Bungie Studios was founded in 1991 with two goals: to develop games that combine brilliant technology, beautiful art, intelligent stories, and deep gameplay, and then sell enough of those games to achieve its real goal of total world domination. Over the past decade it has produced games such as the Marathon Trilogy, the first two Myth games and Halo: Combat Evolved, which have been hailed as classics by critics and gamers around the world.
