Dear fans,
Not every single post to Bungie.net constitutes an "update." In fact, the vast majority of the stories on our website are NOT updates. By design, those updates happen at most, once per week, on Friday. Just as they have for years now.

While Halo 3 and Halo development clearly makes up a huge portion of our website, we have and always will use Bungie.net to also shed some light into the inner workings of our studio, our people, the day-to-day shenanigans within the team, people and events in our community and anything else that strikes our fancy.

If you are only interested in project updates then I encourage you to stop by on Fridays for the weekly update rather than wasting your time reading a story you have no interest in and then coming into the forums to flame about it.

Sincerely,
Sketch


I'm interested, if I offended you I'm sorry. Its just that I thought we we're getting "pictures" of "something" :P

EDIT: I just figured out they were last week, sorry lol.

Enjoy your penathlon! xD It only took me three tries to spell it right.


And even then its not quite right (typo?) if not, go view the b.net homepage lol.

Bungie, a video (720p???) of these Pentathlon events would be greatly appreciated! I'm off to find snax now kthxbai...

The Pentathlon discussed in previous postings have been great, I can't wait for this one...
I am among the many who would love to see a video also...
A day of endless food and beer..... didn't Thanksgiving already happen? Even so... if you have the means, certainly do it every chance you get... have fun guys, and keep us updated.

Not too many strange requests. All most people care about is that the food and the alcohol never runs out.

... And now I'm Strangely Hungry. >_>

My Best Bungie moment: finally beating all the Halo games on solo legendary.
My Worst Bungie moment: not seeing giant stuffie grunts in the Bungie store.

Sounds like it is going to be a lot of fun. Wish I could watch/participate in it.

Plekpedia - The most epic site in the history of ever.

Why are some people being jerks about this? Its funny, cool, and apparently delicious! Give Bungie a break, as Sketch said, this isnt all about Halo, its BUNGIE.net

Not going with the Mac and Jacks will prove to be a very un-wise decision. That is one of my favorite local beers in Seattle, I can only hope that you made this decision to sub in a keg of Manny's. Let me know how it tastes...

  • 12.02.2008 8:08 PM PDT

You guys need that keg attached to intravenous drips for everyone; energy supply!!!!
