In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Did a Bungie employee tell you becuase no one told us anything.

When I grow up I want to be bitter and spiteful.

Entirely true.

Does anyone even read these?

Definitely, because when you no longer make Halo games it means you can no longer make any other games.

For Carnage Apply Within - We played Marathon before Marathon was cool!

Keep it authentic...

Bungie closing down is like saying Yoozel is quitting drinking.

Now Halo being turned over to 343 Ind. Is more sensible, like Yoozel getting kicked out of a bar then moments later finds another bar down the street.

(Bungie is here for the long haul)

Just doing some late spring cleaning. Moving stuff around.

Entirely true.

No it isn't, Bungie is only passing over the control of Halo and shutting down some forums. Stop posting misleading information.

What are we supposed to be discussing here?


"Nothing in the 'Verse can stop me."

Only the Halo forums are rumoured (confirmed?) to leave BNet to join 343i forums.
