Subject: That Vi-Doc was BS.

It's the best thing from Bungie I've watched so far.

I have nothing to complain about because I respect things and don't make it a responsibility to criticise everything until it's perfect.

Seriously. Jesus some people need hobbies.

Dude there was nothing wrong with the ViDoc . It was just a way for them to properly say goodbye to us , it was not meant to be funny .

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.

The lack of soffishes was quite disturbing.

Or was it?

Who cares about BR vs AR

I sat through almost an hour to only come out with pure rage at some things that were in or should have been in that vi-doc.

*One dramatic glance to the left from Tommy Boy in the begining. Thats it? No scenes of him like Pvt Pyle talking to his shotgun? Fail.

*Barely any awesome Lukeisms. Not enough great stories of him kicking ass during LANs and cussing his ass off.

*You guys were going to cut the shotty from Reach? I bet Achronos threatened to hold his breath until it was put in. I would have liked to have seen his reaction to it.

*We should have seen Wolfson trying to tame the Hydra. He should have been wearing a Fedora and using a whip.



The most violating thing of this whole thing resolves around Tyson.

HOW IN THE HELL COULD YOU SHOW HIM WITHOUT HIS HAT?!?!?!?!?

The greatest Bungie mystery was what he looked like without it on. It was supposed to have made women swoon and men weep. Now the magic is gone. Thanks a ton to who ever decided to put that in. Now I have to go cry myself to sleep.

Post away at what you thought could have been done better.


There wasn't enough Chinese food in the vidoc.

I at least wanted a mention of forerunner tank.

I would like to be a Mythic Member, or a mod.

REALLY BAD. I believe I deserve it, I am very loyal to the dear Bungie forums and want to keep everything in tip-top shape. Its always a real pleasure to be on the forums and I want to be recognized here.

I recall this being about the past twenty years, when it all revolved around halo.

My quench for marathon will never be satisfied.

Did you knew that JESUSdied for you?

The documentary was an awesome way to recap 20 years of a great gaming experience, not to mention a tribute to the community and it's fans.

Instead of being critical of the vidoc itself you are only complaining about minor comments and unrealistic and ridiculously specific criteria that wasn't mentioned.

I really hope this is some kind of trolling becuase you are still sad that you are still butt-hurt you aren't a forum ninja anymore and not an honest imparcial and childish take on it.

At least show show respect to what took hours of work, admit you didn't like it , instead of giving the inmature opinion that everything that you dislike is "BS" or worse believe that your unfounded subjetive opinion is fact.

Be warned that your forum post will hardly change the opinion of us halo and bungie fans towards the well-documented inspiring story the vidoc was.

Almost a ghost.

I loved every part. It was absolutely incredible to see them throughout the years and see every jump that they've made. I'm starting university next month to begin Computer Game Applications Development and I've never felt more inspired after watching this.

The fact that this ViDoc alone was created is a testament to how dedicated Bungie are to us, whether people choose to believe it or not.

This may not all be relevant to the thread but I felt I had to express my gratitude to Bungie somewhere/somehow after watching it.

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

You know not what you do.

In addition, I'd say the "The greatest Bungie mystery" is the Bungie name itself, no?

  • 08.05.2011 7:55 AM PDT

You're mad because they showed Tyson without his hat? I don't see why it's a big deal, or even a deal, at all.

I just got done watching it. I like the movie quote from 2001 A Space Odyssey. That was cool.

I personally liked the whole ViDoc. But I guess I would like to see Lukeisms sharing more great stories of him kicking ass during LANs and cussing his ass off.

I have only been a major Bungie fan since Halo 3, when I got my 360... But I loved the Vidoc, while being severely disappointed with some other aspects of it.

From what I've heard, it's pieces of other ViDocs(Reach Legendary Disc, Halo2 bonus disc, etc.) along with chunks of brand new stuff.

But the largest part that hit me as I was reading here... They only touched on the Mac days, sure they gave Marathon a five-ten minute piece.... But where was their beginnings other than a quick overview. It was primarialy about Halo. Maybe it was just overhyped, or way to high expectations, but when they said twenty years of Bungie, I didn't think another Halo ViDoc with a bit of history...

That said, I still loved every second, and almost cried realizing we're losing Bungie until Destiny, or whatever is next.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

There was a lack of Frankie. Why wouldn't they put in Frankie? smh...

  • 08.05.2011 10:15 AM PDT

I blame myself, not Stosh.

OP is disappointed for all of the wrong reasons. I was disappointed that they thought Reach was the perfect game to encd on with a high note. They were clearly wrong. Those people having that much fun in the basement playing Reach is something that has never happened to me or anyone I know. Bungie should have just accepted it.

  • 08.05.2011 11:18 AM PDT

Way, way, WAY too dramatic. Needed more lightheartedness.

Way, way, WAY too much praise for ODST and Reach. It was almost silly.

  • 08.05.2011 11:27 AM PDT

You know you've made something good when people nitpick like they're starving monkeys.

It's just like Reach.
