MSXL: The Last Honest Chapter

For those of you that remember the beloved Bungie Community Guy (before Sketch), I have his permission for an interview, and I need some good questions. I figure the Spetagon is a good place to post this, since the 7th Column was Matt's place of dwelling only a few years ago! This is in no way a chapter ad, as you don't have to join to leave your ideas! Go here for more info. :)

My friend, you would not tell with ſuch high zeſt
To children ardent for ſome deſperate glory,
The old Lie: Dulce et decorum eſt
Pro patria mori.

Pretty simple question really:

"Do you miss Bungie, either through the atmosphere and work ethic, or specific persons?"

&

"To what extent was your decision to join Wideload based on your previous working relationships?"

Does wideload ever plan on making a community based on fans like bungie, if so would you be the "Cummunity Guy"?

Do the gunshots in the ambient city sounds seem to welcome you back?

Is [color=yellow]Wideload[/color] a Hippopotamus tolerant company?

To Whom It May Concern,

What where some of the pressures of the change from independant development to a cooperatly owned development? Especially during the same project (Halo)?

What are some of the bonuses (other than money) of being cooperatly owned?

How are new ideas from the fan base usually treated in Bungie? (while you where there)

And if it is all about the deep-dish pizza, to you still smell the cheese?

Thank you for your time today.

I think you should ask Matt if he knows where Soul is. I've been looking for Soul and cannot find him. I miss him, as do many of us here.And ask him if he likes this.

"Are you really just a trap placed by Bungie, ready to spring into action with their world domination plan?"

This is more of the right thing... and more the right vintage, come to think of it.

As far as a question for Matt... what is the most fun you had while working for either Bungie or Wideload?

-- Steve's always interested in that kinda stuff.

Ach! Was ist los?

How many of the Marathon keychains do you own?
