According to Bungie.net, Bungie, the creators of the Science Fiction hit Halo, have begun final transition to 343 Industries Via Halo Waypoint. Here is the offical statement from Bungie.net.
Last summer, Bungie and 343 Industries began a transition process for Halo data. On March 31st, 2012 that transition process will be complete, all live Halo data will be managed by 343 Industries, and Bungie will no longer be able to update game stats and player service records, to host new user generated content, or to operate the Bungie Pro service. All currently supported, Bungie-developed Halo titles will be impacted by this change.
Any replacement functionality, and all future Halo support, will be provided by Microsoft and 343 Industries via Halo Waypoint at http://halo.xbox.com.
Bungie will preserve all existing historical Halo data on Bungie.net for as long as the Internet and Bungie’s data storage systems remain functional.
Thanks for making the Halo-era version of Bungie.net more successful than we could have possibly imagined. You complete us.
See you starside.
Weather this is the end of Bungie, is yet to be seen. Check back for more.
cant wait to see what their new game is!
343 industries know what there doing, especially being made up of ex bungie employees its in good hands.
i just hope bungies new game is not a MMO, id be nice to see them try something a little different then a SCIFI shooter.
been there done that, the whole reason they left M$ was because they locked them to halo.
so there going to leave, and jump back in?
what the?
Me too, man. I”m really looking forward to what these guys will offer. I know they’re masters of their craft. Bungie.
exactly why i want them to try something different.
theve already woven there magic on FPS SCIFI games, so id be cool to see them wave it somewhere else.
oh how cool would it be if they did a star wars game!
