How close have you been actually following Bungie? They didn't develop Halo Wars, and had little at all to do with that game.

I've long supported Bungie, even inthe days when I worked Retail decades ago and Myth was being sold.
You could say I was pushing Bungie.
Since ODST, Halo Wars & Reach I've been steadily feeling less like following Bungie.
Aerospace for me is another corporate attempt to cash in a become a mini-activision in a space that activision won;t kick up a fuss.
Who cares, seriously, for indie mobile gamer developers there are heaps of free and open source toolkits, frameworks and portable engines to create your game with.
Just look at UDK, XNA, Adobe, Unity, iOS xCode and so many more paid frameworks beyond these it's not even funny.
Now start to think of how many financial grants/investors are out there world wide for the mobile games/apps development.
It's a cash grab, a market share steal and something to keep the masses at Bungie.
Good on Bungie, it's good for the mobile community. However, me as a Bungie/Halo fan it's not something I care about and I don't really play mobile games longer than a few seconds.
I hope they have more to impress and keep me around with their new universe. If the new game IP isn;t out of this world fantastic them I'm outta here and how do I close my B.net account?
