I would like to make a toast to Bungie and all.
This is the first time I'm saddened a service has been shut down. That being said, let me explain. I started playing XBL and this game when I was like 14,15, im now 21! For the entire year the game came out I stayed up every night till 4 am playing solid for days on end. Fast forward to now and we're shutting down by far one of the best online games there is for consoles! Time has flown!
This is to all the times we've had, all the people we've met and played with. All the people we teabagged, cursed at for 30 minutes at post game lobby. For all the nerd rage, joy and excitement we got from getting bull-blam!- snipes, getting bull-blam!-ed on.
This is to 5+ years of some of truly the best multiplayer experiences I've ever had.
Cheers!
