Subject: Should Bungie make its own console?

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

This could be a good way to ensure world domination and would help fund their slingshot that launches their enemies into space.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

The last time Bungie tried fooling around with hardware, Urk's beard ended up falling off. I think it's fair to say that we all want to avoid such situations in the future, as the beard is Power.

Urks should not handle hardware as it could cause hairloss. Please consult your doctor if rash or swelling occurs.

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

Making their own console would give them more freedom in terms of what assets they have to work with when making their game, however, it would most certainetly turn Bungie into something that I'm sure they don't exactly want. Making a successful console requires a scale that is entirely different from making a successful game for an existing console.

And Sages beard would probably nerf it also.

I don't think Bungie has the manpower to make its own console at the moment, surely it is just easier to develop for existing consoles anyway.

Making video games and making consoles are two entirely different things. Bungie would have to change almost everything that they're doing in order to do this, so I don't think that they should.

They'd also have to go dark for a very very long time. this is already depressing now.

Indeed. It would probably take years for them to switch over as well as to come up with a new console design.

Alright the general consensus is no, so I propose a revised version: A device kind of like the Nintendo 64 but have someone else design it and update the computer power. Imagine a game with that much processing and memory.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

The only good game for the Pippin was Super Marathon but a copy is like $500.00. :p

Let me reference Nintendo here for a moment as they now have an entire one of those game packs which are about 1'x3'x4' boxes from the 64 now a little square inch card . Now put modern circuitry in that box mentioned earlier and you have something that could support the entire Halo series.

Lol no, reason being that there are three good consoles out there already (with some updated versions coming in the next few years hopefully <_<).
