RANT: No, it’s not Actibungie…so relax

RANT: No, it’s not Actibungie…so relax

As I’m sure you’ve all heard by now, Activision and Bungie are going to be doing some serious hand-holding over the next ten years.

That’s no small feat, considering that Microsoft has done everything in its power to keep every Bungie game up through ‘Reach’ exclusive to the 360. While hordes of gamers, and even journalists, from every corner of the interwebs have already begun to ‘cry out in terror’ over the deal, I can’t help but think ‘is news really worth all the hoopla? Or are we all getting ahead of ourselves?’

They were replaced by two “bouncer-types” who showed up without warning and refused to explain who they were and what they were doing at Infinity Ward HQ. What the hell is going on here?
