Bungie is long gone. Split in half when 343 formed and those that remained have long since scattered. Hell, it's weird but with Jason Jones being at 343, thats the closest thing we have to what bungie used to be
Marty states he knew his time at bungie was done soon after destiny. The company was no longer the nerdy boys club. It had become copratized and instead of t shirts and stale pizza at 4 am it was contracts startbucks and a dress shirt. RIP to that old boys club that made games with soul
You people this while forgetting that Marty also sold out when he signed the deal with activision. He was part of the downfall as much as everyone was.
This video is so tragic... Bungie's fate marked the dawn of a new age of darkness in the gaming world, where the most recognizable FPS franchises have devolved into soulless, monotonous, money-making machines.
That's capitalism, baby. In the eyes of a corporation, everyone is a giant sack of cash waiting to be punctured for that green paper to fall out. Publishers, being the money and authority behind game development, hold too much power and control over developers, who need money to make games and to make a living. Inevitably the publisher will latch onto a good developer, leeching off what money they can from their successes through investments, and over time the developers will be asked more and more until they can't take it anymore and quit, are fired, and either way replaced with people who don't have a trace of history with the original games that made that developer famous. Look at Rare. They're not the same people who made Banjo-Kazooie. They're a shell that uses the name of a once-great company for the reputation it brings. A puppet organization controlled exclusively by Microsoft. Bungie is effectively that, but more controlled by Activision. Now they've sort of broken free after the issues with Destiny 2, but they lost key staff along the way, meaning even if they're not a puppet, they're still not the Bungie you knew and loved. They're just a shell using the name of a once-great company for the reputation it brings.

