this was spotted at CI, and i thought it might be worth mentioning:

http://www.newmombasa.com

so at first glance you see the poster from the zune pics, which also links to halo3.com, and here:

http://www.newmombasa.com/images/

here you see several pics related to New Mombasa, and the other components like the BG

whether this is related or not is yet to be determined, as its an old site, and there is no glyph, so well see

Edit: also see this:

I'm not so sure if its legit. looks to me like someone took a bunch of screen shots with the blind skull and photoshopped them. Not to mention a lack of a glyph.

I'll let the topic live for a bit, but it seems completely unrelated to me. I mean, considering that two of the images aer fan-made from last year.

It was made by some dude in Arizona. Want me to prank call him? (ya kno, to dig some info out of him)

EDIT: Okay, here's some details on the people who purchased it. Doesn't appear to be a personal prank...either that or a fake address.

I called it. Its a legit business. However, 3 actual people live in that (what is apparently a) plaza.

Jones, Lynn
Husken, Mary-Ann

And a very interesting one...

That other link looks like it could be something, but I'm not too sure about it.

I mean, what is the point of just linking you to Halo3.com? Either there is something else or it's nothing.
