So where does a mere publisher get off telling Bungie,.
I think you have that in reverse. If it weren't for publishers investing millions of dollars into developers, most of your beloved games wouldn't see the light of day. See, money talks, and whoever is supplying it tends to get their way. In this case, MS says "shut up or we won't publish your game". Bungie can either satiate the impatient desires of its fans and by doing so doom them to never have the game they were just told about or they can keep quiet and let everybody wait for what will come out anyway.

Yeah right they are sooo.... hurt not to share an new info with us. Like it matters to them. For all we know nothing was even planned and they put up some bogus countdown just to act like they were working on something. When the real show was being put on by Real Game Developers with Real Information. All it had to be was an annoucement not some flashy show, or fake CGI created piece like with halo 3(which by the way made the Campaign look way better than it was). Just an Annoucement, nothing more, nothing less.


Yes, because Bungie has a long history of bull-blam!- it's fans. Also, what is this "fake CGI created piece" you are referring to? If your talking about THIS, that was made using the game engine they had at the time, and if you had played Halo 3 (which I have), you would know that the graphics etc. are not as good as they ended up being in game.

Where at?


E3 Live on Gamespot

5 minutes to go.


Edit - It looks like they are running a few minutes behind and are still on the UFC stuff, but note on the page as I mentioned it's just listed as a "new XBox game"

WTF!!
Not the end of the world.. All the hard work that Bungie staff did to get this "Reveal" done will not go to waste, although its a pain in the ass it couldn't have been done when they anticipated...
To be honest it's nobody's fault and no blame should be put on to Microsoft or Bungie...
its a decision that wasn't taken lightly by either side..

It will all become clear in due course...
The situation is being Monitored..

Talking of the number 7..
the date of the letter from Harold Ryan
Tuesday, July 15 2008 7.00pm

Tuesday has 7 letters...!

Then add the Dates..

1+5=6+2=8+8=16... 1+6=7

and then we have 7pm..


Go figure ;)
Peace

I'm not upset. A little confused, but it's all good. Bungie's stuff is worthy of a bit of patience now and again.

You're on Bnet and don't know what E3 is?

It's the Electronic Entertainment Expo.

It's only THE BIGGEST video game show of the year.

No.

It's an real-life in-person Expo.

It's a place that people go to and companies show off new video games and updates to the video game industry.

Huge announcements happen at E3.


People have been known to do interesting things to get tickets.

It's gotten a lot smaller in the last couple years, but it used to be huge.

Literally 10's of thousands of people.

I come back from surgery only to find out that an E3 announcement that I didn't know about has been cancelled.
Wow.
You can miss a lot in a few days...

  • 07.16.2008 4:42 PM PDT

They're probably trying to make sure it gets the attention it deserves because they might think if they didn't announce it at the press conference it might get lost it everything at e3. just a guess although probably wrong.

oh and idk if anyone posted this already but, Microsoft says bungie is developing a new halo game

  • 07.16.2008 4:49 PM PDT

Yeah, Gamespot is a bunch of Naruto fanboys anyway. I figured it would end up being something dumb like that.