Ill never forget going over to my neighbors house to play Halo. Just 1v1 in multiplayer was a treat. Then I begged for an xbox for christmas shortly after H2 dropped. Then Halo 3 i was in the pouring rain in September camping outside gamestop with my mom to get a copy of Halo 3. This game will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you day one bungie team for making the best memories of my childhood.
@@user-ft4bl4lh9w reach sucked balls compared to halo 3 or even 2. It killed the competitive scene, added sprint, added bloom and had a campaign which was overdramatic. The only good things about reach was its music and forge.
@@lucelenthawk3543 the campaign was not over dramatic buddy, people died off, you didn't see carter crying when cat died you fucking idiot 😂, it did make you cry at the end but I didn't force it, noble,six started out as a long wolf and died as one 😂
This video is a monument to all your sins Bungie Edit: Bungie still peeving people off with Destiny 2. The monument remains Edit 2 as of 2021: Bungie still has crap that peeves people off, the story is actual something now though. Either way, the moment perseveres.
I really miss the Halo Community. ): We use to be so huge and friendly, now where much smaller and there are a lot of rude people now. Oh well, I'll always have my memories of the countless hours I put into Halo 3 custom games :D
And now you can pour more hours into Halo 3 custom games through the Custom Game Browser in Halo: The Master Chief Collection. The games are still going strong to this day. :)
@Hatwox ReCore was panned on everything EXCEPT it's story, where most said it was the only redeeming quality that never faltered. Staten is a genius at writing.
It wasn't public enough but we've all ready the story about how the "cool guys" at the top of Bungie decided his story was too weird, ostracized his team and decided to make a story that was one million times worse. They brought that on themselves. Perhaps under a Microsoft Management something would have prevented them from doing such an unprofessional treatment.
I’ll forever remember Bungie how they were, not how they are in the current day. I miss this level of passion and creativity and I’m grateful I was able to experience it as it was happening. Thank you to all the amazing people at Bungie who created these unforgettable memories and experiences.
hate to say it but seeing sadies frozen dad in odst, h4, and cheif reaching out to cort in h5, are the only times in halo i felt anything, and nowhere there is freaking reach(i laughed so hard when jorge threw the player off tht spaceship, i was so happy when kat got her head poked with a pinkie..heh serves her right for not taking cover without sheilds, seeing purple cortana was special though, she has never looked as good as she did in h2 ever again), although tht village girl who banged on jorge was hot. ure standards must be low if u found reach emotional, im not expecting telltale good, but reach was just so bland storywise
***** odst had 4vehicle levels, and i hate vehicle levels(halo ce did it best with combing vehicles with boots on the ground shooting). reach multiplayer WAS amazing? um why dont u just keep playing it then? as someone with a 360, it is the only reason i pay for gold(el dorito and h5forge/h2/h1 cover my halo needs on pc fine enough). unlike h3 on 360 its not dead yet. h5 storywise was just a giant tease/waste of time for h6, but thts still something, we found out abt magic rampancy curing water, we got to see wht sanghelios looked like..it looks alot like the cloning facility from starwars ep2, we landed on yet another freaking halo ring/ark/whteve, and the cortana/cheif/warden dynamic was..interesting. and it had the most adorable floating ball lady monitor evr. we didnt learn a single new bit of info from reach, its characters dont say anything but military grunt talk(its like if cod had all the story ripped out from it), therefore to me it had no story.
***** h5, the story of how a heart broken 40/50yr old man meets sarah palmer(who thought he'd be taller) and finds love again. yeah im glad 343 went the way they did. and btw mc shows the most emotion in h5(he was pretty emotionless even in h4 bar the end scene) then he ever has in a halo game. h4's im a hologram but i can multiply and came out from the blue floor and tie the diadect up bdsm style, oh and teleport u to safety the very second u set off the payload bomb, even if 'most of the rest of me is down there', was the most ludicres non sensical ending evr. also the fact tht ure hologram can teabag means h4 is the greatest thing since sliced bread
***** the struggle of doing missions without cort, we hv tht its called h3. i miss the heartless badass cheif who was ready and willing for cort to die in inembercald. "where is she cheif?" "she stayed behind..now lets shoot something!" wht missions would u hv lonesome cheif do in h5, help arbiter fight covies? kill the remaining promethan who are screwed now tht their leader fell off a bridge? not much of a story there. i thought the warden taunting cheif abt killing cort was great. "she already knows wht ill do" damnson!...jen taylor in inheritence wawaweewa! if uve seen the h4 making a hero vidoc ull know the blonde lady who did the mocap for cort was a better va for cort than jen
I think Microsoft and Bungie did a lot of good together. Its when all the Activision and Destiny stuff started that it really fell hard. Also as soon as they fired Marty, I knew there was no one there to respect anymore.
11 years after the upload of this video and this is the first time I am watching this video. It is coincidence that I stumble across this video now, as I am getting older and slowly saying good bye to games/franchises I use to play and grew up with. I honestly feel this is the end for me and Halo. I am forever grateful for Halo and what it did to me and the world. Halo, Master Chief, Cortana, and old Bungie, you will live forever in my memories. *Salutes*
evilphoenix 007 I know, some did literally told me I had no facts, when literally anything 343 has done felt half-finished, crap, and, misleading, and not as it could've been. It's sad.
bungie had high hopes for destiny during the making of this documentary, i just want them to tell us what happend with the game why did it not have the bungie charm the bungie effort and love
Alot of people like to rag on activision's involvment, but truth be told, alot of it was due to engine constraints (their engine wasn't golded by the time they were in production), the rewriting of their core story to enable a longer experience rather than a singleplayer campaign, and the ambition to drive a console-led MMO that hadn't been done since like forever (FSO is the only other game that comes to mind).
The 20 minute mark has almost put me in tears. Looking back on my most fond memories and how they were forged by this group of dedicated players is phenominal.
This video is the reason I wanted to get into game design/developement, but the value and comradery that existed in this video has long left the gaming industry due to corporatization and greed. The gaming industry used to be a safe haven now I don't even know what it is anymore the soul and passion is gone.
Watching this now (2015) makes me feel happy and sad at the same time. Like a lot of other gamers, I grew up with Halo. I spent whole days at a friend's place playing Halo:CE and Halo 2. I was addicted to Halo 2's Multiplayer. Fast, I fell in love with the games and started to inform myself about the developers behind it, Bungie. I respect Bungie so much for what they did since they exist. They were and are so awesome, I just dreamed to meet the team some day. Halo 3 was the reason I bought my 360. I played the game to death...really enjoyed all the Halo sessions I had with my friends. It was such a wonderful time. I even miss Bungie's Vidocs !! Today i wonder what went wrong. I don't blame Bungie for Destiny. The idea behind Destiny was solid and good. I think everyone just expected to much from it, the players and the developers. ( I really think that people expect more from products today than 10 years ago, but that's another story.) I feel hurt by the fact that Bungie's team split up after they finished their Halo run. (People left to join 343i so they could stuck with Halo). Marty left Bungie and sued them...Also other important people left the studio. I ask myself : "Why? Why does this have to happen?" It hit me quite hard to be honest. And it makes me even more sad watching this documentary..I feel sorry for Bungie, that people didn't honored their last game (Halo Reach) how we should have, considering it was their last halo game together. I feel sorry for the team to have gotten intern problems...I feel sorry for their struggling with Destiny. After all they are the fathers of console multiplayer fps-games. I am left here watching this documentary and remember all the great moments I had with my friends and with this game. I know this is complete Utopia, but I wish they would have continued making Halo Games and adding a new trilogy of the Halo series. With Marty as composer and everyone else on board! I thank all of you for that nice experience ( Bungie AND the Halo community) I miss you.
+lifequality Marty didn't left Bungie, he was fired for not shutting his mouth on how Activision has control over the artistical decisions of Bungie. He kept moaning until they fired him. The other thing is, that Activision or bungie (but more likely Activision) has cut the game AND the story into pieces to sell them to the gamers separately... It's been proven that all DLC we got so far, should've been day one content... (Source Lawsuit Marty vs Bungie). They did that intentionally.... The hate since launch day is well deserved!
I'm playing Halo: Infinite while watching this vid. I think its finally safe to say that 343 has captured at least a fraction of the magic that was 2000s Bungie. I grew up on your games; from playing CE after school when i was in Kindergarten with High Schoolers to playing Marathon and Myth on my dusty old Gateway 2000, you were a big part of my childhood, continuing on into my middle to high school years with 2, 3, and Reach. I play Destiny still on occasion. It's gotten a lot better. I'm still anxious to see what you do as the series progresses. I believe in what this company stands for. I hope you all do too.
*Long comment ahead* When I was 7, I played my very first console based FPS and I loved it... The game was Halo Combat Evolved and thanks to my dad not being the best one in the world to hide what he's playing (he didn't even change the channel) I got the time to check out the game that he had played so much. I started up on the 2nd level and saw a car in a huge tunnel. Apparantly my dad couldn't drive for shit so my very first thing to do was to take the Warthog and I jumped the ramp (you know what part I'm talking about). Just as I got to the big open area with a bunch of Covenants starting to shoot at me, my dad came in and took the controller away from me. A few weeks later he let me try it and I got to shoot some aliens. I wasn't good, but I liked it (he knew that I was a nice kid with no aggression problem at all). A couple of years later my friend got a 360 with Halo 3 included and I hadn't played H2 yet (I hadn't even made it through 343 quilty spark mission, fuck that shit) so I succeeded to talk my dad into borrowing Halo 2 from his job (a youth recreation center) and after a few weeks he even bought it from the job. Flash forward to the end of 2008 I found a box with Master Chief's helmet labeled on the side in his wardrobe (I had to change pillow and I knew where they where) I didn't tell him that I saw it, but I did tell a friend on the Tennis. This was just a week before Christmas and I was overly happy the whole week, my dad didn't know why. At the start of 2009 after I finally completed the campaign, I saw some multiplayer gameplay online (I think it was Anoj's top 10 series that got me, can have been RvB too) and I managed to talk my dad into getting a router to play online. I swore to myself that even though Bungie would leave, I would still be active on Xbox Live. Flashforward to 2013 when Bungie left (wich I never thought would happen) and 343 took over to make the next Halo, I had my thoughts that this might be it. They may actually kill Halo for ever and therefor give me no reason to stay on Xbox (wich I in late 2011 learned was just behind the technology of PC) and build a powerful gaming rig instead. Halo 4 got released, I waited a few days to buy it since I had seen gameplay of it being pretty odd for an Halo game. I finally got my copy and started to play the campaign instantly... I hated it! They tried to copy other game, especially COD, rather than keeping to the roots. I thought that the graphics were unfitting and the story was just not Halo. What really killed me was that rather than being a complete badass, Master Chief almost cried almost all the time! My number one hero almost CRIED! It was like he hit puberty or something... I decided to give Multiplayer a chance since they fucked up the Campaign. That was even worse! It was literally a crossover between COD and Halo with more aiming towards COD. Multiplayer and the Campaign was dead and I knew what the future of Halo was. I tried to keep up with my promise, but I just couldn't. Today I got a high end gaming rig that I built for 850€ and I'm maxing out every one of my 57 games (most triple A games that I bought for less than 10€ each, some even 5€, and some in a six game bundle for 1$) and I'm currently saving for an Oculus Rift. I'm really hoping that Destiny won't be a console exclusive and that they will think about the community as much, or even more than they did back in Halo 3 and Halo Reach. Thanks to 343 I'm now a student in an IT school and I want to become a qualified game designer and make my own game exactly as I want it to be. *TL;DR:* Halo was the only string that held me attached to my Xbox Live account and 343 cut it off
Ugh I still wish we could have gotten Joseph's original Destiny story before the first delay and they fired all the original Halo designers and writers..It may be the old in me but I truly believe that game would have been amazing. There's so many of the old Halo fans that have abandoned this company because of all the misleading and lies over this game and what it turned into..
It's hard to believe such an amazing studio as Bungie would end in a Dark era that they currently are in right now. Wish they could just return to their former glory and just be amazing as they once were. Making fun and Memorable games was once they were known for....*Sighs*
