I've lost all respect for Bungie. I love you guys, but I can't respect you as a developer anymore. You're just like everyone else now; only in it for the money.


Uh, real talk?


he should stop moaning and start looking how great bungie are no other company in my opinion gaming or otherwise is in touch with there community listening to our problems and quires plus creating such a stir by less than a hundred word (SI thing if you don't know), and share our anger with the whole E3 thing, but are trying to make the best with what they got, and i thank them for put somthing together for this week, i am curious about


[b]Future Tents

Despite whatever eased into the ether regarding what we’re working on at Bungie, speculative hunches and guesswork certainly don’t tell the full tale. I’d go so far as to say these ramblings are barely even a Prologue, not even a Foreword to the storybook we’re putting together. Rest assured, there are multiple machinations afoot at Bungie, one is so close you can feel its familiar warmth on your cheek while you sleep; another so far off and foreign that like a faint star in deep space, you can only look to the heavens as its light speeds ever closer.

Lo, there is still another.


link this together with the SI and weried posts from the last couple of months we can figure this out wich is so great about bugie, they drives to do this, so even though most people will skip this post because they don't have the attention span to read more than a line of text, I thank you and I'm sorry for what microsoft has done to you but now i have somthing to look forward to and you will get more attention from the press and I know all those people are calling you sell outs but this is your job and you should be able to make some money cause with out it your done for, so one last time thank you Bungie for everything you do for us. and i hope your not to angry about this week.

All of you need to cold storage, if you want to blame someone, blame sto....I mean the marketing business for this one.

Bungie isn't the only game company Microshaft wants to rely on, that wouldn't be good marketing at all, considering now that Microshaft will get less profit from software from Bungie now since they're split.

And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.

After a colossal let down, it is nice to see Bungie is making a huge comeback with this weekly update.

Future Tents= Squad based camping simulator?

Ugh. No, he was referring to future game developer conferences.

Didn't anyone notice the Hippo image on the bottom of the poster? It's the same Hippo image from the Halo 2 map, Headlong. You can see it in the un-finished tower. Plus it has some text beside it:
CDS MA9

I have a thread started in the Halo 3 Forum about this, if you want to check it out.

How come whenever you speak, nothing comes out?


I speak at a frequency fools can't hear.


real talk

Comming from the guy Bungie paid to keep quiet. I just assumed this from reading your article on 1up regarding Halo 2 as broken. You have also lowered yourself to calling people in your community nerds for making suggestions on what they feel would better the game. (Bungie Podcast) Real and respectable at the same time.

I think Marty has shorted you guys out on your Flintstones Vitamins because your updates are lacking, just like your responses.

I pretty much knew all about what you guys at Bungie had stated in that weekly update.

Beware the Pokemans!

Truthfully I was disappointed with this week's update. No new information was released, we didn't learn about the changes to the Halo 3 online experience, and there wasn't a whole lot in the update. Still so many questions and not enough answers so far...

  • 07.18.2008 6:01 PM PDT

Hey Bungie, this update -blam!-ing sucked!!!!!!! You guys said that after last weeks decent update that this one would be good. Thanks for the big dissapointment. I blame Microsoft.

That's fine, next week will be just questions from users for the Update since we're all out of office on Friday. That said, none of the questions I answer will be about the seven "things" from last week, this week's events, or the end of the Weekly Update.

Not much for critically reading a passage, are you?

Some weeks there just isn't much, if anything, going on, let alone things that can be spoken about. We were all hands on deck for E3, and well you know how that ended. There's a tiny nugget in here, otherwise perhaps the weekly update becomes the "sporadic update-when-things-are-happening update."

Of course updates are even harder when there's no publicly announced content to discuss.
