Every year since 1999, the folks at Bungie have set aside a day to take a break from creating kick-ass games to eat, drink, game, and be merry. Dubbed the Bungie Pentathalon, the event features game tournaments and enough food and drink to keep the Kotaku staff occupied for almost an entire hour.

This years events included a four man Halo 3 tournament, Wii Bowling, Age of Empires, Street Fighter, Gears of War, Guitar Hero, and even a real Pictionary competition. You can read all of the sordid details of the party over at Bungie's website, including more amazing pictures taken of the Halo 3 tournament that show off amazing, next-gen picture blurring technology.
