Man that made it more confusing

Grindstone · 06-09-2005, 03:16 PM

Accordingly:

"In this space our tree blooms abundant with the unknown fruits of Elysium, which will imitate in the place chosen, surrounded by the angels of Origen."

Yippie, more riddles! -Think I'll go do something else.

did anyone save the: week-3.swf file?

i must have had it saved in my cache cause i was able to view that one and this newest one: http://www.origenxbox360.com/swf/cou...with_latin.swf

While i was flipping back and forth, I noticed a couple things:

- the week-3.swf file shows a "light spot" where this weeks fruit showed up
- this weeks version has more branches in the tree than the last one

I should have saved these from day one ... but I just noticed that. So if anyone happened to save the flash files, can you pass them along?

thanks,
md

One word, people: Kiosks.

My best guess is that on Sept. 27th kiosks with the 360 will distributed to retailers across the world.

ColdSpyder · 06-09-2005, 04:36 PM

what is kiosks?? lol

Grindstone · 06-09-2005, 04:43 PM

kiosks are those annoying mobile stations that you find in malls, typically armed with either; a) a good looking chick, or b) someone representing some gothic era long forgotten.

Either way, 99% of what they are selling you will find free later on.

1. A small open gazebo or pavilion.
2. A small structure, often open on one or more sides, used as a newsstand or booth.
3. A cylindrical structure on which advertisements are posted.

k thanks

The 360 kiosk has a 26" TV connected to a 360, which has 2 wired controllers along with it.

And no, Grindstone, it's not an annoying thing in a amall, it's a stand that holds a Widescreen TV and a 360 for you to play on.

ok remember the 8 that was on the rabbit. well look at this from the xbox360 website(i did a print screen which was hard as hell). it is part of the animation at the beggining of the site. http://www.miamihost.net/ims/u/Rubik.../XBOX360_8.JPG

P.S. no clue if that has been shown already and i know that the 8 on the rabbit is old news but still just thought i would throw that out there.

distantearlywarning · 06-09-2005, 05:28 PM

Ok so someone said that the counter skips and i watched it and it skips a number every 41 seconds. So like i whould skip 23 thne 42 then 01 and so on. So mabey there going to anoce the relese date of something like Halo 3 on 4/1 (fools day). But now there are 2 bunnies so I'am so lost.

mlethbridge · 06-09-2005, 06:34 PM

Good eye on the 41 seconds thing. I was watching the time last night and noticed that in one minute it would skip 2 seconds and the next minute it would skip 1 second, and then it would repeat. I didn't catch that it was skipping every 41 seconds though. If we take this a bit further, we can find that it skips 90 seconds in 1 hour, and multiply that by 24 hours, and it skips 2,160 seconds in one day, which works out to 36 minutes per day. I think that the amount of minutes it skips per day cannot be ignored (36 minutes - xbox360?? just thinking out loud). So in the roughly 20 days left before the countdown runs out, it will skip roughly 12 hours, (36 minutes x 20 days = 720 minutes). So shouldn't the countdown actually end at midnight on sept 26, early sept 27?

My print preview looks like christmas, red, green, and snow, anyone else have a print preview similar or is it just IE7

EDIT: no print preview in firefox

jonroach13 · 06-09-2005, 07:45 PM

if you google Elysium and Origen, I found this...

http://www.ccel.org/s/schaff/history/2_ch12.htm

it talks about both them and angels

daniel.isaac.h · 06-09-2005, 07:50 PM

Zoom in on the trunk of the tree! There is a latin phrase! Romper Stomper pointed this out. I took latin for a while and here's the translation I found.

in hoc spatio arbor noser floruit,
fecundus pomis Elysii ignoti,
quo in loco ludent electi,
ab Originis angelis circumdati.

In this space of ours a tree flourishes,

Bearing the fruits of Elysia (From Elysium, the name of the realm of the dead in Greek and Roman mythology, which was our sort of heaven... Immortal Bliss)

Which in it's chosen place, they are,

Surrounded by the angels of the begining. (which points to involvement with Nintendo in my opinion)

romper stomper good find bro!

Oh, and the timer jumping around might be because of the time differences? Maybe? I dunnoo... but it's something big... It'll be bigger than we think ...

I'm going to say it again... I think Nintendo is going to stop making consoles and partner with Microsoft... They have been stating that they want to make games not consoles... There had been some meetings between Microsoft and Nintendo before the systems were announced. Just remember that Nintendo has a sore spot with sony. Sony took the technology that Nintendo and Sony developed together for the upgraded SNS.

Remember the first clue about circles? Circles = Revolutions? Hmmm...

The second clue: "2 systems, and a entire universe to explore".... HMMM!

Third clue saying "9 is fun for J not A and E" This would deffinately steal the Japanese market! Imagine all the old classics from NES, SNS, and N64 downloadable from XboxLive Marketplace! Nintendo would make a killing, well so would Microsoft!

This was linked to the origenxbox360 site... One of the people involved wrote this...

http://thx8612.blogspot.com/2005/08...lders-were.html

It talks about three old wise men (Nintendo, Sony, and M$)

It is talking about how people overlook Nintendo because of old age... I dunno... Very interesting.

This is a link stating that M$ has been very keen on buying Nintendo... I doubt they will buy them out... Just ally with them.

Read this article. http://psx.ign.com/articles/060/060188p1.html

The last thing Sony wants is someone to take the lead...
The last thing Nintendo wants is for Sony to take the lead...
The first thing Microsoft wants is to take the lead...

Out of such situations come great alliances...

"If Hiroshi Yamauchi calls, he'll get me on the line right away," Gates was quoted as saying, in a reference to Nintendo's former president. That was taken July 29th, 2004

Please don't post how ridiculous this sounds... Because I know it! lol. We are here stating our theories and I have my own.

We will see September 26-27!

This anxiety is killin me.

Just remember that I predicted this first! lol. Read back on the blog here and you'll see I'm not joking. lol.

Cheers.

Do you think that might mean that the 360 will be released in Japan in September, and America and Europe later?
