If I bought a shot, I'd hope I aimed for the mouth. Alcohol just doesn't have the same effect dribbling down your shirt.

I'd assume they want to do something different but I would also assume that they have a very friendly relationship with microsoft. And microsoft may have something in mind for them already.

Well there's already a one-up on Halo. ;)

Perhaps they'll make a transition. Start out with what they know, making a game that is essentially an FPS with some interesting twists, then using what they learned from the "twists" part, gradually venture out into different genres. That'd sure be a refresher. Give me that plus multiplatform and you guys will have yourself a loyal customer.

I take from this that its much easier to get funding for your first few games if you develop small projects as opposed to large expensive products. Companies like to invest in small projects because there's less risk than $30,000,000.00 grandiose blockbuster style projects.

Once they have 5-6 downloadable games under their belt with good sales track records, then they can pitch to publishers or developers, "Hey, remember how we kept asking for $2,000,000.00 and make all those successful projects? Now we need 20 mil."

Nah most new studios started by ex employees of a 1st party or a 2nd party studio have a contract with their parent company, in this case Microsoft or Bungie.

Hey, they've got quite the resume. I didn't like Halo with all the hype and all that crap, though I'm sure their loyalties will still remain with Microsoft, as Microsoft has built them up their whole lives, also considering they had that chance when they left Microsoft the first time, but still made Halo games... If they can do what other Third-Party developers are too hackin lazy to do and build a quality game for the PlayStation 3, well... Then I'm in. But I still think their relationship with Microsoft will be way to strong.

There's a possibility they know something about Natal everyone else doesn't they aren't happy with. But if they really wanted to just make other games, they would have done it at Bungie and would have made a pile of money for their games off the BUNGIE name. I don't know.... This sounds suspicious, something isn't right. Maybe they're a spy network to spy on Nintendo and Sony to learn their stratagy. Maybe Microsoft doesn't have to buy EA, they can fan out their developers and Executives to other companies who relay business stratagy for Nintendo and Sony. Developers do get new hardware for developers games and Motion Control for Sony comes out in the spring and Microsoft doesn't release to the end of the year. Hm...

As a long time fan of Bungie, these guys are irrelevant and I wish them luck. I can name about 20 employees for Bungie and I've never heard of these guys.

I always considered Halo to be a spiritual successor to Marathon. A lot of the weapons were similar, and it was space.... and the marathon symbol showed up in Halo... Ok, so there aren't a lot of similarities, but I've always thought it was Marathon's successor nonetheless.

Hopefully it will go better than Wideload.

With Stubbs and "Hail to the Chimp" under their belts, I'd say the most they've achieved so far was getting bought out by Disney.

if Bungie left Microsoft why can't they make something for us Playstation 3 ?.. Halo is over hyped and it also wasn't that good it was o.k but if these people split from Bungie then why should they still have to Strongly support Microsoft ? just cause people say Microsoft made them ? i think that's a stupid reason it's not like Microsoft owns their lives VIA Contract.

i really like too see Bungie make a game for Playstation 3 ... anyone else wanna see that ?

But they own the publishing rights...

@HedonisticKai NaughtyDog is First Party For Sony Bungie Parted way with Microsoft their's a difference so you can Dream On.


@TJFadness tho Bungie broke away from Microsoft whatever game Bungie Makes is and still can only for Microsoft ? doesn't sound like they split way with Microsoft too me.

Also for the why do i care comment. cause i would love too see them make a game For Playstation 3 and see how it turns out for them. i'm not calling Bungie Bad or horrible but also the team Moonshot games i would love too see Both of them make Sony titles as well. as for the own their lives i mean the 3 who left Bungie .. not Bungie themselves Sorry if i confused you their.

Presumably he was thinking of Insomniac.

It's an easy to make mistake, since their games are pretty much indistinguishable.
