... That is completely and utterly false. Your friend is either lying or he isn't very bright.A friend of mine, who I would consider to be quite bright, said only a few days ago that he was looking forward to Halo 4 'because the original team that made Halo 1 were working on it'. The rumour that 343 are composed of a great number of ex-Bungie employees has spread far and wide, presumably because it is what people want to believe.
In reality only a handful (you could literally count them on one hand) of those in the employ of 343 worked at Bungie; none of them worked there during the Halo CE era. That doesn't mean the group at 343 are not an incredibly talented group, but I still feel the need to correct those that spread this rumour, as it suggests Bungie lost a great deal of their talent to another company, when that is not the case.
They have treyarch guy who made zombies and a bunch of others who worked on various AAA titles. So yeah, they got some smart people, but Bungie master race.
