Subject: Bungie Weekly Update: 10/31/08

Well lukems, you met my expectations of having a god awful update. First, I dont care about Recon. Well I do, but I KNOW its far away so Im not expecting much yet. Yet the udder lack of the mythic map info is terrible. Its done. THEY are done. I am all but 100% sure they are done. You teased us with Assembly. Which was fine becasue you actually showed something. The achievements are waht broke the camels back. You give us the names of the maps and then all but pretend they dont even exsist. They only thing you say is, "Winter".

Halo 3: Recon Update
Even though there is no new news about the Halo 3: Recon title this week, I am looking forward to the information coming in the following weeks. I am very curious about the new content that Halo 3: Recon holds.

Listening to the Podcast at the moment.

Every one of these Halloween shots are amazing. I am more than impressed with the amount of talent and time that goes into making all of these.

Trick or Treat? Happy Halloween!
Demon Jerome is not to be messed with. Hilarious webmaster photos. The Webmaster and the Bungie Ninja are pulling the sword and throwing a peace sign with the Chief.

You cant deny the fact that as a fan, these recent updates have been less then stellar. Most of the stuff is just in-jokes and other esoteric topics about fellow employees. It may be funny do you, but to me its just another lack-luster update filled to the brim with nothing of use to me.

An update that includes over 2 hours of podcast is anything but useless.

Dont get too wrapped up in the Internet. It's already forgotten about you.

Lacking info, but more than made up for it with the pictures.

Those Halloween in game forge shots were pretty damn amazing.

I don't know how people do it.

Awesome new pictures from Bungie Studios! They gave me a good laugh XD. -CB

How long will it be until we get some Mythic Map info to drool over and hold us over until the maps are released?

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.

Loved the update.

Takes waaayyyyyyy too long to download the podcast though.

Did that download incorrectly or is there actually 20 minutes of nothing at the end of the lost podcast?

  • 10.31.2008 6:09 PM PDT

It's going to be awesome when the new info on Halo 3: Recon come out. Windex? It doesn't contain booze does it?

Heh, nice to see the Webmaster out in some form or another. And with Ninjas. Too bad he hasn't set them on fire by lighting his match after pouring some bad bourbon on them.

Downloading the podcast..now.

No one can complain until they've listened to the podcasts.


Why must I be forced to listen to the podcast to learn of any information of real interest? I don't understand why any information from a podcast can't simply be posted here.

I find it strange that the podcast is being featured so prominently when it is the one thing on Bnet that is treated like a red-headed stepchild. The podcast is not released on a regular basis; it's only released when time and interest by Bungie's employees permits, and its publisher allows, which is fine. But I find it silly to ask people to chew up bandwidth (so much so that they had to host it off of this site) and clog up storage space simply to learn information that can be easily posted here.


Yes, God forbid you actually have to do something to learn something, not just have it splattered on a screen for you. Many people like the podcasts, myself included, and they provide an excellent look not only into the Bungie Products, but the actual people behind them. You can't get tone and inflection from looking at something on a screen nearly as well as you can from an actual audio file. And how much space is it really going to take up? Listen to it, then when you're ready, simply delete it. Lazy.....

The new host for your podcast is far from awesome. Steady 58 kb/sec . :|

  • 10.31.2008 6:48 PM PDT

The podcast isn't censored, awesome =D

YES! A NEW PODCAST!

The Ninjas are coming, the Ninjas are coming!
