Subject: Bungie Weekly Update - Do You Miss it?

I feel kinda bad about this, but I'd almost forgotten about the BWUs until I saw this thread.

Sad realization my friends.

Do Work Son!

Yes, it was always exciting to wait to see what exciting new piece of information they were going to reveal next. Whether it was about updates or new playlists and especially their upcoming games.

Not really. The BWU (at least in the Reach-era) had devolved into 99% irrelevant news, and 1% actual updates. If I wanted to read/watch something irrelevant, I'd go to the Comm Chatter.

Urk's a good writer, don't get me wrong, but the updates are just filled with crap. 50% All Stars, 5% Blame Stosh, 30% Adjectives, 10% Witty remarks, 5% Reach Updates including playlist changes and map tweaks - the only real updating done.

I achieved my Recon armor through the screenshot contest Team Control, not Bungie Day or ODST. 5/29/09

I do miss the BWU. It was a highlight to my week on the internet and I hope someday they will bring it back even though it was turning into just Reach news. The information Bungie had slowly started draining away with each BWU.

Hello, I'm Mr AwesomePizza. I like pizza and I'm a man. Reasoning for the name. I like to listen to the classics of music, write poetry, play video games, and much much more. I'm always down for a nice chat, so please hit me up for some conversation.

I miss it, it was awesome.
I wonder when they'll bring it back... =(

What are we supposed to be discussing here?


"Nothing in the 'Verse can stop me."

Not really. I'd rather them not tell me news weekly if it won't be interesting or relavant!

Actually, I find that I'm more invincible without pants, which is why I am not wearing any at the moment.

A little. No news is good news when it comes to a dark period like this I figure. A quick update here and there couldn't hurt though.

Why can't we put Bungie Cards here?

I miss Urk's writing, I envy his gift with words.

Actually what I really miss are their humpdays. If those come back with their new game, I'll be ecstatic. Especially if clans are incorporated. (See that, Urk? Clans.)

Yeah, I enjoyed reading the Weekly Updates but I really enjoyed reading about the carnage that happened during the humpdays. I do miss reading the updates to some extent mainly since I don't find much to do on here on Friday nights, but it's not a big loss.

Achronos: And what's this about a "design team" I've been hearing? Apparently stosh is so awesome he's now considered a "team".

No, Urk was getting sloppy anyway.

"You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space." -Johnny Cash

Of course I miss it! It gave me a weekly update on what was happening with Bungie.
