that book is...

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

On the back cover is the same quote from that San Jose guy... Then a thing on the author... Zyman, Sergio, 168... The excerpt only goes up to page six...


/me shrugs and walks away

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

Typing play in the box on the main page takes you to /lounge
Typing rules in the box takes you to /rules
Typing create in the box lets you create a challenge

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
 

here is another clue for later, they were going to make it an advertisement

i got it by spying in someone elses "colony"

http://img7.exs.cx/img7/8418/circbanner0gk.jpg

if someone has an amazon account, can they check what is on page 370 as the last quote?

Password no worky for me.

We'll cut out bodies free from the tethers of this scene,
Start a brand new colony
Where everything will change,
We'll give ourselves new names (identities erased)
The sun will hear the grounds
Under our bare feet in this brand new colony
Everything will change, oOo oOo...

Re: Our Colony NEW ARG!!!