This shit is downright painful to watch now, especially the ending. In the same amount of time it took them to deliver one of the most beloved franchises in history, the studio was torn apart and became the very thing they despised. A corporate-minded shell with a Stockholm syndrome fanbase.
I miss these days. When human imagination, passion and human spirit was REAL ! And i love that Jason said "MORE COLOR!" about the covenant. Because that was what became do beautiful and memorable about them to this day.
They got rid of one of the main things that made Halo Halo. Marty.. those scores are epic and drove the emotions that connected you to the game. Wish 343 would bring him back.
It’s really sad and depressing to see what has happen. I really do miss the old halos they felt like bungie cared and loved the games, they put pure love into them. I’m watching in 2018 and if bungie reads this... please make gaming great again. I love your love for halo and the passion for spilt screen and story telling.
Interesting how the split with Bungie and Microsoft/Halo pretty much had the worst case scenario for both sides. Bungie was slowly turned into something it wasn't by Activision, and Halo was arguably turned into something it wasn't and drove many fans away. Only recently have 343 started to get some of that Halo magic back from what I've seen in the Infinite trailers (aside from the horrid graphics) and Bungie has barely gotten away from Activision and once again saying they're looking for independence, while at the same time accepting money from NetEase.
im a new halo fan that started playing halo with mcc in October 2019 but I love your games more and wish I was born in the early 90s so I could have been alive when the halo games where cool I was born in 2009
Feel free to judge me, but ODST was my favorite Halo game. I don't really know about the multiplayer side of any Halo game because I don't have Xbox Live. This means that whenever I gamed (before I got a gaming laptop) I would play a Halo campaign. I haven't played Halo:CE or Halo 2 because they were a little bit before my time. I can tell you that I have played every campaign from Halo 3 and on at least 3 or 4 times (at least 20-25 times for Halo 3 :P). I don't know what it is about ODST. I mean I just love the whole atmosphere. I liked experiencing the Halo Universe through an ODST's perspective. I loved how you had to uncover mysteries and try to stealthily avoid groups of brutes that were seeking to destroy anything that moved. If you were seen, you would have to use cover much more than in other Halo campaigns. It's not like everyone can get kick-ass armor! I also loved how there were many perspectives throughout the game and all of the missions were VERY fun. I could go on and on (as if I haven't already) about how much I love this game, but I think this should suffice! :D Thank You For EVERYTHING Bungie!
I'd recommend going back and playing Halo CE and 2. They were pretty good especially the first one. It was my first console game to play so I grew up playing the series. ODST was my second favorite, wish they all released on PC when they release the collection for next gen.
Jesus I fell asleep on this long ass video and had a dream I was playing halo on my ps4.. you need to bring the halo series over to sony I bet you will make tons of loot...
I was born in 03 and i've never had those OG experiences like yall did, I was too young and didn't have an xbox in my early age. But I remember in 2010, I was at least 7 or 8 and I visited my cousin's house and he got a game called Halo Reach and we played forge and Multiplayer for hours and then switching to Halo 3, It was so fun. But the real kicker for me was the last week of 6th grade in math class. Now in math everyone had a PC and my friend found a Halo Combat Evolved or Custom Edition file on the web and he downloaded it and we all followed through with it. About 80% of the class is playing Halo CE playing slayer and capture the flag. Me and almost my whole class just dukin it out on Halo at school. It was one of my life's best highlights and what got me into Halo and our math teacher was so down for it because he was also a hardcore Halo 2 multiplayer only kind of guy in how he described it. I played the old games first and worked my way up to the new ones. I love Halo im still hopeful that one day Halo can make a comeback, even if its just a little one.
+Phosphor Bungie is a company not a person. the people that made bungie brought life to the entity that is bungie. it is not the combined sum of the people in it, but the rules ideas and guidlines they crafted them selves. bungie will live on even if every last member of the current team leaves and is replaced. the feel of bungie might change but bungie lives like all corperations
@@Terkzorr note that it was Bungie execs that went into dealing with Activision, fired Marty, scrapped Joe’s story along with most of Destiny 1 due to shitty development, instituted Eververse micro transaction, and have continued to do crappy practices even after Activision left. It seems Bungie was on its way to shiftiness either way, unfortunately for us fans.
Bungie don't be sad about halo 2! Everyone loves it, it feels like a huge complete game I can only imagine what it would be like if they didn't have to make cuts. But it doesn't matter it was awesome game.
Lets see what happened after they left. Marty got fired (the music composer for halo) for "personal" reasons and now he is suing bungie. I wonder why...
He sued for unpaid vacation days. He won. Something happened internally. Marty would be the first they have ever had to let go. Before Destiny, Bungie's employer page would actively advertise, "We have never had to let anyone go in our history." I'm paraphrasing, of course, you heathens.
Rampant Mouse Unlikely to happen 343i and Bungie don't have the license for it. Bungie lost it I think before Halo reach, (it why the pillar of autumn did not have the marathon logo on it like in the first halo game) and 343i never bought the IP
+Lachlan Constantini And a Future war cult shirt… There is no such things as over night success, Destiny is obviously the result of a dream mixed with developer sweat and tears to make it happen. It is huge, if you played the campaign you only scratched the surface.
I remember watching this and almost crying because I remember playing all their games. I thank you bungie can't wait for destiny I need a bungie game on my xbone
It is too bad, they went to start their next big thing, then it all fell apart. It is sad to know that it is all over, but I am grateful I was there in 2004 seeing Halo (my first Halo game played) for sale and seeing the big craze on the news for Halo 2. My final words to the teams of 1998 to 2010 is well done, you made my 2000s to 2010s! Never forget what amazing things you did for us fans back then :)
I get kinda sad and happy watching this. It was a really big part of my childhood all the way through my teens like alot of people. I would get up on friday and be excited for the Bungie weekly update, read everybit of it and think and imagine what it will be like finally getting to have it - Halo was always in my mind, motivating me through all those bad and good days of school. It also steered me towards the games industry and my current line of work. It is absolutely insane what a giant influence a game universe can have over someone. I thank Bungie for what they've done for me and the rest of the world. It's pretty sad that Bungie seem to be a shell of what they used to be, more corporate than ever before and Halo isn't the same anymore ( not surprising as change has to come otherwise things become stale). Someday I hope to feel that level of anticipation and excitement for a game again.
Halo 2 multiplayer opened up an opportunity for me and my oldest friend to communicate over xbox live and not run up the phone bill all the time, he was in Massachusetts, me on Long Island. He passed away in 2015, and while ive continued gaming on, it's not the same without him
Halo was pretty much my life. I started playing halo when i was young (turned 21 this year) and while i played other games gaming revolved around halo for me. It's really hard to get someone from the outside looking in to understand why halo was so big. Heck this video only can do so much of that. I think Bungie did the right thing by leaving halo behind. If you work on the same thing for too long you start to forget things. Like passion and wanting to push through those late night hours. I know i'm in the minority when i say i love 343 and what they are doing with halo. Of course they arn't perfect. But they are a group of halo fans and i honestly think no one better can be entrusted with that then a group of die hard fans. I'm excited to see halo continue and i'm excited for bungie's new project. Both companies made both good and poor choices with their games. But at the end of the day it's all still that thing we all love and care about. And as long as they both get our love and care halo and bungie will continue to shoot for the stars. Thanks bungie and 343
@@adsadam1 Infinite killed Halo for me. Regardless of multiplayer the story was completely uninteresting and there's nothing that makes me want to look forward to the future. Which is what I care about the most with Halo at this point.
@@mongrelshadow14 yep, it's totally dead in the water for the indefinite future. I'm just praying and hoping we one day see a new studio take it, or even Bungie can take it back somehow
@@adsadam1 Nah I'd rather Bungie stay gone. No good product will come from a company that doesn't want to work on the IP anymore. I also didn't like Reach. Most of the people who worked on Halo aren't even at Bungie anymore anyway. At this point I'd rather the franchise just die off and stay dead. Infinite can continue to be supported as with the MCC. But no more games.
Oh Bungie, look how far away you've gotten from your past...your real personality.... Joseph Staten, Marty O'Donnel, Jaime Griesemer...just to name a few names to prove my point....We use to adore you Bungie.....we loved you for you work.... and now you're shitting on every single life-long fan to make more profit?? Why Bungie why? I really do hope you'll eventually find your way back to your roots...
Who’s watching this after Bungie had even more layoffs on July 31st 2024 and it’s rumored that PlayStation’s CEO has taken over Bungie so they lost their entire independence? It’s sad what happened to Bungie. Little did they know they were making a big mistake going to Activision and Sony.
They f*cked themselves over dude. Their CEO is a woke moron, and their board pushed out top talent before Destiny even released. They have nobody but themselves to blame.
We were very lucky to have the people in the Bungie team that cared about making very fun halo experiences despite their (at times) flaws before modern gaming destroyed gaming franchises like halo to selling you meaningless MTX's for you to buy more of. The developers behind the games like this truly are the goose that laid the golden egg. We probably won't see any game just as unique as halo ever again.
I'll never forget booting Halo on Christmas day. Halo will forever be the one that got away for me... A gf that I had all my best firsts with that Ill never grasp again. Pure love for those days. So many incredible LAN parties and friends and memories made.
This video marks the beginning of the end for Bungie. Jason Jones went from a visionary who was widely respected, to a gremlin who hides in the shadows while his company continues to fall from grace.
Bungie! Thank you for everything you’ve created and inspired in this period of time! I’m sorry that times are rough for you guys at the moment, but like a moth to a flame your legacy and wisdom will continue to light the fire in many of us throughout generations, we’ll never give up like how you never gave up to the man. Per Audacia Ad Astra.
Back when the release of a game was a celebration with the community. No other game i know of did that, and no Halo ever will with 343. I have hopes Bungie may come back in the future, they were always for the community, they can't just leave forever.
SGT STEVE Actually the game could have actually lived up to its hype if some of the decisions that Bungie had made didn't happen. If the lead writer of Destiny didn't leave a year before the game came out, I'm sure a lot would have been different.
SGT STEVE Well he's slowly starting to gain control back because they had to try and write a new story within that year and the game is slowly getting a bit better.
Amen fellow spartan. I would do anything just to have those moments back. Its hard to imagine that this small group of people created one of the most influential character in the world. All the best Bungie. (1991-2011) NEVER FORGET...
Standing here 10 years later as an avid Destiny fan, surrounded by a great community and with devs that really have a ton of passion for it. I'd say their predictions in this were exceeded :)
Yeah, we can only wish they can do that. Unfortunately, I don't think modern Bungie will ever replicate or be what it used to be before of what the original Bungie developers did and accomplished in the past.
Don't get me wrong, I love Bungie and 343i, I think Bungie did a pretty good job on Destiny, although it could of been loads better, and the same goes for 343i as well when it comes to Halo 4. I feel as though Bungie and 343i will learn from the mistakes of their first games in their new franchises and make a beyond awesome sequal. Can't wait to play some Halo 5 Guardians and Destiny 2! xP
Directly to Bungie... Halo is the game that I grew up with ever since Halo: Combat Evolved in 2000. I want to sincerely thank you for these games that you have provided to your fans. Bungie will always have a place in my heart. You have touched my life throughout these past 10 years and I know that you will continue to do so for many years to come. Good luck on Destiny! You will be seeing me starside!
For those individuals who complain about Bungie; you would have Xbox Live if it wasn't for them. I started with Marathon, and I have the halos. I think Destiny was awesome (still do). How can you hate Bungie?
Man... the amount of hours I spent in all of the Halo games..(mostly 3 and Reach). Half of my friends list on Xbox is still the random people I met in matchmaking. Most of them haven’t been online in like 5+ years, but it’s still great to go back and remember.
12 years later and all that passion shown in this video is gone, gone to the ether.
Gone? Nah bruh they’ve been separated like all bands and groups
Bungie is long gone. Split in half when 343 formed and those that remained have long since scattered. Hell, it's weird but with Jason Jones being at 343, thats the closest thing we have to what bungie used to be
i’d say it’s back now more than ever. toxic negativity is a problem

