Don't want to stomp on your hopes, man, but I don't think you can just call and set up a time to come in and look around. From what I've seen, it doesn't work that way.
What I said before is that I would never just show up without an invitation, not an appointment.
Now with that said, fans have occasionally had luck when they just show up, and sometimes a kindly employee will stop and say hi or even invite them into the lobby. But for every one story like that over the years, there are many from fans who were not allowed in the door, so I would not count on that.
These kinds of posts happen pretty frequently here, and in these threads, someone always mentions what I think is good advice: try to put yourself in their shoes. Remember that Bungie is a place where regular dudes go to work. You wouldn't want people hanging around outside your office and taking your picture, asking for "office tours," asking questions about confidential projects that you are working on, and trying to peek into the building when you open the door. It's uncomfortable and weird for them, and as a Bungie fan, you shouldn't want to put them in that situation.
The better course of action is to attend events like PAX, where Bungie employees can, if they choose, come out and talk to fans in an atmosphere where they already know to expect fans, questions, and photo opportunities. It's much more comfortable for you and for them, and sometimes, fans who attend these events even end up getting invited by Bungie to special receptions or events held at Bungie's HQ. That's the better way to go about things, IMO.
