Then go to Waypoint. It's pointless to talk Halo here.

"I'm sorry man, I don't even know why I got in on this side... SHOTGUN!!!"

In the Bungie Universe forum? Where Halo is part of the Bungie Universe? And people talk Halo in this forum?

How is there no point? Because you see Bungie as some type of mainstream conformist or something?

And.........how does this effect you at all? What're you mad its not a game like you thought it was?

  • 06.30.2011 8:16 AM PDT

Reach for Halo!

I dont agree. I am more Bungie fan then Halo fan. That is why I am posting in the BUNGIE UNIVERSE forum instead of a halo forum. But I dont agree with OP. This is only more of a reason for me to get an ipad! Thanks Bungie!

No, Bungie simply supports it.

It's kinda like EA and Activision where they act as a bridge from game developers to the gaming community.

It effects all of us, Social games and iPhone games are killing the industry, so what does Bungie do coming off of a bunch of AAA titles? Publish Social and iPhone games. Bungie just wants to make sure they don't go under if this crap destroys the gaming industry.

Brains beats brawn get used to it

Fear the Red Comet

Variety is the spice of life.
Long live games.
Death to all fanboys.

So how does this destroy the industry exactly?

  • 06.30.2011 8:20 AM PDT

Look buddy, you really should have read the post before you criticize them. Bungie is not making social mobile games. Bungie set up a program to help other companies make social mobile games. It's basically a "big brother" program for game companies. Bungie helps smaller game companies get their foot in the door. That's how I read it at least. They even said they're still almost solely working on their new IP, not mobile games.

And what, are we supposed to carry hardcore games on our phones and play them while we're sitting around? That sounds great, i'll just pack CoD, Halo: Reach, and WoW on my Droid. It's not ruining the gaming industry, it's just a new part of the gaming industry. There will always be a market for hardcore games.

Congrats, you just figured out highly intelligent marketing and company preservation techniques.

You know Nintendo used to make playing cards a hundred years ago? They saw an oppurtunity and took it to make even better games. Now they're one of the biggest videogame names ever. They knew the popularity of videogames would explode and leave there original company in the dust.

This does not mean Bungie will stop making games, this is merely a tool for smaller companies to use.

You're coming off as extremely selfish and immature. "If I can't keep Bungie to myself no one can have them!"

  • 06.30.2011 8:23 AM PDT

Sure it is a bit of a disappointment only cause its not their new game. But hey they are helping smaller companies which is something that should be commended and they will tell us more about future plans when the time comes.

  • 06.30.2011 8:24 AM PDT

Yeah, casual games like Angry Birds are very cancerous.

I didn't say they are. iPhone games aren't even games. They are a wast that are Destroying the industry, so what does Bungie do? Help kill the industry.

No I'm not, I'm angry that they would contribute to something that is only hurting the industry. over the past 4 year Bungie has been doing more and more to make me hate them. Now I completely hate them.

Very few games even Break a million anymore, only the few big franchises do. More and more people are moving to the mobile and social games. They are a blight on the face of the gaming industry.

You need to take a course on marketing because what you've just posted gives me the impression that you don't know jack about demographics, niches, and how correlation is not by itself causation.

Huh?

Halo breaks millions, monster hunter breaks millions, final fantasy break millions, CoD breaks millions, Fallout breaks millions,pokemon breaks millions,elder scrolls breaks millions, God of war breaks millions, little big planet breaks millions, uncharted breaks millions,starcraft breaks millions, CnC breaks millions.



I find it rare that games don't sell millions now

Oh look a bunch of Huge name games with big marketing campaigns. In gamer's eyes if it isn't a huge brand or doesn't have a huge marketing campaign then it isn't worth it.
