The FPSMMO part isn't bad... It's the way they're planning on taking every ounce of money out of you that's bad. How in the hell do they think they'll get away with selling it for retail with subscriptions (2 if you count "special services"), micro-transactions, and an expansion every alternating year. I'm sorry Bungie but I'm not a mindless sheep. I find it offensive that you'd sign a contract that treats me as so...

I think the next thing Bungie should release is a Bungie-rumor-specific version of the good ol' Jump to Conclusions Mat.There's no jumping to conclusions with this. We got a fully detailed 10 year plan from Activision/Bungie in the form of a legally binding contract. There's no "jumping to conclusions" with that. At this point you're just blindly denying it.
Yes, a legally binding contract that due to protection of Bungie's Intellectual Property Rights, was released in some of the most obscure language that they could put on paper while still proving to the court that the Bungie/Activision partnership was in no way a threat to Infinity Ward/whoever those two yahoos are that's suing Activi$ion.
Bungie develops a new Sci-fantasy FPS with certain elements of MMO's in it's design, Activision is just the publisher whilst Bungie keeps all/sole rights to the I.P. (meaning once this 10 years is done, Bungie still gets paid for their games. ;))
But it's the obscurity of the language in the court document that is causing to bunny-hop around in their conclusions and to speculate with wild, hedonistic abandon.
Blame it on the courts. lol
