Subject: What the hell does urk mean by "riffing off"?!

Rumors are being passed around as much as stosh's mom recently, but in the recent week or so there were no rumors. A Bungie employee said their game is an MMO. Now, urk comes along and writes that that was a joke. Then he said the guy joked on it being an MMO to (and I quote) "riff off" the rumors of the game being one.

SO IS IT DEFINATELY NOT AN MMO OR POSSIBLY AN MMO?!

WHAT THE -blam!- DOES URK MEAN BY "RIFFING OFF"?!

THIS IS -blam!- TORTURE, BUNGIE! TORTURE!!!

Please announce something soon... :)

I was confused by that too, but I think it was confirmation that there next game is not an MMO.

+7 internets for that one.

They just cleared up the fact that Aldridge's (sp?) statement in his GDC presentation was a joke. Take that as you will.

"Ignorance is a plague."

Close, but the plague killed those infected with it, and the ignorant are still alive.
I wish ignorance was a plague.

No one understands what he is saying.

Pronounced "Nay-uss"

It kinda means he was improvising the joke, fleshing it out in response to the rumours.
