Subject: Do you think bungie plays other games than games they made?

I'm pretty sure they do but still I need some other people's opinions.

He needs our opinion...of course they do!

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

They must. They'd be bad game makers if they didnt.

There was a Half-Life sighting in the most recent Vidoc.

No, they exclusively play their own games.

Just like best selling authors only read their own novels.

During their pentathelon they subject themselves to intense battles on Guitar Hero and other silly games.

Hello! You may also know me as Ijnekono. How you have made your way here I do not know, but welcome. (:

Yeah, if they didn't play other games, they wouldn't know what game elements do well and which don't.

If you're reading this, congratulations. You've just pressed a button to find out a little bit more about me. Not that you will, but well done anyway.

Of course they play other games. Its the best way to grow and develop.

To give you a specific example, I remember, a few years ago, Bungie mentioned that Turn 10 had sent them a copy of Forza Motorsport 4. They were appreciative of the gift.

As has been mentioned before, the best way to build better games themselves is to play games produced by the competition. Also, how could people in the video game industry not want to play as many different games as they can?

hi well i think that the cod's suck and the Halo's BeAsT

Bungie employee's aren't limited on the type of games they play during their free time. I always see Bungie employee's here and their playing Call Of Duty, Arcade games, etc.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

They must. They'd be bad game makers if they didnt.
Precisely.

I know some members do, and I have no reason to assume others wouldn't.

Yes, and like how musicians only listen to their own music.

Of course they do.

Didn't they all get a copy of Black Ops?

Yes, we play a lot of games other than our own. People generally don't get into this business if they don't love games.

Personally, I'm playing a lot of Frozen Synapse for fun lately.

Quite the unintended plug there.

OT: Of course they do, just like movie makers watch other movies, sports players watch/play other sports and musicians listen to other music!

They're only programmed to develop and play their own games. Be warned, they're also programmed to lie about playing other games.
