I always knew bungie would be trying to take over the world. What with all their connections to bill gates and everything. When will you unleash the robot army, and how much will this guy help develop it?

Uh oh. Looks like Frankie's title of "Master Scottish Guy" is being contested. But a warm welcome to Max Dyckhoff!

Wow!

This guy thinks exactly as I do.

I work hard at what I do (programming), I always write little programs (I even made a couple programs to make my dad's life easier at work). Any game/movie/animation I watch; I always wonder how it works and come up with rough ideas of how it's done. I spend more time thinking about how the hierarchy of game works rather than playing. When I watch a television show, I'm always observing their art and their style of animation.

If I don't understand something in programming, it drives me absolutly NUTS. I once spent 3 days trying to figure out something, and I finally got it.

Oooh oooh, new inspiration in my life!

This guy thinks like me. Today I had to discuss my grade 11 courses, I did as many computer and mathematics courses as possible (I still try to vary my courses).

This guy thinks like me :)

Oooh oooh, so excited.

Now I have a 930 C++ book to get back to.


That is all!

It has the word "Halo" in its title. That means an automatic campaign playthrough for me.

HOLY S*BLAM*! Another noobie to harass and take advantage of! Atleast until he gets a restraining order on me as well...

great interview but what i really want to know is WHAT IS YOUR NEXT PROJECT, WHEN WILL YOU TELL US, AND WHY MUST YOU PUT US THROUGH THIS IN-HUMAN TORTUREOUS WAITING???????!!!!!!!!

  • 03.08.2006 4:36 PM PDT

Phrog pilots, reckless and free. We would strap into our birds, set the engines on fire, and leave these earthly bonds with a chorus of WHOP WHOP WHOP. Akin to beating your chest and howling in defiance at the rest of the world.

Welcome to Bungie Max, enjoy the deluge of love.

If sharing a first name on the Bungie team requires an Old West style shoot-out, sumo swordfight, or Ultimate Tickle Fight, please be careful. I've heard that Max Hoberman has the speed of a mongoose and the reflexes of a cat.

Seriously, at least tell us a Name/Genre!!! US HALO freaks are growing quite anxious, you wouldnt want me to go and buy a PS3, now would you? Metal Gear Solid 4 is looking quite beautiful, and so is Zelda Twighlight Princess...well my point is if you keep us waiting, we will lose hope, and buy another(better) next-gen Consol, that offer alot more games. Hmmmmmm.....I wonder if all the Consols will evenually merge and create one Uber consol, the Play-volution 360 !!!!!!! Anyway i am way bored, and if Halo 3 is not going to come out within the next year, than screw it, Im gettin a PS3, or Revolution..., Nah. just a PS3.

this makes all pimps happy



-Was there not a time when a customizable online was promised to halo 2? Have a favorite map? Limit the game search for Lockout. Want swords only? (not really but you might) Pick the s-words only weapon type. This would make the online aspect of Halo 2 perfect.

Well, All we need is for Bungie to get more men and women to program C++ and C and we'll have an army of robotic xbox 720 "Brain implant" Controllers. Great...(Wonders off to say more stupid things) Anyway, I'm gonna just pre-order a rev. if they don't give in to the media pressure and tell us about the next game..Goat Slammit.

Any one try taking a look at what's up on his monitor? If so I hope you burn for thinking that bungie would be incompetent enough slip up and show off its next project by mistake. Shame on you.