@@R0ZEN7 Why and then how? IMO the industry is just too big to go back to how things were
That's capitalism, baby.
In the eyes of a corporation, everyone is a giant sack of cash waiting to be punctured for that green paper to fall out.
Publishers, being the money and authority behind game development, hold too much power and control over developers, who need money to make games and to make a living. Inevitably the publisher will latch onto a good developer, leeching off what money they can from their successes through investments, and over time the developers will be asked more and more until they can't take it anymore and quit, are fired, and either way replaced with people who don't have a trace of history with the original games that made that developer famous.
Look at Rare. They're not the same people who made Banjo-Kazooie. They're a shell that uses the name of a once-great company for the reputation it brings. A puppet organization controlled exclusively by Microsoft.
Bungie is effectively that, but more controlled by Activision. Now they've sort of broken free after the issues with Destiny 2, but they lost key staff along the way, meaning even if they're not a puppet, they're still not the Bungie you knew and loved. They're just a shell using the name of a once-great company for the reputation it brings.
Damn even to this day that’s true.

Ill never forget going over to my neighbors house to play Halo. Just 1v1 in multiplayer was a treat. Then I begged for an xbox for christmas shortly after H2 dropped. Then Halo 3 i was in the pouring rain in September camping outside gamestop with my mom to get a copy of Halo 3. This game will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you day one bungie team for making the best memories of my childhood.
Awsome bro.
Sad to see Marty in this knowing he's not with Bungie anymore :(
***** Hopefully he doesn't.
Joe Staten is gone as well, ya know. Marcus Lehto too! =(
Druffmaul WHAT?
Watch the Halo Infinity trailer and see what I mean I got to feed that Martin o donelln is with 343 industries now
Halo wouldn't be such memorising and epic without that music
I love how they play the perilous, evil-sounding Flood music during the part where they talk about Microsoft.
@@user-73a they left microsoft because 'they were too controlling' lmao. Bungie died as soon as they abandoned the comoetitive scene with reach.

