Remember ‘The Beast’? the game that was secretly launched around the movie AI? It seems that there is another similar augemented reality game currently being developed, and the rumour is that it is linked to the launch of Halo 2 on the xbox.

go to ilovebees for the mysterious launch pad for the project, and this message board to catch up on the game’s progress. At the moment, players are converging at a number of GPS points across the US, where they are expecting something related to the game to take place. Although there is equal scepticism that this is just a large puzzle publicising Halo 2, and not a fuly-fledged Augmented Reality puzzle at all. I’m sure all will be revealed over the net few days…

Cloudmakers, the group site for people solving The Beast, is a great resource for online/AR gaming.
