Although I've never seen Microsoft as threath to the quality of Bungie's games, I find this good news.
It certainly isn't a bad one.

I'm unimpressed.

There were very important questions left ignored, like why people haven't gotten achivements or unlocks for over four days. Or strategies for getting the impossible achivements. Nothing to help Elite players at all.


The first line says it will updated throughout the day. Check back later, maybe there will be some answers...

"Cotton thwaps him with the Gravity Hammer, Frankie flies through the air, blood splattering from his corpse, his head snapping back on the ceiling, leaving a bloody imprint on a light fixture and then his body skitters into a gravity lift and is boosted up into the Yellow room."
i love Bungie.

great update

Reach!

It's nice to hear some official information regarding Bungie and MS. Thanks for clearing that up, and the multiplayer maps aren't quite satisfying enough, we need more soon. What about the Ice and Lava level?

Nice job on Halo 3, good questions were answered. Now that your off working on your own ,just don't make me have to buy another console or soup up my pc. i think you & bioware should teamup on something. :)

Exactly my point. I mean, Halo made what the xbox is today. We supported bungie all the way and we saw it grow together with the xbox and now this! I am all for their creativity and all, but if they start making games for the PS3, this would be like a stab to the heart, like Betrayal.

On another note, it would be interesting to see them take on 2 proyects at a time, like the next halo related game and a totally new IP.

here's a question that won't be answered... Why in split screen, for one person to quit out, it forces both people to quit out? In Halo 2, one of the players just obtained the entire screen if their friend quit out. In Halo 1 it would quit the person out, but the other player would still be playing on their half of the screen.


and how long until a hardcore playlist comes out?

Microsoft Pushed Halo 2, thats why bungie admits it wasn't as good as it should have been although still a great game, and it seems with Halo 3, Microsoft pushed that too, but not nearly as much as Halo 2, but Microsoft has much more strict deadlines for the production of games, if you look at the process of making Halo bungie had so many ideas, some great others less great, but the bigger your pool of creativity the better you can make a game or whatever it maybe. I guess, I'd like to say Congratulations to Bungie because I think they've been wanting this for a long time and fighting to get it. I just hope Bungie got what they needed, and wanted.

Damn, you didn't mention the aliasing.. it's such a shame that the game that is like, the best one ever, and with such a beatifull campaign, has got to be a jaggy mess.

  • 10.05.2007 9:11 AM PDT

Just remember... I keep it real...

So we now get the tru7h about the Bungie/Microsoft split-up. So Bungie is now a 3rd party developer... that is probably going to make only Xbox games like a 2nd party developer would do.... I get it? I guess its just that Bungie wanted to move out from its parents house. Bungie wanted to stay up past 9 and watch late night shows, but Microsoft wouldn't let them. So Bungie got on its Harley and drove off into the sunset... but still returns every now and then for supplies. Did I get it right?

And I do hope you add more questions to todays update. None of my questions were answered except for why is shotty snipers played so much.

I have one more question though...
I wanted to see someones service record but also wanted to play a game, so while match making was running, I went to my friends list and checked his service record, than the game lagged a for a little bit and I got put back into the waiting lobby, so I thought no big deal. I look on b-net and found out I lost a RP for it and was in a game but I was never able to play it. question is, are you guys going to fix this?

  • 10.05.2007 9:13 AM PDT

I really hope that the situation with the glitchy achievements and permutations remaining locked will be addressed, but pretty good so far.

Why is it so hard for people to read and understand, it clearly says they are going to keep developing for 360. Also, if Microsoft owns a minority interest there wont be anything developed on any other platform.

Good update.. glad to see the rumors cleared up!

One question that was asked by a few people but never answered - What will be done about the half second delay in Co-op that people are experiencing? When I host co-op, my controls lag about a half second after pushing the button (firing, jumping, etc) but my friend's controls are fine.

to all those cry babies, there was like 1000 questions asked at least. Dont act like a little girl cause yours didnt get chosen.

Congrats on becoming independant. I wonder is it mabye like microsoft used you guys and are now throwing you away cause your done with halo and theyre not so sure about your next idea? Was microsoft restricting you from doing things? i wonder who wanted the split and why. I also wonder what it took micro$oft to agree to the split. Like how much it cost bungie or whatever. Unless microsoft wanted to give them the boot but i highly doubt that.

Also to the dummies, im 98% sure bungie is not going to go off and make a ps3 exclusive game. If you think thats even a possibility you might need your brain checked.
