Happy Bungie Day

Happy Bungie Day

It's the 7th day of the 7th month which means it's time for everyone here at Bungie to rejoice and give thanks to you, our awesome fan community. As a small token of our gratitude and to reward your support in our quest for world domination, we've teamed up with our friends at Rooster Teeth to offer the gift of video. Not just any video mind you, no, this is the definitive Bungie Day machinima video from the people who created Bungie Day machinima videos.

For those that dont know its the date on which the Halo developer traditionally drops a Master Chief surprise on its suspecting fanbase. The video seems to confirm a Halo Reach version of Blood Gulch plus it showed off some new surprises with the armour abilities, techniques, stealth kills, rocket packs while carrying flags, vehicles and the actual level itself has been enlarged.

Cool. Nice find there mate. I unsubscribed to RoosterTeeth recently (not really a big fan of their work anymore) but it's cool that Blood Gulch will make its way into Halo Reach. That's one of the few maps I've actually liked.

Not just remade either, its been made much bigger and included lots of new bonuses which looked quite nice.

Yeah, I loved Blood Gulch, and it'll be cool to see the size change and what they've added.

Re: Happy Bungie Day

Eh, you know, I loved the story-line of Halo: Combat Evolved.
I loved the story-line and online especially for Halo 2.
But after those two I lost respect for the Halo trilogy, I thought it was ridiculous to make Halo 3, Halo Wars and Halo 3: ODST and now Halo: Reach. I dislike the online, it's full of people who can't shut up, can't stop bragging about their ranks, or act like they're the king of MLG Halo. The Halo 2 online was much more open to community where you could actually talk and have fun, just like Call of Duty 2. But it's nice to see they're bringing Blood Gulch back, that map was epic, especially after The Blood Gulch series. xD

Nice Find Dark Drakan.

+ rep.

Re: Happy Bungie Day

Loved it! That armor ability is sick with the cloning. That'd be good for a sniper that doesn't want to give away his real position.

I don't celebrate Bungie day. I'm Jewish.

Re: Happy Bungie Day

Ahh... Bungie Armour was so fun to use. When I jump I would see some flames on my screen, which was odd.

Anyway, with the cloning hologram thing, it probably works in a way where you can't move while you control the hologram which actually isn't all that great, but might be good for scouting (depending on how long it lasts for).

Could scout or in team games use it as a distraction for a team mate to spot where sniper fire is coming from without endangering your life.

Re: Happy Bungie Day

Yay! The Gulch is my fondest Halo Memory, I am glad it might be back, and Rooster Teeth are the best, I love their shorts and comics too.
