Unless you haven't heard Bungie just released the following information about Bungie Aerospace.

Bungie Aerospace

I would now like to direct you to the following news Article

Rumour: Bungie's next game will be "WoW in space"

I would like to highlight the statement from Joe Staten

"Wouldn't it be great if we could make a world that was always there for you? Wow. That would be great."

My theory is that Bungie has created Aerospace to basically recruit "a cream of the crop" mobile & social development team to tie in with their next game (while making a healthy profit from helping new independent developers, as mobile & social gaming is huge now with the iphone and facebook)

If the PC Gamer article is to be believed, think of a MMO where you have a direct impact on the game on whichever gaming platform you have (XBOX, PS3, PC) via your phone "a world that was always there for you" whether this would be an actual mobile version of the game remains to be seen but i bet it wouldn't be far off.

You might think "surely bungie could implement this themselves?"

Well I'm no developer but i would assume that if my theory stands, Bungie's plans will be ground breaking, just think of theater mode, a technology that to this day only a hand full of studios have implemented into their games. But to have a game that stretches it's platform boundaries and is playable on multiple platforms would require an entire new development team while bungie concentrate on the "core game"

This has me very excited about Bungie's Future.

Any thoughts & comments would be appreciated, cheers
