Although this thread may not be totally original, I feel that I owe at least this much to Bungie for the great experiences they have delivered to me for the last ten years, and great experiences they've been delivering to gamers in general for two decades now.

I have been known for criticizing various aspects of Bungie's projects, and sometimes make long, extensive threads demonstrating my distaste for certain design decisions.

But even then, in those moments of frustration, I criticized as huge fan of not only the Halo franchise, but also the developers that brought me to this awesome Universe. The developers that were the reason I bought the original Xbox a decade ago, and still the reason why I have an Xbox today.

So, if it's worth anything, I'd like to say thank you Bungie for truly making my last ten years of gaming truly memorable. With all the crap that has come out of the gaming industry in the last ten years, you've managed to make it better, and your sense of community commitment is truly unmatched.

If any of you have similar feelings, feel free to post here.

Let's be honest, it could be a lot worse.

I have very similar feallings. However I like to keep my spirits bright and not look at it as Bungie won't make Halo, NOOOOOOOO! I prefer to look at it as that it was one hell of a run, but just couldn't last forever and now we must look on at what Bungie will do next.

I believe 343i will do a fine job with this franchise. They clearly have the passion and the love for the Universe that the fans do. It's just as the latest update says; a bittersweet juncture.

There's really nothing quite like the feeling you get from taking off in an airplane, not many understand this feeling, but nothing in the world can come as close to a feeling of freedom as flight. I was born to do this.

I respect Bungie and hold a special spot for them in my heart lol. They brought us Halo, something that has become a part of my life in a way. From the fun of the game itself, to the community, to the creators themselves. We have one of the best communities and games ever.
