Alright hopefully someone who works at Bungie will be scanning the forums and responds to this, just to humour me. because they are the only ones i can trust on such a delicate subject. alright, my cool friends and i were playing halo (who guessed) anyway after i took them all to school, we got into a shuffle about whether Bungie is pronounced BUN JEE like Bungee cord or Bung E like BUNG from bungalow with an E after it. I think its BUNG E because if they wanted it pronounced bunjee they would just spell it exactly the same as bungee cords (bungee). so since its not spelled bungee i figure its not pronounced bungee. please help. ps no need to tell me how cool i am

When Halo was in its first few weeks of release, XBM (I think) had an article explaining and discussing Halo. And the article's title: "Prepare for the biggest Bungie jump of your life!"

Now, how would that make sense if it were pronounced "Bung E"? Simple: It wouldn't.

Now, XBM could have been guessing, as you are now, but do you really think that they wouldn't know, being as Bungie and Microsoft communicate with each other as often as they do?

If this doesnt answer your question, then I am sorry for wasting your time.

That is all,
Farwell.

It's the former. You just have to watch a video with them in to find that out.

Or you could listen to the hidden "Bungie rules" song on the Myth 2 level "The Wall". Move the camera up behind the dam (ie the opposite direction to where the wights are coming from) and look for an island with weird Easter Island-like head things. You will now hear the song. Or you could find the specific sound tag in Fear if you wanted to. :)

Bugie. (Bun'Jee). If you don't know how to pronounce it you don't deserve to play Halo, Marathon, or any other bungie game.
