Bungie signs 10-year Activision deal

[Kxizm]

So this means bungie will be making the next COD?

maybe it will include aliens...

!! Call of Duty: Future Warfare

[nimbuscloud]

cant wait to see what they churn out..

[Firefox]

I look forward to $20 dlc for their next game to maximize milking. And on top of that introduce microtransactions into gaming online. pity

[Staticneuron]

Wow.... I really hope that bungie has themselves covered through this deal. Activision is starting to sound really shady.

[neoxthexone]

I am a little curious as where exactly has Bungie been for the past few months?

[Cuguy]

Moving this to the multi section as this isn't really PS3 news, or PS3 game related, but rather industry news.

[Stig]

Hahahahhaahhahahahah


That is all.

This. Awesomely this.

[Hidden Star]

Hehe the industry really has turned to **** hasnt it?

[clean515]

I am a little curious as where exactly has Bungie been for the past few months?

In their old office working on their new projects?

[jfkgoblue]

so I guess Bungie is going Multi-plat then...

[Xelis]

Halo was an average game.

Bungie plus Activision. Oh ****ing dear.

I would have thought Bungie would have earnt enough from Halo to just go solo.

so I guess Bungie is going Multi-plat then...

That's an understatement, all their games will be on everything, PS3, 360, Wii, DS, PSP, iPhone, etch-a sketch, chalkboards.....

[Two4DaMoney]

Just look at them, so happy

He just took it over the sink if you ask me. Goodness, what the hell are these guys thinking?

Hold on guys...

Does this mean that HipHopGamer was right about Bungie's next big game(obviously not Reach) going to the ps3 also? Is that crow on those plates?

[F34R]

If HHG was right, then so were the millions of others that speculated the same thing.

Others such as...?

I only recall Bungie:MS as Insomniac:Sony

That would just be a pretty decent guess. It's really not that hard to predict that kind of stuff. Here's another one for you : Insomniacs next IP is going to 360 too.

Really who would they go to and make platform exclusive games? Other than MS, Sony or Nintendo no publishers are really interested in that

Or even better...

Pachter predicts there will be no more 3rd party exclusives LMAO

[Mael Duin]

Don't know if cry or laugh.
After the whole Infinity Ward fiasco, this is just comical.

Well there's a pretty big diffrence here because they owned IW, they have not bought bungie they just got exclusive deal to publish their games.

True, this isn't exactly the same.
Jumped the gun there.

[neoxthexone]

In their old office working on their new projects?

So they were chained to their computer chairs forced to work on the game 24/7 in the office without any internet?

They must of knew about Activision and Infinity Wards clash. Even Dice and Insomniac commented on the scenario.

Nooottt really. People shot down Bungie working on the ps3 very fast.

Here's what you got when people talked about Bungie + PS3, "MS has the rights to pass up on the game or make it exclusive. MS and Bungie relationship is great so therefore MS will publish their games"

That's all I remember.

[Cuguy]

Exactly Two... if MS sees the title as being a big seller, they have the rights to secure it as exclusive from Bungie... they have 1st dibs on all titles that Bungie produces.

Then why exactly would they not let MS publish it? It just seems weird because I doubt MS would pass up on anything that they produced.

[k.cuthbertson]

Two things...

1. So much for bungie saying they're gonna take a break from Halo for a while after reach..

2. Woot..Halo's coming to PS3 haha
