My hotplates go to 11.

i didnt think it was possible to be funnier than when it was written, but waaaaahbulances are a hundred times more hilarious when read out by a american with a whiny voice.

good job on the whole thing, i loved it

Heh, awesome.

First off, the logo. I actually really like it. Props to bungie for that.

Second, the podcast. Awesome-er.

The theme is ridiculously funny, and I love the announcer guy. The humerous undertones through the whole thing really made it worth the listen.

The placeholder sounds are hillarious. Really nice add-in.

And... I'm not sure what that Halo 3 sound is... the last one could be the Assault Rifle, but I expect it to sound a little more like the original than that. Maybe a turret?

As for that background sound... almost like a train?

Also, the horn that bleeped out Alta's words... was that the Halo 3 horn? ;)

The waaambulance in particular was perfect for a podcast. Being read out loud (and elaborating on the spelling) made it 10x better.


Great podcast, keep 'em coming! And I look forward to listening to the second, extremely *juicy* one.

Next time we want to hear more from the dialogue booth. That or free banana flavored popsicle’s for everyone. I’m certain skipper Alta Hartman can hook everyone up, such a sailor mouth.

Okay, listened to the entire sprawling, boring and generally unimpressive waste of time that is the Bungie podcast.

JOKE!

Seriously, nice work Bungie (Frankie and other PR types). Really enjoyed the Whaaaabulance.

I would really like to hear more jokes made at Shishka's expense though....

Awesome update as always, except this was awesome to the max! But like others before me, I don't really like the new logo better, I think it's because the color is a little too green, and reminds me of being underwater for some reason.

But I really really liked that awesome first 3d concept design logo. I thought that one would be great for the Halo title.

  • 09.22.2006 6:43 PM PDT

Mess with the best, die like the rest.

The podcast was awesome. I liked the mystery sound idea and the fact that you guys read waaaambulance email...but more specifically said what type of cheating the sender did. The princess sounds hot, and I think I wanna hear more of her if you don't mind.

Please make this a weekly thing...it's great!

Not that you two community gurus should quit your day job or anything, but is this podcast a parody of the SNL skit called Delicious Dish?

u guys could put any crappy logo u want on the cover i would still buy it and probably every other nerd in these forums would 2 and good update by the way

  • 09.22.2006 6:49 PM PDT

Rock On.

Awesome update. Made my week.
The podcast was pretty cool. I liked every section of it, especially the MM update and Whaambulance. I laughed out loud hearing those letters. The only thing I really didn't like about it was that it was a tad hard too understand in a few spots, (mostly where music cut in a bit loud).

I haven't checked yet, but I'm totally downloading the theme song for my phone if it is in fact available.

-Quaere verum.

Got a report? Use the report tool or send a pm.
Chairleg Productions presents: 'Console Wars' and 'Games as Art?' (also on Halo Waypoint).

Nice up-date, but needed more pictures.

Ok, so i enjoyed the podcast, but the audio levels really need to be worked on; not sure if that's my computer/speakers or not. Also, it kinda bugged me that we had music playing while people were talking, again though, audio levels would sort this.

One idea i had, not sure if you guys are planning on it, is to try answer any questions Bnet members may have, so kinda like Frank has done in written form in up-dates gone by.

Oh and i'm still working on working out that mystery sound. I'm thinking maybe some sort of vehicle...perhaps…of the heavily metal plated variety?

  • 09.22.2006 6:51 PM PDT

For help...

Jay should've worn pants and put in way more cowbell.

For fun...

I soooo know what the mystery sound is.

Hahaha, working at Bungie must be a hoot. I'm more impressed at how genuinely funny and relaxed you guys are on your first podcast than anything else. 55 minutes well spent.

Loved the update, but could you please put the podcast on iTunes so all of us iPod Podcast junkies can hear it! Thanks for taking time out of your busy day to even MAKE a podcast!

  • 09.22.2006 7:03 PM PDT

OMG
Master Chief w/o his Helmet!


Stosh <3's me vicariously... at least someone does...

I just finished the whole thing. It was great! I would defanitley look forward to listining to these on a regular basis. Bobs voice is tragically perfect for the wammbulance lol.

One thing I might add though. I think releasing them on a more regular basis (like once a week) and having much shorter segments would be a good idea. I rarely have 55 minutes to just sit at the computer, and today I used 55 of my 65 minutes listining to this lol. But it was worth it!

Is Master Chief the next Mario? What's next DDR Halo, Halo Hoops?

Halo 3 logo: The Making Of...

Worst making of ever....

  • 09.22.2006 7:14 PM PDT

Sweet, love the new logo. SInce I'm majoring in Graphic Design I respect everything visually that you had to comment on about it. Great logo. Simple, obviously the same feel but with a more battled appearance. More bleak. Thanks, setting it as a wallpaper now. Please let us know when the 3rd party comes to Cingular & TMobile. I have Cingular and have been wanting some themes. I've taken a couple pictures of the Master Chief and placed him as my background picture so some themes to go with it would be pretty sweet. Keep up the great updates.

:p Nice update. Now, to my cell phone! =D
