Personally, after watching the ViDoc I'm pretty underwhelmed. No PC release? With such a focus on how our character looks, why first person perspective? Why did they show essentially zero gameplay for this "reveal"? Why not wait till you have something substantial to show? I love Bungie, but for me, this reveal was pretty weak.

The more and more I hear about this, the more and more I wonder if this is what Blizzard is working on with Bungie, and is Titan.

I guess my level of enjoyment depends on if you need to know the people you play with. If it's like Journey and it doesn't really matter who you play with then I might be interested. But if it's a game that's best when you play with friends then it's not for me.

I simply don't know enough people that are interested enough in playing videogames for that too be fun. If I had more friends that were into games then that might be really cool, but unfortunately I don't.

I wonder if the game will feature actual songs with lyrics now that Paul McCartney is attached to the project?

When they say "working on it for a decade" does that mean the game won't be out within the next ten years or is that the planned lifespan of the game?

This game seems cool and different with a great sci-fi setup. However, I'm not to into the multiplayer focus and focus on "dungeons" and other MMO concepts. With dungeons and loot comes grinding and probable micro transactions. I would much rather have a more narrative focus and a single player story with optional co-op. Thats just my opinion and I think this game should be able to find an audience. Also, activision would have to be insane to not port this to PC.

I tried to pre-order at Bungie.net for their 'special content'. They blocked my ISP. Good start Bungie. I'm off the bandwagon. It looks like Rage/Halo/Sphere integrated with bullshit social media. Ambitious? Yes. Moneygrubbing? Yes. Generic? Absolutely

It's so generic I couldn't wait to pre-order it!!!

This sounds a lot like the early Halo talk, from back when it was a Mac exclusive. Interesting that they never really got away from wanting to make that game, I am glad that their tastes have matured though, I could never really get behind the big green space marine with the motorcycle helmet. The art looks fantastic, seems a very peculiar choice not to develop for PC though.

This thing being PS360 is really weird. Sounds like a consummate PC game.

And it will be weird if it goes current gen and next gen combined.

Sounds a lot like an MMOFPS. Hopefully they'll reveal something later on to differentiate it from other games in the genre.

So Bungie made a

  • First-Person Shooter
  • Involving humans fighting against aliens
  • With a multiplayer focus

I'm sure the game will be neat but come on. Apparently there's weird rhino people on Mars you fight? Why can't I play as one of those? I WANNA BE A COOL RHINO DUDE

A first-person shooter with a (alleged) Dark Souls / Journey multiplayer structure seems interesting, I'm in.

That activision exec looks pretty pumped to see a man in his underwear.

that official 'vidoc' was pretty vague and self-aggrandizing. don't get me wrong, looks intriguing- but it's a sci-fi shooter with some pervasive mmo elements. then again, i'm not a big fan of halo, so whatdoiknow about bungie.

This is sounding an awful lot like a first-person MMO that they're trying as hard as possible to not be labeled as MMO.

Jeff's hair could use another 9 months in preproduction. The light clipping can be ironed out before launch
