Wait... So you're mad because they wanted to do something other than Halo, cattering to a broader audience?

You wanted to continue your gaming life, and in 30 years, play Halo 23 still being made by Bungie? Really guys... This is some real childishly entitled behaviour.

No, when did I say that I didn't want them to move on to something other than Halo? I was perfectly fine with them handing Halo off to 343i and using their creative talents on a new series. What me and so many other Xbox fans are mad about is Bungie snubbing them by making PS4 their primary platform, and they have every right to be mad at Bungie after supporting them for so many years.

This silliness really needs to stop. People acting as if they're so personally offended by Bungie's slight shift towards the PS4 for one damn game. If something like that pisses you off so much then don't you dare buy Sunset Overdrive by Insomniac considering the many, many years and title after title that PlayStation fans spent supporting them only to watch an exclusive be made for the X1 after they ended the Resistance franchise and kept giving them now half-assed Ratchet & Clank games. How about boycotting Titanfall since millions upon millions of PlayStation fans supported EA and the original Infinity Ward team just to watch a console exclusive deal get made? How about the Metal Gear franchise going completely multiplatform now? Will you refuse to buy Final Fantasy after the ridiculously long and successful history it had with Sony? Stop acting like brats. At least you're still getting the damn game which is more than can be said for the first two examples. If you loved Bungie so much then shouldn't your loyalty be more for them than Microsoft? Afterall, Bungie is probably the only reason Microsoft is even still in the game.


Those are all poor analogies because none of the developers of those games were ever 1st party Sony studios. Bungie was 1st party Microsoft, and they purposefully seperated from Microsoft and are now snubbing all of their Xbox fans, who they owe much of their success and popularity to.

Bungie was 1st party??? I thought they were alwas 2nd party??

 

OH LORD!

 

So it really does seem like Bungie coudn't wait to get away from MS and Halo

 

also, doesn't MS owe much of their success and popularity to Bungie?

Lol all of this remind me of when FF13 was slated for 360... the fan rage was like a 20 over richter. The same happened when they announced about pretty much every PS2 "exclusives" heading to 360, Tekken and Devil May Cry are more examples... people are taking this too seriously. I got into Xbox mainly because of Halo and seeing Bungie going multiplat and favoring Playstation doesn't bother me at all. Almost half of the team left for 343 and other studios anyway it's not like Halo is now on bad hands.

Nobody in this thread is mad or bothered that Bungie left MS Studios.

My opinion was that bungie announced Destiny for PS4 and gave all the perks to the Sony community, without giving a shout out to the playas on Xbox.

I felt weird because I used to love them and they could've adressed the community even if they have beef with Microsoft.

They were like "bye mother effs".

And then I just left my opinion:

I hope Titanfall and Halo 5 sell better.

That's how, all the turmoil started.


Dude...seriously? Sony's ability to keep content away from Microsoft is weak unless they pay for it in full and outright. The timed exclusivity isn't even going to be that long. Microsoft got Titanfall exclusively for one iteration of the franchises life. I say Microsoft continues to get the better end of the third party deal. Sony owners have to wait for Titanfall 2. 

Let me ask you a question. No sarcasm.

Do you understand why I think Bungie is inconsiderate?

Titanfall and Halo 5 will dwarf it anyway.


No it won't Destiny will be a lot bigger then titanfall at least.


LOL Destiny will not get close to Titanfall numbers. Titanfall will sell Xboxes like hotcakes in March. Its going to be similar to the Gears of War effect, especially with Microsoft and EA behind the media circus, it might get worse.


You think so?

 

That would be crazy if Titanfall did 6 mill like Gears

 

You have to remember that Titanfall is an online only game.. i believe


Microsoft always rests their brands launch on another companies game. Last gen it was Gears this gen it will be the timed exclusivity of the Titanfall franchise. Titanfall is going to be big. Everyone knew Gears was going to be a hit and it sold Xboxes when it first came out. Microsoft doesn't really use new tricks. Very predictable company. As for Destiny, that game lost all of its hype the second E3 hit and Titanfall made its debut. Destiny was one of the most hyped games walking into E3 and Titanfall took almost every applicable award available.


Titanfall looks like Starhawk to me

 

The 1st time i seen Titanfall, i said "This looks like what Starhawk was trying to be but couldn't because it didn't have enough resources"

I can't see it doing Gears numbers for some reason though

 

I would give it major props if it can do 5 mill on Xone alone

Yeah, Bungie was first party. Bungie was making Halo for the Mac to prove it could be considered a capable gaming computer but Steve Jobs didn't want to buy them. Microsoft came up and took them and Halo ended up being their ace in the hole to survive in the gaming industry.

Starhawk never got almost every applicable best in category award at E3. Just saying. Everywhere Titanfall goes it takes over and its only been six months.

People want to me to be mad at something unwillingly.
You are mad, you gotta be mad, it seems that you are mad.
It was a fun night peeps, have a good one and feel no resentment.

It's no secret they wanted to move on from Halo, they made ODST a "full" game to get out of their contract faster. They wanted to go 3rd party for obvious reasons (more platforms. more money). Of course MS owes a lot to Bungie and Halo, it was the killer app of Xbox.

No, but please tell me. imho, Microsoft didnt have a great command over the companies they mostly purchased when it came to first party so either games were scrapped, companies fell apart or they parted ways. Bungie didnt want to be a Halo only company and Microsoft would've loved for them to be only that for years and years. In order to keep Bungie happy I think Microsoft should've split up bungie into two teams like Sony did with Naughty Dog. Destiny would've been exclusive.

But that's the thing though. The whole point.

People who are mad weren't Bungie fans. They're MS fans.

If they were Bungie fans, they would follow Bungie on whatever console they make games for.

Even overlooking the other examples I gave, the fact still remains that Sony fans gave so much to Insomniac all those years with Insomniac never creating anything for anyone else. Sony fans made Insomniac. Just the same as you say Microsoft fans made Bungie. It doesn't matter who they were owned by if anyone. What do Sony fans get? An ended franchise, a steady flow of crap games, and watching them make an X1 exclusive. What do Microsoft fans get? You don't get early beta access and probably a couple guns and a single mission that can be completed in an hour. Boo hoo. Get over it. It was because of Bungie that Microsoft got a second chance at a console. Try to imagine the Xbox without Halo. Now try to imagine someone at Microsoft telling the higher ups that they should try again after an Xbox without Halo. It's very likely that the only reason you even get to be a Microsoft console fan right now is because of what Bungie accomplished. Seems to me Bungie deserves your loyalty more than Microsoft does. Perhaps you're wearing the wrong colors.