@@user-ft4bl4lh9w reach sucked balls compared to halo 3 or even 2. It killed the competitive scene, added sprint, added bloom and had a campaign which was overdramatic. The only good things about reach was its music and forge.

This video is a monument to all your sins Bungie
Edit: Bungie still peeving people off with Destiny 2. The monument remains
Edit 2 as of 2021:
Bungie still has crap that peeves people off, the story is actual something now though. Either way, the moment perseveres.
Broose Wain dude it's just a reference to halo 2 while also criticizing bungie, i do admit the second comment is weird but, whatevs

I really miss the Halo Community. ): We use to be so huge and friendly, now where much smaller and there are a lot of rude people now. Oh well, I'll always have my memories of the countless hours I put into Halo 3 custom games :D

Everyone hates them about Marty, but what about Joseph?
+Liam Crook Everyone hates them because of what they did to Joseph's original idea for Destiny.
+TheEarlofSodomy Well he's writing the story for the xbox one exclusive "ReCore" lol.
+The Magician I thought that was Activision that did all that to both Marty and Joseph
@Hatwox ReCore was panned on everything EXCEPT it's story, where most said it was the only redeeming quality that never faltered. Staten is a genius at writing.
It wasn't public enough but we've all ready the story about how the "cool guys" at the top of Bungie decided his story was too weird, ostracized his team and decided to make a story that was one million times worse. They brought that on themselves. Perhaps under a Microsoft Management something would have prevented them from doing such an unprofessional treatment.
I’ll forever remember Bungie how they were, not how they are in the current day. I miss this level of passion and creativity and I’m grateful I was able to experience it as it was happening. Thank you to all the amazing people at Bungie who created these unforgettable memories and experiences.
I come here every year to think about the Old Halo games and how Halo Reach is the most emotional and just the best game I have played.
hate to say it but seeing sadies frozen dad in odst, h4, and cheif reaching out to cort in h5, are the only times in halo i felt anything, and nowhere there is freaking reach(i laughed so hard when jorge threw the player off tht spaceship, i was so happy when kat got her head poked with a pinkie..heh serves her right for not taking cover without sheilds, seeing purple cortana was special though, she has never looked as good as she did in h2 ever again), although tht village girl who banged on jorge was hot. ure standards must be low if u found reach emotional, im not expecting telltale good, but reach was just so bland storywise
***** odst had 4vehicle levels, and i hate vehicle levels(halo ce did it best with combing vehicles with boots on the ground shooting). reach multiplayer WAS amazing? um why dont u just keep playing it then? as someone with a 360, it is the only reason i pay for gold(el dorito and h5forge/h2/h1 cover my halo needs on pc fine enough). unlike h3 on 360 its not dead yet. h5 storywise was just a giant tease/waste of time for h6, but thts still something, we found out abt magic rampancy curing water, we got to see wht sanghelios looked like..it looks alot like the cloning facility from starwars ep2, we landed on yet another freaking halo ring/ark/whteve, and the cortana/cheif/warden dynamic was..interesting. and it had the most adorable floating ball lady monitor evr. we didnt learn a single new bit of info from reach, its characters dont say anything but military grunt talk(its like if cod had all the story ripped out from it), therefore to me it had no story.
***** so wht did h4 build upto?
***** h5, the story of how a heart broken 40/50yr old man meets sarah palmer(who thought he'd be taller) and finds love again. yeah im glad 343 went the way they did. and btw mc shows the most emotion in h5(he was pretty emotionless even in h4 bar the end scene) then he ever has in a halo game. h4's im a hologram but i can multiply and came out from the blue floor and tie the diadect up bdsm style, oh and teleport u to safety the very second u set off the payload bomb, even if 'most of the rest of me is down there', was the most ludicres non sensical ending evr. also the fact tht ure hologram can teabag means h4 is the greatest thing since sliced bread
***** the struggle of doing missions without cort, we hv tht its called h3. i miss the heartless badass cheif who was ready and willing for cort to die in inembercald. "where is she cheif?" "she stayed behind..now lets shoot something!" wht missions would u hv lonesome cheif do in h5, help arbiter fight covies? kill the remaining promethan who are screwed now tht their leader fell off a bridge? not much of a story there. i thought the warden taunting cheif abt killing cort was great. "she already knows wht ill do" damnson!...jen taylor in inheritence wawaweewa! if uve seen the h4 making a hero vidoc ull know the blonde lady who did the mocap for cort was a better va for cort than jen
I think Microsoft and Bungie did a lot of good together. Its when all the Activision and Destiny stuff started that it really fell hard. Also as soon as they fired Marty, I knew there was no one there to respect anymore.
I blame the government
11 years after the upload of this video and this is the first time I am watching this video. It is coincidence that I stumble across this video now, as I am getting older and slowly saying good bye to games/franchises I use to play and grew up with. I honestly feel this is the end for me and Halo. I am forever grateful for Halo and what it did to me and the world.

oops! generic
bungie had high hopes for destiny during the making of this documentary, i just want them to tell us what happend with the game why did it not have the bungie charm the bungie effort and love
metalgrev Activision happened.
That or big company greed got to them, releasing an unfinished game and completing it w/ dlc for more money! >:(
Alot of people like to rag on activision's involvment, but truth be told, alot of it was due to engine constraints (their engine wasn't golded by the time they were in production), the rewriting of their core story to enable a longer experience rather than a singleplayer campaign, and the ambition to drive a console-led MMO that hadn't been done since like forever (FSO is the only other game that comes to mind).
@@victormeas7898 the same engine that 343 is killing infinite with. The blam engine was/is terrible.
@@mjisurdad Destiny’s engine was the Tiger engine, had nothing to do with the previous one !
The 20 minute mark has almost put me in tears. Looking back on my most fond memories and how they were forged by this group of dedicated players is phenominal.
I hope this video serves as a wake-up call for Bungie, and that it isn't the etching on the gravestone.
Joe Grubb too many good employees are gone, rip bungie
Lol wake up call. 😅
This was obviously filmed during Jason Jones’ Witcher training. As you can see by his latest interview, his Witcher training is complete.
It's 2023. This video is such great nostalgia. I come back and watch it probably once a year. So glad I experienced this golden age of Halo.

