I'm always keeping up to date on what's going on with the main site, but ever so often I come to the forum's and every time I do it severely annoys the hell out of me.

In all honesty I don't see why Bungie even keep's doing these update's. It's always the same thing with everyone -blam!-ing and moaning asking where it is and when it get's here the -blam!-ing and moaning continues because it wasn't a full blown confession of what's going on. Like most I want as much info as possible, but you have to think in reality here and realize they aren't going to spill every piece of info possible in every single update. The fact they even keep their fan's up to date on what's going on is quite amazing for a developer and should be appreciated way more than it is.

There are developer's that go month's if not year's without really releasing any info on their games or even speaking much to any of their fan's, but here at Bungie.net you get a constant connection between the company and community. Overall I think anyone that constantly moan's should get a perma ban. You can express that you wished to see more without being an idiot with stuff like saying you lost respect for them and -blam!- like that.


I like the cut of your jib son.


Obviously you would enjoy the rant of a kiss butt.


Excuse me for having some maturity and actually realizing what is going on and being happy for what I get rather than constantly complaining about what I don't get. Sure I would of loved some info on why thing's went as they did at E3 and I would also love some info on when we are going to finally see what they have to show, but we aren't going to get it now and there is absolutely no excuse for being a jackass. You don't bite the hand that feed's you or you may starve.

You're like a little kid that get's a lot of present's during Christmas, but yet still find something to complain about. Parent's seriously need to step up their game because this generation is going down the drain with no respect or self control.

WHoot! page 9! errr.. 10!

Hard to imagine a point to doing future business with the little$oft guys any more. What a slap in the face so soon after your independence.

hmm.. so yeah, I think Sony's gonna' love you guys and treat ya' REAL special.. Especially since Microlimp wandered off with some of their exclusive stuff.

Blu ray disk.. nice.. :)

I'd buy a Playstation 3 for Bungie's own IP.,, Just say the word, I'm there, and I certainly won't be alone.

Looks like MinnyLimp will have to find someone else to save their nextgen "Purple Cube of Death" (tm) for them. (First their bluescreen of death, then their Red Ring of Death.. Purple cube seems logical, right?)

Luckily, they're prepared to do that, according to the big article that started all of this nonsense.. they don't NEED to rely on you guys, so no biggie when your next IP is a Sony Exclusive, right?

Or hey.. tiny$oft could have you guys first, and then you could be like "hey! we're crossing this over onto another platform.. one with FAR less limitations.. We can show you the IP as it was MEANT to be shown.. extra content ? hell it's practically a new game with all the stuff that we had to cut-out on the MiniLimp version due to it's bottlenecks and other obvious limitations!"

Bungie and Playstation.. sounds to me like it's the next step in achieving world dominance.

Back on topic..

Someone had asked what the bungie logo on the poster was for....
Wouldn't it make sense to assume it's because the movie thing was supposed to be about Bungies "gamer" experience at E3?

I really think Its funny that people will come onto these forums and complain about how other people complain. Its called freedom of speech, people can express their opinions even if the majority of people don't agree with them. Welcome to the real world it isn't perfect but it is all you got.

Bungie is biting the hand that feeds them, literally.

If you haven't noticed, we the fans, purchase Bungie's games.


That is where the lack of understanding sets in. It wasn't Bungie that pulled the plug on their plan's and to blame them for it is utterly ridiculous. Even then you shouldn't be mad at MS either because they obviously had some reason for doing it. Sure there is a lot of frustration going around and I am with everyone on that, but Bungie poured a hell of a lot into hyping up this annoucment and put a lot of work into making the content to be shown so they are just as disapointed as their fan's.

My main point is not that you shouldn't be disappointed with the situation, but the fact that you should have self control over how you express it. To be honest there is a lot of valid thing's said on this forum, but its the way people articulate it that pisses me off and Im sure Im not the only one it annoys.

Exactly. I'm not even speaking to them or arguing with them. If I argue with an idiot, that would make me an idiot, as well.

I only stated two lines to that one poster, above.

I'm not disappointed, I'm bored with Bungie's nonsensical updates. I would prefer no update at all because of what they have been posting, lately.

No "New Halo game" will ever be the same without Bungie.

Can you blame me for wanting to be part of the community but not have to communicate with crazed lunatic's constantly. I complain because the real truth is I would love to be part of this community, but the lack of intelligent conversation's really put me off.

I have absolutely no problem with people expressing their opinion since that's the point of a conversation, but saying everything in a immature and negative fashion adds nothing to the conversation nor is it productive.

Whatever though, I know people on here wont change so Ill continue to just be part of the community by following the main page instead. If this type of conversing brings you enjoyment then God speed to you.

If you look at the colums on the poster and think of the seventh as this month going clockwise december would be the colum next to the flash of light.

I belive something major will be revealed in december. To futher my hypothisis the friday update also refers to a star in the distance which i think is also refering to christmas. hensce the flash of light next to that colum. Follow the star.

Any thoughts on that Lukem???

It is, perhaps, unfortunate then that we hired the guy that forces you to come to the website and read the update every Friday at gunpoint.

What a horrible update. I am very let down. I should learn not to get my hopes up even on such minuscule things as the Weekly Update.

Bungie let downs.

<--snip!->

Anyway, I will just say this from now on, "Woo, I don't care. I don't believe it 'till I see it." I took off of school for the Beta and that's what I got. Now this E3 announcement BS. I'm surprised Bungie was able to ship Halo 3 without problems.



So glad you wasted your precious time in imparting this nugget of wisdom.

Just enjoy the ride, or get off.. ya' know?

You can't please all of the people all of the time, and they got to some serious lengths to try and cover as many bases as they can. Perhaps you know of other developers who are this in-touch with their members?

You have other games you can play? Maybe go buy some more? or is this really that important to you that you have to whine about the world not going your way?

So sorry your life sucks this bad.. maybe one day your luck will change.

Anyway I'm hoping they are allowed to show their hand at PAX or Leipzeg otherwise we may have to wait till X08 which I think is around september? I'm not exactly sure the date but it's quite a bit of time after PAX and Leipzeg I believe.

It is but a shame that the word "lately," implies recent activity. Not permanent obsession, of your website.

I like your creations, but not that much.
