In their new 55 minute long ViDoc.

Get some popcorn, settle down, and enjoy the show.

I won't watch it. But I find it interesting how there is a company out there willing to leave behind a successful franchise for a new one.

If Bungie fused together with Infinity Ward, we would have had the best developer in the world, film or theatre or games or whatever...

It will never happen but it would indeed be the best fuse of all time.

IW fixing the core MW gameplay and Bungie doing all the MP features, website stats etc... Oh Brave New World...

IW would be the weak link. Bungie is a decent dev but IW knows nothing except for how to copy a formula.

No! I never want to happen. All the talent in IW is gone anyway. I rather see Bngie contiuing to do what they want without being influenced by greedy companies like Activsion.

It's so awesome :cry:

I still believe Halo 2 should have been the best FPS of all time. Damn they stuffed time managing and the engine so bad though haha

Quoting Bungie employee.

"We believe or next game will a game changer like Halo" :shock:

I didn't get to see the video since I am typing this from my phone, but I pray that they aren't doing some Kinect game or anything like that. And I hope it's creative, exciting, and not a FPS, as much of a fan I am of that genre.

They didn't update Reach because 343 would eventually take over and make their own improvements. They made 9 maps and all were created from the ground up for multiplayer then ported to campaign.

Bungie's next game will be on the 360, PC, and PS3... so I doubt there will be motion control.

Really? Multiplatform? I thought Bungie was just going to be PS3 exclusively...

Whatever, works for me.

Great vid.

It's wierd though, throughout all these years and all these vi-docs, it feels like I actually know Bungie. And I am god-damn proud to call myself a Bungie fanboy.

Also, keep an eye out for clues as to what their next game is. I can almost guarantee people will be dissecting the video piece by piece to see if there is any references hidden away in plain sight.

Nah, you'd just have short, linear shooters with schizophrenic level design and really good music.

And why would they do that? Activision wants money, and Bungie's fanbase is on the Xbox

If Bungie's next IP is successful, there is no doubt that Bungie is the greatest developer this day and age. Sure they created a 9.7, 9.4, 2 9.5's, and a 9.0 rated game, but most haters downplay Bungie's talent simply because they all are Halo games. Can't wait to see what journey they will be taking us on next, and I hope it's not a mmo because I'm not a fan :P

Every1 is so hyped about Bungie's new game but why? The only good game they've done is Halo, and after Halo 2 its been copy/past the sequels and releasing an expansion for 60$... Now with activision expansions will cost 70$? Not very excited for this.

You think it's impossible for them to make an amazing game that isn't Halo? Dear God, these lads will prove you wrong.

First of all, Halo isn't the only good franchise they have done, although it is certainly their best. Second, the Halo games have all been extremely good in my opinion (and received very high scores). Third, with a fanbase as large as Halo's it basically makes it very hard to make any signifant changes to the core formula without resulting in massive backlash. I don't see huge changes in other popular franchises such as Uncharted, Killzone or Resistance either. Finally, they probably aren't the ones who set the price for ODST. In any case the price really has nothing to do with their talent as developers anyway.

I for one am definitely interesting in whatever they are cooking up.

Yeah, no. You're forgetting Marathon, Myth and Oni. It's far from copied and pasted. Every Halo game plays differently. You should just watch it. Freshen up your history.

That motion capture part at the end was quite interesting. Also, I can't imagine how awesome Halo 2 would have been if everything went according to plan.

Aaaaaaaand good ridance, Bungie offiically killed Halo with Reach.

Still, I have respect for them making the first 3 games. They were what Halo was truly all about.

Stringerboy
Sigh...Reach Halo >>>>2,3 Reach was much closer to CE than 2,3 ever were.
