Is this a joke thread?
*EDIT: Oh shit, it's a not a joke: http://www.bungie.net/News/Blog.aspx?mode=news#cid25920 . What are they thinking?
**EDIT: Oh, it's not that bad. They just want Bungie to create a new IP. Bungie remains an independant company and still own their intellectual property. Still, seeing them associated with the company of evil, Activision, makes me cringe a bit. Also: Halo on PS3?
Also, to answer the question... I doubt this is going to change the way Microsoft see first party titles. They own Halo (at least 343 Industries), that's all they will ever need IMO. They'll keep on releasing timed exclusive titles this generation if they can.
Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...
