"A LIE is a LIE"


- Truly intelligent and deep Black ops trailer

As we all know Bungie originally intended for CE to be an RTS, so it would make sense that Bungie would look to other RTS's like Starcraft for idea's and inspiration -

Starcraft had three golden races -

Terran, a military led government (basically the UNSC)
Protoss, a heavily religious race (Covenant)
and Zerg, and parasitic race (which are pretty much the Flood)

and the Xel naga - an extinct race with similar abilities to the Forerunners.

I wonder if Bungie plays starcraft II, I wanna know their league :P

Do you know what kind of hat I'm wearing?

A party hat; you don't get one. An honor will this party be, a party in your honor, for your honor. Some of Tfear's personal guards are going to be there. You'll be introduced shortly.

Prepare to die.

This thread appears every weak. :/

OT:
Lots of companies borrow from each-other,Bungies main source was aliens and starship troopers.

Edit: spelling

We should know better, because we are better.

Bungie borrowed from aliens primarily. Starcraft borrowed from Warhammer 40k primarily. Bungie has a list of inspiration and other things somewhere here. Will try to find it.
