If I put pancake mix in my X-Box 360 Disc drive will it make pancakes?

Have you or the Mail Sack panel played the game Catherine? If so, what is the general opinion on it?

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

If you were to have a coat of arms, what animal/object/item(s) would be in it?

I'm a stubborn guy. I love to argue my opinion, but unlike others, I'll try to see your side of the problem. I'm a triathlete, with a very heavy empephis on the swimming bit. Also, don't hate on the ~Quinton~ at the end of my posts. Why are you still reading this? #creeper #hashtagcashmoney for hashtaging on Bungie.net

I can't believe next week will mark, roughly four months of mail sack goodness.

Do you see the mail sacks continuing on, even after Bungie takes the bag off of our head? Or will the BWU's make a return with the news of Bungies foreseeable destiny with the uncovering of the new game.

What does Bungie think of Halo 4 and what 343 has done to Halo?

Who mans the Bungie Facebook page. Is it an intern forced to do your biding, or Jason Jones himself?

I like shorts. They're comfy and easy to wear.

1. What is the first thing Bungie does when the game is set to pre-alpha or testing or just a little demo?

Multiplayer first, campaign first?

(Halo or any other game Bungie made, as we cannnot get new info on your New IP)

2. What are your thoughts of the Titanic 100th anniversary since it sank?

Blog Post. Reported.

Not but really:

Do different types of jobs at Bungie warrant different computers/computer set ups?

For example: Do artists and modelers have Macs for aesthetics and, well, art whereas programmers and level designers have PCs that can handle all that...uh...code?

And, for the set ups, would people like Stosh who are noted as website designers have multiple screens for, well, designing whereas a writer might only have a laptop for their word-processing needs?

Anywhoo back to the mailsack question,

What is your favorite riddle or poet that probably inspires you to do something, or at least made you active.

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

I ask you once more to begin the weary trek to the Ivory Tower, risking life, limb, and hearing against the uncensored brilliance of Marty's music, to ask him one simple thing: how soon did he mean by soon?

We're pretty sure at the army that "soon" could mean anything. Hell, we're still owed a Humpday against Bungie, and that was when there was a waaaahmbulance still wheeling about. (I'll willingly wait for your newest game to be released before that humpday is cashed in, by the way)

Is a Firefly MMORPG in Bungie's future?

@Vinyl_Hb

I have only one simple yes or no question.
I know you said no more easter egg hints, but this is important. I have dedicated countless hours to this, and i must know.


Is there, or isnt there, another skull in halo 3 (The Assassin Skull) that is hidden somewhere.


Yes or no, no hints, I just need to know if it is there somewhere...

Yea I agree, I'd like to see some of the more serious questions answered.

Maybe they just wanted some better questions being answered.

I do find it annoying that questions like "does this picture represent the community" are answered while actual questions about the company are scanned-over.

Way back during the Halo Reach beta, Urk said something about a server at Buingie catching on fire. I thought he meant metaphorically catching on fire, but then I read somewhere else that something had actually caught on fire. So was Urk joking, or are we just that awesome?

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Why were you late?!?!?!

Posted by: DeeJ
Sorry this is late.


Aww, I forgive you.

OT: What's the most embarrassing thing to happen to you while at Bungie?

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

Well. Had a nice bit of dialog with Deej. I understand what the deal is with these things. So with that in mind I will ask this question.


Is there anybody in the studio who can dunk on a NBA regulation height rim?

Canada isn't that important that it needs two of the same threads on page one.

Not sure what type of questions I can ask, so I'll ask two.

1. What was the reasoning behind slowing the pace of Halo's MP? (H2 was fast, H3 as slower, and Reach just made it a turtle.)

2. Pop-Tarts or Toaster Strudels?

And if you are allowed to answer this:

3. Will "Destiny" be on the PC, and if so, will it be consolized? If you are sticking to consoles only, why?

What are your/Bungie's thoughts on games becoming more involved with motion-capture technology?

How will Bungie capture a wider audience in today's market, seeing as how everyone wants the latest technolgy as well as originality with every media outlet?

  • 04.23.2012 5:15 PM PDT

Do you guys ever stop what you are doing and do something as a company like having mini games in Halo, all going out to eat somewhere, play shenanagins on each other? If so, which ones really stick out in your mind?

Don't answer with "The Pentathalon"