This video is the reason I wanted to get into game design/developement, but the value and comradery that existed in this video has long left the gaming industry due to corporatization and greed. The gaming industry used to be a safe haven now I don't even know what it is anymore the soul and passion is gone.
Capitalism kills fun
Old Bungie was something else, something beautiful and something we'll never see again.
Did anyone else cry at the end? It was the end of era😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Watching this now (2015) makes me feel happy and sad at the same time.
Like a lot of other gamers, I grew up with Halo. I spent whole days at a friend's place playing Halo:CE and Halo 2. I was addicted to Halo 2's Multiplayer. Fast, I fell in love with the games and started to inform myself about the developers behind it, Bungie. I respect Bungie so much for what they did since they exist. They were and are so awesome, I just dreamed to meet the team some day. Halo 3 was the reason I bought my 360. I played the game to death...really enjoyed all the Halo sessions I had with my friends. It was such a wonderful time. I even miss Bungie's Vidocs !!
Today i wonder what went wrong. I don't blame Bungie for Destiny. The idea behind Destiny was solid and good. I think everyone just expected to much from it, the players and the developers. ( I really think that people expect more from products today than 10 years ago, but that's another story.) I feel hurt by the fact that Bungie's team split up after they finished their Halo run. (People left to join 343i so they could stuck with Halo).
Marty left Bungie and sued them...Also other important people left the studio. I ask myself : "Why? Why does this have to happen?" It hit me quite hard to be honest. And it makes me even more sad watching this documentary..I feel sorry for Bungie, that people didn't honored their last game (Halo Reach) how we should have, considering it was their last halo game together. I feel sorry for the team to have gotten intern problems...I feel sorry for their struggling with Destiny. After all they are the fathers of console multiplayer fps-games.
I am left here watching this documentary and remember all the great moments I had with my friends and with this game. I know this is complete Utopia, but I wish they would have continued making Halo Games and adding a new trilogy of the Halo series. With Marty as composer and everyone else on board!
I thank all of you for that nice experience ( Bungie AND the Halo community)
I miss you.

+lifequality Marty didn't left Bungie, he was fired for not shutting his mouth on how Activision has control over the artistical decisions of Bungie. He kept moaning until they fired him. The other thing is, that Activision or bungie (but more likely Activision) has cut the game AND the story into pieces to sell them to the gamers separately... It's been proven that all DLC we got so far, should've been day one content... (Source Lawsuit Marty vs Bungie). They did that intentionally.... The hate since launch day is well deserved!
I'm playing Halo: Infinite while watching this vid. I think its finally safe to say that 343 has captured at least a fraction of the magic that was 2000s Bungie. I grew up on your games; from playing CE after school when i was in Kindergarten with High Schoolers to playing Marathon and Myth on my dusty old Gateway 2000, you were a big part of my childhood, continuing on into my middle to high school years with 2, 3, and Reach. I play Destiny still on occasion. It's gotten a lot better. I'm still anxious to see what you do as the series progresses. I believe in what this company stands for. I hope you all do too.
*Long comment ahead*
When I was 7, I played my very first console based FPS and I loved it...
The game was Halo Combat Evolved and thanks to my dad not being the best one in the world to hide what he's playing (he didn't even change the channel) I got the time to check out the game that he had played so much.
I started up on the 2nd level and saw a car in a huge tunnel. Apparantly my dad couldn't drive for shit so my very first thing to do was to take the Warthog and I jumped the ramp (you know what part I'm talking about).
Just as I got to the big open area with a bunch of Covenants starting to shoot at me, my dad came in and took the controller away from me.
A few weeks later he let me try it and I got to shoot some aliens. I wasn't good, but I liked it (he knew that I was a nice kid with no aggression problem at all).
A couple of years later my friend got a 360 with Halo 3 included and I hadn't played H2 yet (I hadn't even made it through 343 quilty spark mission, fuck that shit) so I succeeded to talk my dad into borrowing Halo 2 from his job (a youth recreation center) and after a few weeks he even bought it from the job.
Flash forward to the end of 2008 I found a box with Master Chief's helmet labeled on the side in his wardrobe (I had to change pillow and I knew where they where) I didn't tell him that I saw it, but I did tell a friend on the Tennis. This was just a week before Christmas and I was overly happy the whole week, my dad didn't know why.
At the start of 2009 after I finally completed the campaign, I saw some multiplayer gameplay online (I think it was Anoj's top 10 series that got me, can have been RvB too) and I managed to talk my dad into getting a router to play online.
I swore to myself that even though Bungie would leave, I would still be active on Xbox Live.
Flashforward to 2013 when Bungie left (wich I never thought would happen) and 343 took over to make the next Halo, I had my thoughts that this might be it. They may actually kill Halo for ever and therefor give me no reason to stay on Xbox (wich I in late 2011 learned was just behind the technology of PC) and build a powerful gaming rig instead.
Halo 4 got released, I waited a few days to buy it since I had seen gameplay of it being pretty odd for an Halo game.
I finally got my copy and started to play the campaign instantly... I hated it!
They tried to copy other game, especially COD, rather than keeping to the roots. I thought that the graphics were unfitting and the story was just not Halo.
What really killed me was that rather than being a complete badass, Master Chief almost cried almost all the time! My number one hero almost CRIED! It was like he hit puberty or something...
I decided to give Multiplayer a chance since they fucked up the Campaign. That was even worse! It was literally a crossover between COD and Halo with more aiming towards COD.
Multiplayer and the Campaign was dead and I knew what the future of Halo was. I tried to keep up with my promise, but I just couldn't.
Today I got a high end gaming rig that I built for 850€ and I'm maxing out every one of my 57 games (most triple A games that I bought for less than 10€ each, some even 5€, and some in a six game bundle for 1$) and I'm currently saving for an Oculus Rift.
I'm really hoping that Destiny won't be a console exclusive and that they will think about the community as much, or even more than they did back in Halo 3 and Halo Reach.
Thanks to 343 I'm now a student in an IT school and I want to become a qualified game designer and make my own game exactly as I want it to be.
*TL;DR:* Halo was the only string that held me attached to my Xbox Live account and 343 cut it off
Pvt. Duckling whelp I'm assuming you never got a chance to play Destiny huh? They let us down, it's a good thing you weren't there on launch
Ugh I still wish we could have gotten Joseph's original Destiny story before the first delay and they fired all the original Halo designers and writers..It may be the old in me but I truly believe that game would have been amazing. There's so many of the old Halo fans that have abandoned this company because of all the misleading and lies over this game and what it turned into..
We lost so much.
It's hard to believe such an amazing studio as Bungie would end in a Dark era that they currently are in right now. Wish they could just return to their former glory and just be amazing as they once were. Making fun and Memorable games was once they were known for....*Sighs*

