If you haven't been living under a rock for the last several months is has become apparent that Bungie's next game(s) are going to expand off the xbox 360 and move to other systems. Before i begin however, note that i am talking about Bungie's next game in the sense that this will be a full game, not simply an addicting, time-passing, arcade game.

Now as a gamer who originally attempted to buy the xbox for halo, and was ultimately told by his mother that she would buy the next generation of that said console when it came out, it was a natural decision for me to buy the xbox 360 to keep playing halo. It also influenced me to buy PC computers so i could ultimately play any game i wanted. (AKA Halo for PC [i was very obsessed with the original halo as a young child])

Well times and needs change so i ultimately became the owner of a MAC and PS3 as well as my old Microsoft companions. The question that has been floating around my head, as well as Bungie's heads, i am sure, is what platform will gamers buy the next game on. I love my xbox for the online and competitive play that has been its cornerston, but the graphic on my PS3 far outstrip anything else except higher end computers which, unfortunately, i do not possess. Then again, gaming on my pc has never been a bad experience, but the portability of my MAC makes it a competitor in this fight as well.

On top of that the mobile phone and tablet gaming markets are skyrocketing. Casual gaming has become more popular than the solo adventuring or online competitions that we gamers cherish. This may be a growing trend around the world, but Bungie also has to look to the handheld market that already has an established grasp on the children and public transportation commuters of the world.

Considering all of this, the question posed asks you to say what platform you would spend money on, and which system would be your primary method of playing bungie games. This is not to preclude the possibility of buying bungie games on multiple platforms, but instead which would you prefer to play them on. I am sure that i have named every primary system but if you feel I missed something pick other and explain why.

Yes, there're too many numbers in my name.

If it came out on the Mac, I'd certainly be confused, and would want to buy it to see how they've matched the hardware to the game itself.

But I would buy it for practically any system, with the exclusion of exclusively being sold on the PS3 or Wii.

Got a question, comment, or concern? PM me.

The only console I have is an Xbox and my PC can't run jack, so I guess it will be Xbox for me.

If it's not on PC I'm not going to bother with it.

None.

Probably Wii U as I've grown disgruntled with the 360 platform and my current 360 might die soon anyway. I'd get a PS3 but long installs, long frequent updates and a lack of interest for exclusives has put me off of it. I think I'll get into PC gaming after Wii U's time. It'll probably be super cheap and a little less complicated by then.

I came for Halo, but I heard the Tru7h, fought thru Carnage, and stayed for Bungie.

I think we'll be able to play the same game on the same account/username/career/etc. across platforms. This is assuming they provide cloud saving. I would like to play mostly on my 360 but then switch to my MacBook for stuff that doesn't require as much power.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

I assume it's coming out for the next gen because the next xbox is supposed to come out next year.

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

Mac/PC depending on the system requirements.

(If it will even be released for Mac)

The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.

The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.

As you waste your breath complaining about life, Someone out there is breathing their last. Appreciate what you have.

If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything.

Chief vs the scarab? I find that hard to believe to roundhouse boot the scarab's figurative emotion out of the gaming zone.

It's where all of my friends are and I'm assuming that I'll be able to play this game with them.

360 or whatever the next gen M$ system is, if the game isn't out before then.

PC, preferably released for linux but most developers don't do it...

  • 01.25.2012 11:00 AM PDT

Hi I'm RT and I like to argue!

I want to buy it for PC, but if it's heavily multiplayer (i.e., I'll get more use out of the MP than SP) or if I'm not in a position to have a sweet gaming PC by then, I'll probably revert to console.
