A lot of you here complain it sucked. Seriously guys, do you realize what Bungie does for you? They could easily choose NOT to have updates. But they do. Even when the guy who writes them isn't there. And none of you seem to care that it seems the pistol has now been confirmed (yes some German magazine said it was in there, but until you hear it from Bungie, you never know). I'll tell you what. I bet you can't list five other gme sites of prereleased games that have as many updates and info as Bungie does. Some don't even have forums! Appreciate what you have.

I agree. I really appreciate that Bungie cares so much about there fans and has somebody write weekly updates for us. I thought this weeks Bungie Weekly Update was funny and a good substitute to Frankies.

Please stop being an ass it's bad

Ok, well this one wasn't great. So what? Do you prefer just not to have updates? If we never had updates, we wouldn't know half the things we do about Halo 2.

And, you know what? If they're so bad, then don't read them. Nobody makes you. But Bungie employees take out the time just so you would stay entertained. You guys just want them to come out and tell you everything about the game. Well get off that drug you're using. That's not gonna happen. That's one of the main things that's going to keep Halo 2 great. The anticipation.

ok i apologize.

the update was ok and bungie has done alot for us.

were kinda spoiled though, so we have high expectations for stuff

I thought Bungie's Euro Dash was hilarious.

i preffer not to have them if they keep making them as crappy as the last 2


Dude. Come down. They won't. But we want Halo 2 right? And to get Halo 2, Bungie employees have to *GASP* work. So Frankie will not always be there holding your hand. Be glad they at least tried to make you happy with the updates the did have.

oh cry me a river...if you'd rather not have them, then stop reading them and complaining! boohoo, so frankie was gone and thy prolly want to save some info on what they've been doing for OXM?....just a thought. If you're so mad that the last 2 weren't up to speed, and you'd rather just not have updates at all, act like there are no updates and just don't read em, don't be a baby....

Then don't read them. Because guess what? The closer they get to the release date, the more of a crunch Bungie is going to be in. And the more the crunch increases, the more the kind of information you're selfishly demanding from the updates will decrease.

Oh ya, now that we're on the subject of Bungie being involved, what about the books? You'd rather not have them too? Sure, they weren't master pieces. They weren't supposed to be. But just ask yourself this: would you have gotten as much of a kick out of Halo if you didn't read the books after? No, you would think that's the whole story. You would have no idea how MC got to Halo. You wouldn't have as much insight on the Covenant. The books give them character you know. Would you have something to hope for in Halo 2 except for shooting? Not really. Now, shooting isn't bad... But Halo's storyline is what sets it apart from other FPS. Just showing you that as another Bungie thing.

Go here: http://www.idsoftware.com/ You know what that is? That is the site for id software, the creator of the greatly hyped Doom series. I'll tell you, they are amazing. But, that's not the point. Tell me if you see a consistent stream of updates on there. What about a forum? Nope. Not saying id software is bad. I'm saying Bungie is good.

Genius! Pure Genius! Frankie, your'e fired.

Great Update!! Lot's of cool new hidden information, *wink* to Bungie Princess. To bad most of the people in these forums don't read, comprehend, or appreciate what they see. You made a good stand-in for Frankie. As far as the hair thing goes, uuuummmm, I say Blonde is best!

Alta, I’d like to publicly apologize of behalf of everyone here.

Without any other real means of communicating with you, I just wanted to say that I’m sorry for all the crap that certain pricks have been hurling at you. Wanted to say that by far and large the bungie community is 100% kickass, sans said pricks. Most of them are probably half your age, anyway.

This thread will probably be awash with flame and/or lockage soon, but just wanted to say that I, and probably many others, are ashamed of the flame war that erupted in the update. You kick ass ;-)

Blam!

Hey, I have a challenge for all you Weekly Update - haters. Go write a better update and post it here. Right now. Oh My -blam!- God! You can't! You know why? Because you don't work at Bungie. And if you did, you'd see how damn hard it is to do your job and still take time off to entertain the ever "faithful" fans (sound familiar to any of you?).