-2019
This shit is downright painful to watch now, especially the ending. In the same amount of time it took them to deliver one of the most beloved franchises in history, the studio was torn apart and became the very thing they despised. A corporate-minded shell with a Stockholm syndrome fanbase.
I miss these days.
When human imagination, passion and human spirit was REAL !
And i love that Jason said "MORE COLOR!" about the covenant. Because that was what became do beautiful and memorable about them to this day.
They got rid of one of the main things that made Halo Halo. Marty.. those scores are epic and drove the emotions that connected you to the game.
Wish 343 would bring him back.
It’s really sad and depressing to see what has happen. I really do miss the old halos they felt like bungie cared and loved the games, they put pure love into them.
I’m watching in 2018 and if bungie reads this... please make gaming great again. I love your love for halo and the passion for spilt screen and story telling.
Interesting how the split with Bungie and Microsoft/Halo pretty much had the worst case scenario for both sides. Bungie was slowly turned into something it wasn't by Activision, and Halo was arguably turned into something it wasn't and drove many fans away.
Only recently have 343 started to get some of that Halo magic back from what I've seen in the Infinite trailers (aside from the horrid graphics) and Bungie has barely gotten away from Activision and once again saying they're looking for independence, while at the same time accepting money from NetEase.
im a new halo fan that started playing halo with mcc in October 2019 but I love your games more and wish I was born in the early 90s so I could have been alive when the halo games where cool I was born in 2009
Feel free to judge me, but ODST was my favorite Halo game. I don't really know about the multiplayer side of any Halo game because I don't have Xbox Live. This means that whenever I gamed (before I got a gaming laptop) I would play a Halo campaign. I haven't played Halo:CE or Halo 2 because they were a little bit before my time. I can tell you that I have played every campaign from Halo 3 and on at least 3 or 4 times (at least 20-25 times for Halo 3 :P). I don't know what it is about ODST. I mean I just love the whole atmosphere. I liked experiencing the Halo Universe through an ODST's perspective. I loved how you had to uncover mysteries and try to stealthily avoid groups of brutes that were seeking to destroy anything that moved. If you were seen, you would have to use cover much more than in other Halo campaigns. It's not like everyone can get kick-ass armor! I also loved how there were many perspectives throughout the game and all of the missions were VERY fun. I could go on and on (as if I haven't already) about how much I love this game, but I think this should suffice! :D
Thank You For EVERYTHING Bungie!
I'd recommend going back and playing Halo CE and 2. They were pretty good especially the first one. It was my first console game to play so I grew up playing the series. ODST was my second favorite, wish they all released on PC when they release the collection for next gen.
Jesus I fell asleep on this long ass video and had a dream I was playing halo on my ps4.. you need to bring the halo series over to sony I bet you will make tons of loot...
Sosa Lit They can't they don't own halo anymore. look forward to destiny though ^^
ODST was the best. Staten is an artist when it comes to writing.
I was born in 03 and i've never had those OG experiences like yall did, I was too young and didn't have an xbox in my early age. But I remember in 2010, I was at least 7 or 8 and I visited my cousin's house and he got a game called Halo Reach and we played forge and Multiplayer for hours and then switching to Halo 3, It was so fun. But the real kicker for me was the last week of 6th grade in math class. Now in math everyone had a PC and my friend found a Halo Combat Evolved or Custom Edition file on the web and he downloaded it and we all followed through with it. About 80% of the class is playing Halo CE playing slayer and capture the flag. Me and almost my whole class just dukin it out on Halo at school. It was one of my life's best highlights and what got me into Halo and our math teacher was so down for it because he was also a hardcore Halo 2 multiplayer only kind of guy in how he described it. I played the old games first and worked my way up to the new ones. I love Halo im still hopeful that one day Halo can make a comeback, even if its just a little one.
This might as well be Bungie's epitaph.
+Phosphor i cri

Whoevers watching in 2019, bungie had left activision
@@Terkzorr note that it was Bungie execs that went into dealing with Activision, fired Marty, scrapped Joe’s story along with most of Destiny 1 due to shitty development, instituted Eververse micro transaction, and have continued to do crappy practices even after Activision left.
It seems Bungie was on its way to shiftiness either way, unfortunately for us fans.
Then they signed with PlayStation and fired Salvatori.
Bungie don't be sad about halo 2! Everyone loves it, it feels like a huge complete game I can only imagine what it would be like if they didn't have to make cuts. But it doesn't matter it was awesome game.
Rhys Nichols I don't love it.
51:04 it brings me to tears hearing the lies right to my face. its so disheartening.
52:03 i am trying so, so hard... to have faith.
Lets see what happened after they left.
Marty got fired (the music composer for halo) for "personal" reasons
and now he is suing bungie.
I wonder why...
He sued for unpaid vacation days. He won.
Something happened internally. Marty would be the first they have ever had to let go.
Before Destiny, Bungie's employer page would actively advertise, "We have never had to let anyone go in our history." I'm paraphrasing, of course, you heathens.
that1dude0092 And we still don't have Marathon 4...

Unlikely to happen
343i and Bungie don't have the license for it.
Bungie lost it I think before Halo reach, (it why the pillar of autumn did not have the marathon logo on it like in the first halo game)
and 343i never bought the IP
that1dude0092 Thanks Obama.

There is no such things as over night success, Destiny is obviously the result of a dream mixed with developer sweat and tears to make it happen.
It is huge, if you played the campaign you only scratched the surface.
Wait...Halo 5?
I remember watching this and almost crying because I remember playing all their games. I thank you bungie can't wait for destiny I need a bungie game on my xbone
Now I am crying as I watch it again
Halo molded my childhood into the adult years with vivid epic stories and grim amazing firefights. Thanks for the memories guys.
Rest in piece Bungie.

