I didn't get teh reconz, lol. However, those were some of the best Halo 3 games I've played. Everyone one was determined to win, so the competition was friendly and great. Also, the High Population meant low search times. It was awesome.

Yea, that day was full of great games and great people. So many people were in great spirits because they were all looking forward to playing against Bungie.

Sadly, I never got to play with you guys. I however, didn't put all of my heart into it, and probably didn't play more than 15 games. I don't think some people realize just how lucky they are to even get half a chance to play with the Bungie workers. I just can't believe our world has been conquered by a few drunken men. Well played Bungie, well played...

Every game I would say, "You're not Bungie! LIAR!" It was fun... but dissapointing. A full 24 hours and ZIPadeeDOO....DAH! Oh well. Got some achievements cuz I never play matchmaking, but I lost some good friends as well. Lack of sleep = anger = bad = friend go bye bye. Sad Face.

Bungie day was a blast, congratulations to everyone that won the special prize.

Looking forward to next year, fellas.

  • 07.10.2009 7:32 PM PDT

First and foremost. I had a great Bungie Day and enjoyed playing on the Bungie vs The World pllaylist and experiencing all of the community-made maps.

All in all, I really didn't like the prize of Bungie Day being Recon. It made the day about Recon for a lot people rather than about Bungie and it's fans. Although I did see some discussions where people were being good sports about Bungie Day and it's drippity droppity reward. Plus the armor is available to everyone in few months via Vidmaster Achievements. (Which seemed like even more reason you guys were just gonna drench us in Recon.)

To all who did get it, congratulations. The good part in all is next year we will have another Bungie Day and hopefully you guys won't be so busy and loaded down but you likely will be with Reach. My expectations are high. :) - Oh yeah , my appreciation and thanks go out to Shiska and others who helped make Bungie Day this year what it was with the playlist and all. Hip Hip Hooray!?

Hey, its no big deal, but I was in the first game of Bungie vs. the world, and did not receive a suit of recon armor. Like I said, its no big deal, if there's a way to still unlock it for me, you would have my thanks. If not, I can wait until ODST, it's just armor, not like it kills anyone more easily.

Thanks,
Love, Arc

Hit me up sometime, i have a team that you might have fun playing against.

PS. Happy late Bungie Day!!! You have the thanks of the entire community for making such a kick-ass series. Keep it up!

im reading all these posts, and i just cant see how u can have fun in that -blam!- playlist.....playing the same thing OVER and OVER and OVER again....it was just plain -blam!-. after 2 games i had no interest in it since i knew i wasnt gonna play bungie. it just pisses me off that they were dumb enough to put only 4 -blam!- ppl in that -blam!-....this update meant nothing to me considering the secret metrics were stuff, apparently, put together by a 4 year old...i wasnt happy on bungie day i was just plain mad. 4 out of almost 200000. 50000 to 1 odds of finding them. i dont know why i -blam!- care anymore. it was a -blam!- day, its in the past, i like 1000s of others just gotta w8 for halo 3 odst....to u 1000 or so people who got recon thru the -blam!- metrics, good 4 u. u were lucky the bungie people were drunk when they were thinking about them.

Hey good job BLACK0UT237... At least you didn't submit that in the news like those other people. lol

“To me, Heroic is like a make out session. It's where I start things slow, take my time to explore the nooks and crannies. It lasts longer, and maybe isn't as satisfying as a Legendary run, but it gets me familiar with the game's rhythms and structures, which help[s] me enjoy it more when I take it to the next level. I always head into Legendary on the follow-up play session, as that's where the magic is.” – GhaleonEB

Thanks for a great day Bungie! I had a lot of fun and a whole lot of laughs. I played for about thirteen hours straight and I had a blast. I finished the day with 46 exp, but unfortunately did not win recon. That's okay though, I can always get recon through the vidmasters.
