In case no one mentioned this yet....That sword the ninja has is not a ninja-sword...

Its a Katana....which is a curved blade used by the Ninja's enemies, the Samurai.

Ninja's carried straighter blades. If you've ever watched "The last samurai" that would serve as an example. The differences are not all obvious. But the curved/uncurved quality is.


Uh-oh...

You guys get to dress up as ninjas and gorillas and call it work. I can't even explain how jealous I am of you right now.

  • 11.01.2008 8:43 AM PDT

Maybe I will never be
All the things that I wanna be
But now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

Da Webmaster is teh Bad ass!

Typical Halo nerd. Move along.

The update was really good! The info on Halo 3: Recon was mouth watering, as always, and the pictures were hilarious. I only wish I was able to come up there and spend it with you guys...

Anything goes in war, so if an enemy calls you cheap because of the tactics you use, its because they were not able to think of it first.

NEW EP COMING SOON!

1. I am happy about the podcast being up, and that you are finally releasing the e3 podcast!

2. I don't think people care about Recon at this point, it is too early. Plus it feels like your sidetracking us, yea it will be cool a year from now, but there are other things more important, For example.

3. Mythic MAP PACK, WTF, has everyone forgotten it? You have six maps you could show, I know most of them are done aesthetically, and there is only a few months till release day. So, in effect I would think you could show a few pictures of at least one more map.

  • 11.01.2008 11:22 AM PDT

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Jack the Pumpkin King FTW!

It could have been better... I was disappointed.

This comment could have been better... I was disappointed.


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.


Does the podcast mention when the Mythic maps are due out? Or describe the maps themselves? If not, it IS useless.

Did anyone else have around 15 minutes of dead air at the end of the lost show?

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".

*goes back you exploring the Capital Wastes*


Don't you know? Bungie thinks the "Stay constantly cryptic, overly theatrical, and cliffhang EVERY TIME and people will love it." with their games, and "Stay an -blam!- group, repeat about NOTHING every single week, don't work on all the (still constant) issues with the matchmaking games like horrible lag, kills that don't register, and headshots that don't register, and let's downplay every gamer's wish...even if they're pissed off, by sounding like -blam!-s back. THAT'S professional!" for their updates.

I don't know if they care or give a -blam!- about what we really want, nor will they ever. Thank God at least the Fileshare//Bungie Favorites this week isn't made of piss and -blam!- like the last week. But god-blam!-dammit Bungie fix your goddamn issues already!


Twice today I sword-lunged a guy WHO WASN'T AWARE OF MY PRESENCE as a zombie. TWICE. And both times the kill not only didn't register, he had enough time to turn around, and clock my zombie brain with a shotgun shell.

God you have GOT to stop this bull-blam!- of just pissing around not doing anything REAL to your game.

If I heard it right, Luke(?) said that there won't be any salamander or Arbiters in the game. Arbiters I can understand but salamanders? No Elites? =(
