Woot the garden of earthly delights! I just did a paper on this for my art class.

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

After reading the opening section, I felt like Urk was hinting at the slow end to the Bungie Weekly Update. How could they do this? This is Bungie.net, and honestly I care about what goes on at Bungie Studios. I miss reading about the antics they would pull and just chilling out, and now it seems those days are over. It saddens me, something great that Frankie started may be seeing an end it doesn't deserve. If the BWU ends, it would tell me Bungie has either lost interest or doesn't care. Maybe both.

Halo 3 was fully supported by Bungie until 2010! This transition may be the thing killing Reach. It's been 7 months since release and it's almost as if Bungie is trying to shove Halo out the door. Which hurts.

Interesting. Might have to jump in on some of the Super Jackpot action this weekend.

Two wise young men meet at the top of a mountain and futally attempt to push each other off while the third, much older, wise man, that was first to the top, watches. After hours of struggle a victor was decided. As the victor turns to him, too tired to fight more, and the wise old man begins his climb on another hill far above the hill he recently occupied. The victor is left bewildered and lacks the energy to climb further. The wise man and the older wise man were now in their rightful places.

A goat you say?

Maybe when i work on it a little more. i still have the other permutations to work on. my friend wants to get an EOD variant and a sniper variant as well. the current one i'm working on is dubbed guardian. if you have ideas, feel free to submit. i'm studying to be a concept artist so the more ideas i get the better.

Halo 3 (31st), ODST (14th) and Reach (4th) Mythic Conqueror. (Mythic is Solo, Legendary, All skulls on + scoring on and no deaths/saves).

Hmm, kinda wishing you'd stop hinting and start telling.

I really need to invest in the Map pack, those super jackpots are really tempting me.

Does anyone realize that this helmet is just a bicycle helmet backwards?


Almost true, your comparabilities are outstanding but wouldn't it be cool : )

everybody listen to mac2po he is 100% right

All making sense soon? Bungie aerospace will be lifting off soon me thinks.

Also, those custom helmets look sweet. Good read, and hopefully not one of the last :)

Still no update on a possible Racing playlist. Every week I check the update just to see if there is anything in there regarding something like this, and every week I'm disappointed.

Nothing else excites me anymore.

I used Photoshop CS5 to color mine, but any version of Photoshop should work they all have similar tools. I thought of the Bike helmet too when I saw yours.

oh yeah the bungie beta tester program. The one you guys screwed up and said we wouldn't lose our spots in... Yeah, I guess I must have lost my spot in that one.

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

High Quality!

I hope we get to keep our groups, or at least get the chance to transfer them on another website for when they stop supporting Halo. I hope 343 Industries makes an awesome website like this.

- Dragon Ball/Z/GT and it's merchandise are awesome.
- All "abriged" parodies are hilarious.
- Humanity, as a whole, is stupid.
- I have asperger's syndrome
- This is the best used 20 seconds of your life

I got the same impression as far as your 1st paragraph.

Halo got me hooked, but this site and the way you guys at bungie told me:

"These guys are different; they aren't just people in suits who swim in money, these aren't devs who make games and ignore the fans, these are real people who care about their fans, and are more like friends to us then poeple who made that uber game that we play".

I would be EXTREMELY disappointed if you stopped the weekly updates, probably more so than when I learned Reach would be the last Halo game from you.
