My prediction: Some of the developers at Bungie will break off and form a new company that makes games for other platforms. Bungie will remain an MS-owned company and continue to make games for the 360.

Did you see the size of the bonuses that the Bungie team got paid? It was something like 25 million... If the development team was around 150 people, everyone gets about $170K bonus... I doubt there are too many people that are itching to bolt out the door...

It's not always about money for everyone, you know.  Plus, some developers may feel there could be more money in developing for other platforms, or perhaps multiple platforms.  If they just got a huge bonus, then they're in a position where they can take a risk with a new venture and still be financially secure if it doesn't pan out.
