I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

Reach was a good game. But that's it. It was not good by Bungie standards.

Hearing Bungie employees speak of Halo: Reach as their 'best game yet' lowered my respect for them as a cool group of people, because you could tell that they knew that it was not, and that they then did not listen to their community and just waited for 343 to clear up after their miss (or so called 'Swan Song'). Inb4 'Bungie makes games they want to play!' Rubbish! They make games that can sell. They are a company.

I am a bigger fan of Halo than I am of Bungie. However, I do appreciate Bungie a lot. Hopefully Destiny will make up for Halo: Reach and their lack of a response to their loyal community.

I'm a fan of Halo 1,2,3.

My fanboy attitude towards Bungie was severely dented by Reach. I will never understand how they allowed it to be released. Terrible game.

I fully agree. I guess I measure every game against 1,2 and 3 now haha.

Came for Halo, stayed for Bungie.

imo Halo 3 was almost as "bad" as Reach. So I thought similar of Bungie when Halo 3 came out, but ODST proved me wrong. Reach again wasn't that convincing, but I think Bungie was quite fed up with Halo.
And now Herr Jones finally took the reins again after not being involved in any Bungie game since Halo 2. I have high hopes for Bungie's next big thing and don't care for Halo 4 because now it's just a Microsoft game and not a Bungie game anymore.

Let Sgt. Johnson die on Halo.

I was only really just a Halo fan until 2004 when I started browsing Bungie.net. I saw that the company was extremely involved with their community. From that point on near Halo 2's release, I started becoming more and more of a Bungie fan.

After meeting some of the employees a few years ago at PAX in the ODST booth, I decided then and there I would be by Bungie's side even after Halo was done with.

I'm still willing to give Halo 4 a shot even if Bungie is not developing it, but I'm much more excited for their new IP.

In this order:

1. Halo 3
2. Bungie
3. The rest of the Halo games
4. The rest of the Bungie games.

You got stuck by FalconStickr

Bungie all the way. They have this ability to create amazing worlds that no other game can match up to. I think this next project (Destiny) is going to blow our socks off.

I'm a bigger fan of Bungie than I am of Halo. Hence why I'm posting here and not on the 343 forum.
