Subject: Bungie Weekly Update: 06/05/09

Bungie truly pulled something out of the hat this year at E3. For all the time's i've moaned about faulty spawn points and screamed many a cry of 'WHY WON'T MY BR WORK!? WHYYYYY!?!?' over Xbox Live, all was forgiven as The dazed and confused Rookiee jumped out of his Drop Pod. That night in matchmaking I made a promise to myself not to complain about Bungie once.

That's where I expected it to end, but, in a typically Bungie Style, for all their cloak and dagger over the last year with new information, we recieved a slew of amazing news! I definitely can't wait to witness the fall of Reach with Spartan 259 next year. And even better, a game that could even possibly contain Dr. Halsey, my favorite Halo 'Novel' character next to Captain Keyes, made me squeal with joy!

Congratulations gents. For all the times we hate you for not saying ANYTHING THAT MAKES SENSE about your future projects, we sure as hell love you for when you finally unveil the excellence you've been working very hard on.

P.S After that long and overtly praising message, some of the finest Schwag E3 has to offer would be great! Quick question for anyone who wants to answer, is this Swag available to win for UK Halo fans? If not, my entire post is rendered moot. Except for the bit about how awesome Bungie were at E3 =D

i heard... that its shishkas skull... bungie x-rayed his head and put that in as the oddball, they did so that they can put shishka in every oddball match to keep an eye on us to make sure we dont cheat remember this next time you go into oddball... shishkas watching...


PURE WIN!

The swag looks awsome and it was also good to get some info on e3 ODST and reach

that t shirt with ODST on is awsome

A great week of updates, cheers Bungie. Can't wait until Sept 22.

  • 06.06.2009 4:11 AM PDT

3 months. It's roughly 3 months until ODST drops. It seems such a long time away, and yet so short too considering how long we've already waited. Damn, September's going to be awesome...

Already Preordered ODST Collectors Edition. Bungie, I am very anticipated for your next game (like with halo 2, halo 3, and now ODST). I wish the best of luck and for ODST to be as successfull as your past 3 games in the Halo Series. I look forward to playing ODST along with Halo:Reach. I hope I get the cool swag!

  • 06.06.2009 4:14 AM PDT

Wow, biggest info. in a weekly update in a while. This answered all my questions...half-answered on Dare's GIANT head. =P Well, great job urk.

whoa i had no idea you could discuss bungie news, i think bungie had a great E3 this year, Halo ODST looks amazing, and that unexpected announcement for Halo:Reach was one E3 '09's highlights.

  • 06.06.2009 4:19 AM PDT

Time flies like an arrow; fruits flies like a banana.

Hm, I feel like I already knew that last picture... Strange...
More ODST -> more good.

Dog carcass in alley this morning, tire tread on burst stomach. This city is afraid of me. I have seen it's true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "Save us!"...

...and I'll look down, and whisper "no."

Thought the animated Dare .gif was funny, would like to see an avatar based off of it. As for the story leading up to that I was very confused.

I love it when you tell us little storys like that. This one made me think, which is cool.
Congrats on a successful E3 guys, Was a'lot better then that year we don't talk about.

ODST swag, awesome.

Oh and Fire Fight FTW!

  • 06.06.2009 4:24 AM PDT

Cant wait for ODST to come out now and want more info about reach but ill have to wait, i suposse ill just reread the books to get up to date about reach.

E3 coverage was awesome, and i cant wait to get my hands on the silenced SMG and the silenced pistol, gonna be fun, ill preorder when i have the money! :-)

Also cant wait for firefight!! Theres so many things i cant wait for! its gets quite frustrating.

Wort Wort Wort!

The information on Halo 3: ODST and Halo: Reach blew my mind except for that BR thing. Well, I guess that SMG should be able to make up for it.
Anyway, can't wait to explore New Mombasa!

poor Dare :( .. ;)

Good to hear Halo: Reach is an FPS (an has been used as to say FPS is to pronounce it as "eff pee ess") I can't wait for the MP demo, let alone ODST itself :D. The Bungie Halo legacy lives on for another 2 years. World Domination is almost a certainty now....seriously.

  • 06.06.2009 4:30 AM PDT

Can people in the UK enter for bungie swag or US only?

Either way ill cross my fingers, and toes if i could..
