It's a sad, sad day for Bungie fans - swing by Bungie.net for full details. The short version: the announcement many have been waiting for eagerly - a new game, new Halo content, whatever it was going to be - is not going to happen tomorrow. Plans have been changed - no new date is announced. Update: we're getting a lot of mail from people who are speculating that this is a stunt (to build excitement for an announcement tomorrow), or that Bungie.net got hacked - I can confirm, after speaking to more than one Bungie spokesperson, that this is no stunt, no joke. This is real, and they're as unhappy about it as we are. (Louis Wu 02:03:06 UTC)

UK, July 16, 2008 - The ongoing saga of Bungie's no-show at this year's E3 has been given another little twist, with Microsoft's Don Mattrick confirming that the now independent developer is indeed hard at work on another instalment in the Halo series.
Speaking to MTV Multiplayer, the head of Xbox business said that the amount of content in Microsoft's conference on Monday squeezed out any news on the extension of the Halo series, and said Bungie is actively working on a new game that is neither Halo Wars nor the awaited Peter Jackson project.
The news comes off the back of heightening speculation about Bungie's presence – or lack thereof – at this year's event, which climaxed in an open letter placed on the developer's website apologising for the no-show. Meanwhile, the countdown to its heavily touted announcement - which was expected to happen at 7:07am PST on July 16 - continues, though in light of the recent news many expect the deadline to pass without fanfare, or news of a fresh Halo title.
"Fuck Halo, what we need in order to get people excited is MORE SINGSTAR! But we can't call it that, so Lips or whatever the fuck you guys want to toss out."Quote:

Yeah, so... This guy I know got the #1 clip in the newest MLG Top Ten.
Really shitty quality but overall it's a pretty good top ten and obviously the clip I'm talking about is fucking ridiculous.
See, now THAT was a solid top 10. The warthog rocket, grenade rocket double kill, and killing frenzy were all awesome. SWAT later?
Nomes and I made a playdate for TS. Let's do that and have my 2 months of rust derank us all.
Plus my 2 months of rust. We are so going to be level 30's by the end of the night. :lol:
Well with my new awesome connection I will probably start pulling host. I'll just IP flood everyone on our road to 50!
