The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

THX on USA Today.com

daremo and Bullet walked into my office today asking if I noticed that hushedcasket.com was mentioned in a HALO 3 article at USAToday.com. Sure enough, we are listed under "Gamer Opinions" on the HALO 3 beta article. Pretty cool. Thanks to Mike Snider at USAToday.com for picking up our feed. Thanks to daremo for being an uber geek that reads USAToday's Tech section every day.

Over the past year we've seen more and more mainstream websites pick up hushedcasket.com stories. Of course, Midnight has gotten a lot of attention from the NY Times, Wired, Boing Boing, and more for his military efforts. Our gaming content has been picked up by some top gaming-related website likes Kotaku, Digg, XBOX360fanboy, EvilAvatar, and more. Just last week, (the back of the head of some) THX'ers were seen on a story on Joystiq.com.

Good work to those of you that are creators of original copy and content. Thanks for your words and creativity.

By the way, the Evil Avatar story is causing a bit of controversy in the media right now. What he said got printed in newspapers around the globe. Gamerscore blog has coverage.

Where else can you get the sort of authentic flair we offer here at THX? Not many places I say.

I'll be picking my jaw up off of the floor now.

Wow. I'd have refrained from mentioning fallous-shaped objects had I known we'd get national level attention. gg