You know, I never realized how great the lighting on Halo 3 was until now, the second time I'm watching this video.
Well....... That backfired spectacularly.......
I get kinda sad and happy watching this. It was a really big part of my childhood all the way through my teens like alot of people. I would get up on friday and be excited for the Bungie weekly update, read everybit of it and think and imagine what it will be like finally getting to have it - Halo was always in my mind, motivating me through all those bad and good days of school. It also steered me towards the games industry and my current line of work. It is absolutely insane what a giant influence a game universe can have over someone. I thank Bungie for what they've done for me and the rest of the world. It's pretty sad that Bungie seem to be a shell of what they used to be, more corporate than ever before and Halo isn't the same anymore ( not surprising as change has to come otherwise things become stale). Someday I hope to feel that level of anticipation and excitement for a game again.
I love how at 30:18 Dan is wearing a Destiny shirt but barely anyone knew about the game yet
Halo 2 multiplayer opened up an opportunity for me and my oldest friend to communicate over xbox live and not run up the phone bill all the time, he was in Massachusetts, me on Long Island. He passed away in 2015, and while ive continued gaming on, it's not the same without him
no worries bungie. We'll always be behind you -your fans
Halo was pretty much my life. I started playing halo when i was young (turned 21 this year) and while i played other games gaming revolved around halo for me. It's really hard to get someone from the outside looking in to understand why halo was so big. Heck this video only can do so much of that. I think Bungie did the right thing by leaving halo behind. If you work on the same thing for too long you start to forget things. Like passion and wanting to push through those late night hours.
I know i'm in the minority when i say i love 343 and what they are doing with halo. Of course they arn't perfect. But they are a group of halo fans and i honestly think no one better can be entrusted with that then a group of die hard fans. I'm excited to see halo continue and i'm excited for bungie's new project. Both companies made both good and poor choices with their games. But at the end of the day it's all still that thing we all love and care about. And as long as they both get our love and care halo and bungie will continue to shoot for the stars.
Thanks bungie and 343
Hey man, what's your opinion on 343i in 2022?
@@adsadam1 Infinite killed Halo for me. Regardless of multiplayer the story was completely uninteresting and there's nothing that makes me want to look forward to the future. Which is what I care about the most with Halo at this point.
@@mongrelshadow14 yep, it's totally dead in the water for the indefinite future. I'm just praying and hoping we one day see a new studio take it, or even Bungie can take it back somehow
@@adsadam1 Nah I'd rather Bungie stay gone. No good product will come from a company that doesn't want to work on the IP anymore.
I also didn't like Reach. Most of the people who worked on Halo aren't even at Bungie anymore anyway. At this point I'd rather the franchise just die off and stay dead. Infinite can continue to be supported as with the MCC. But no more games.
Oh Bungie, look how far away you've gotten from your past...your real personality.... Joseph Staten, Marty O'Donnel, Jaime Griesemer...just to name a few names to prove my point....We use to adore you Bungie.....we loved you for you work.... and now you're shitting on every single life-long fan to make more profit?? Why Bungie why? I really do hope you'll eventually find your way back to your roots...
i watch this at least once a year. i love you guys so much and i am very thankful for you guys. thank so much.
If only Activision didn't ruin Destiny...
+Randompancakes12345 Bungie ruined Destiny not Activision.
+T MYTHoLogic T no it was Activision
Luke XD Bit of both but mainly Bungie.
Randompancakes12345 this bungie doesnt exist. destiny bungie is the same company not the same devs
more activision tho. bungie made the game while activision was the reason behind the dlc and lies for the game
They’re not the same anymore.
Yeah, I miss this team. It's just a name now. Corporate destroyed this team. Especially Activision...
Who’s watching this after Bungie had even more layoffs on July 31st 2024 and it’s rumored that PlayStation’s CEO has taken over Bungie so they lost their entire independence?
It’s sad what happened to Bungie. Little did they know they were making a big mistake going to Activision and Sony.
They f*cked themselves over dude. Their CEO is a woke moron, and their board pushed out top talent before Destiny even released. They have nobody but themselves to blame.
We were very lucky to have the people in the Bungie team that cared about making very fun halo experiences despite their (at times) flaws before modern gaming destroyed gaming franchises like halo to selling you meaningless MTX's for you to buy more of. The developers behind the games like this truly are the goose that laid the golden egg. We probably won't see any game just as unique as halo ever again.
I like how thay referenced destiny at the end
Loved the Alpha and waiting for Beta access. Destiny's going to be EPIC! =}
all these years where I thought it was just some random symbol ...
There's a guy wearing a new monarchy shirt near the end as well
@@SlylentGamer91 how do you feel about Destiny now?
@@SlylentGamer91 Well, Destiny was the game we never got.
File this one under "videos that aged like milk".
this made me very sad
I'll never forget booting Halo on Christmas day. Halo will forever be the one that got away for me... A gf that I had all my best firsts with that Ill never grasp again. Pure love for those days. So many incredible LAN parties and friends and memories made.
This video marks the beginning of the end for Bungie. Jason Jones went from a visionary who was widely respected, to a gremlin who hides in the shadows while his company continues to fall from grace.
RIP bungie
Bungie gone from halo. Saaaaaaad face ;(
Bungie! Thank you for everything you’ve created and inspired in this period of time! I’m sorry that times are rough for you guys at the moment, but like a moth to a flame your legacy and wisdom will continue to light the fire in many of us throughout generations, we’ll never give up like how you never gave up to the man. Per Audacia Ad Astra.
Bungie broke my heart when they gave up on Halo and gave it to 343 and Microsoft
Back when the release of a game was a celebration with the community. No other game i know of did that, and no Halo ever will with 343. I have hopes Bungie may come back in the future, they were always for the community, they can't just leave forever.
Seeing Marty in this and his optimism for the future of Bungie really upsets me. Bungie fucked up big time...
Brings back good old memories:( wish I could go back in time. Halo made a big impact in my life......
This was the beginning of the end
Watching this in 2014 with all the disappointment from Destiny makes me wonder what they were thinking..
same with 2015
You expected to much. And there was to much Hype which people over thought the MMO levels in the game
SGT STEVE
Actually the game could have actually lived up to its hype if some of the decisions that Bungie had made didn't happen. If the lead writer of Destiny didn't leave a year before the game came out, I'm sure a lot would have been different.
DarkAbusis
Clearly Jason Jones has no control over the company
SGT STEVE
Well he's slowly starting to gain control back because they had to try and write a new story within that year and the game is slowly getting a bit better.
RIP Bungie
1991-2023
Amen fellow spartan. I would do anything just to have those moments back. Its hard to imagine that this small group of people created one of the most influential character in the world. All the best Bungie. (1991-2011) NEVER FORGET...
Rest In Peace
BUNGI PLEASE COME BACK TO HALO 343 RUIEND THIS GAME FOR ME I MISS YOU GUYS
Standing here 10 years later as an avid Destiny fan, surrounded by a great community and with devs that really have a ton of passion for it. I'd say their predictions in this were exceeded :)
Destiny is trash compared to halo. No one can even name a single character from destiny, everyone knows master chief
Manly tears were shed.
Bungie needs to revisit these vidocs and go back to their roots..
Yeah, we can only wish they can do that. Unfortunately, I don't think modern Bungie will ever replicate or be what it used to be before of what the original Bungie developers did and accomplished in the past.
@@gran_turismo_fan totally agree, this Bungie is cheeks.
Don't get me wrong, I love Bungie and 343i, I think Bungie did a pretty good job on Destiny, although it could of been loads better, and the same goes for 343i as well when it comes to Halo 4. I feel as though Bungie and 343i will learn from the mistakes of their first games in their new franchises and make a beyond awesome sequal. Can't wait to play some Halo 5 Guardians and Destiny 2! xP
This aged well.
Still Now
Directly to Bungie... Halo is the game that I grew up with ever since Halo: Combat Evolved in 2000. I want to sincerely thank you for these games that you have provided to your fans. Bungie will always have a place in my heart. You have touched my life throughout these past 10 years and I know that you will continue to do so for many years to come. Good luck on Destiny! You will be seeing me starside!
For those individuals who complain about Bungie; you would have Xbox Live if it wasn't for them. I started with Marathon, and I have the halos. I think Destiny was awesome (still do). How can you hate Bungie?
Cause CoD, Halo, CoD, Halo, CoD, Halo, CoD...
HaloModder555 More like Halo, CoD, CoD, Halo, CoD, CoD, Halo
Halo and destiny are awesome
+MortisedSkink 90 you mean halo,
21:01 I bet they still say that
25:06 and at this point I cried
Hmm...well it was hearthbreaking to see Martin on this video :C
Lance Hetfield even worse Marty did composed 2016 the witnesses
Man... the amount of hours I spent in all of the Halo games..(mostly 3 and Reach). Half of my friends list on Xbox is still the random people I met in matchmaking. Most of them haven’t been online in like 5+ years, but it’s still great to go back and remember.
