- radda, on 10/10/2007, -0/+56When the description says "Wired News", I expect to be taken to Wired's site, not some ***** blog.
Seriously. Link the source, not the messenger. - GhostRican, on 10/10/2007, -3/+37That headline is misleading. He never actually says "no PS3 or Wii" in the interview, he only says that they're comfortable with the 360.
- ripstuntz, on 10/10/2007, -3/+29And this surprises people how??
- johnsweber, on 10/10/2007, -1/+27a developer makes millions on console X, you'd think it'd be a smart decision to continue making millions on console X. if you're good at making FPS, make them on the best FPS console.
- SuperCUBE, on 10/15/2007, -3/+20Halo will never be on the Wii, so you don't have to worry. Holy *****, why would that happen?
- samBAKER, on 10/10/2007, -7/+24Thank god I can keep living seeing as Halo isn't going on the PS3.
- Coffeedemon, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15Hows the submitter supposed to make money by actually linking to the source instead of the same news regurgitation site he always submits?
- jlgosse, on 10/10/2007, -3/+18Where did they say that they're only going to develop for 360? Clearly they state that they will stick with the 360 and not abandon it; this does not mean they will not develop for Wii and PS3.
- brianbennett, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15Great idea! ...now how about MGS4 on Xbox 360?
- Phyltre, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13Err...Bungie didn't talk about a Halo game for the DS. That was an unsolicited pitch from a third party. Also, feel free to hate Halo but at the end of the day it will be loved by millions of players and played online billions of times.
- Heinekenator, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12I don't see how a non-class-based individual or multi-team FPS is a "cheap rip-off" of a class-based two-team-only FPS. Both good games, but not a rip-off.
/boggle - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+13So a game where you draw crayon outline around the Brute to kill it?
- Lutfesk, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11wow, had no idea Microsoft was so supportive. great funding, great results. keep them coming!
- badken, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10So let me get this straight... this is a blog reporting on a Wired News interview which is available online. Buh?
- Exhaust, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11Wii has 1 FPS that is decent. Metroid. Everything else is a worthless. On top of that the online service is an abysmal failure.
Complaining about the controller being inferior to the mouse and keyboard are one thing but the Wii fanboys fail to see the big picture. Lack of buttons... moving the cursor to the edge of the screen to turn and sensitivity issues far outweigh improved "pointing capability". With my sensitivity turned up high in Halo 3 I'm very close to mouse and keyboard functionality. Not quite there but close. I would even argue that in straight up circle staffing and retaining aim the console controller in skilled hand may win the fight. - joltcola, on 10/10/2007, -5/+13i was looking forward to master chief mini-games for the wii
- RyanBlueThunder, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Microsoft owns the Halo / Master Chief IP. They let go of Bungie.
- strictnein, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8Part of that "poor foresight" is a lucrative and long term publishing deal with MS.
- strictnein, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7You get the Spartan laser (the big gun), I'll take the carbine, assault rifle, dual pistols, brute shot, needler, dual spikers, or battle rifle and I'll beat you every time.
- strictnein, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9So, it was a milk the series" attack from a Wii fanboy? Is that irony?
- mypenis, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Don't count on it. They only said "Never say never". All that means is, "We don't have any immediate plans".
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9So you think that Metal Gear Solid 4 only being on PS3 would be poor foresight as well? The reality is that Bungie pretty much made Xbox Live a worthwhile service. Their entire formula is based on a consistent, streamlined online experience for console gamers...which the PS3 and Wii do not have (at least not yet).
- EnderMB, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6To be honest I believe Bungie is to Nintendo/Sony as Rare is to Nintendo. Rare worked miracles on the N64, but served little for Microsoft. I seriously doubt Bungie could replicate the same success on the Wii or PS3. So far to the majority their only notable game is Halo, a game which, let's be honest isn't the best game in the world. Rare had far more going for them and still couldn't create a killer game for the Xbox 360. If I were Bungie I'd stick to what I could do, and that's Xbox FPS games.
That being said, I'd like to see them work on the DS, preferably something that isn't Halo though. I want to see more original content from them now that they are free from their contract with Microsoft. - MalDON, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7People complain about a regular controller is too much for a fps. A little wiimote? Jeesh.
- colincornaby, on 10/10/2007, -4/+9They have said however they are open to developing for the Mac. http://www.macworld.com/news/2007/10/05/bungieinte ...
- AndyVenus, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Microsoft still owns the rights to Halo. That's one thing that you can guarantee will never be on the PS3.
- kilodelta, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5a well treated dog will still stay close to their owner even when the leash is off.
note: i'm not calling Bungie a dog or anything here. its just a analogy. - Phyltre, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Pikmin is as close as the Wii is going to get to RTS games, I'm afraid.
- theaceoffire, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Which means that they will only share the 4 star games and not the 5 star ones.
Which is FAR better than none. - mjpatey, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7Well, there goes my dream of playing Halo 3 on Ubuntu... :-)
- Blah_Blah_Blah, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6its not our faults that you bought a PS3.
an honest question: why would you do that to yourself? - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I love my wii as well. But in my package deal, I got Mario party 8 in addition to wii sports and...
Well I'll be positive, and say I love the boxing game. Mario Party 8 on the other hand... - battletrax, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5An Honest question: Why would i want halo on another system? I already have a 360 and would be very pleased if i didn't have to shell out an extra $450-500 for a ps3.
- Ratteler, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Sorry Bungie, I only pay my hard earned cash for software written for Linux or Mac. But you can shout me when you wake up and stop taking M$ soft money.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5A couple of months after the iPhone spam ends... which is to say... not in the foreseeable future.
- Fuze07, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Amen.
- SineCurve, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Yeah, seriously, why not? You would be able to sell the game to more people.
- wageslaven, on 10/10/2007, -12/+16"potential"? To use your large muslce control as opposed to your fine muscles? Outside of using your shoulder and elbow instead of your thumb and forefinger, what is this "potential"?
Do control schemes _alone_ make a game now? - Crosshare, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5@B1663r
I own and love my Wii, but that was damn funny. - petergerickson, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Buried for linking to this ***** blog instead of the actual Wired article. Give credit!
- Christbait, on 10/10/2007, -3/+6Nope, it's just 360, several sources are reporting the same, Bungie say developing for other consoles is very, very, very unlikely.
- s14rider, on 10/10/2007, -7/+10What's the point of playing on wii if you dont play game with the motion controls? Your statement is even more ridiculous.
- themastersb, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3So Bungie and Microsoft broke up, but they'll continue to be friends and keep talking with each other for a while and then slowly they'll talk to each other a little less and then eventually they'll look away when they see each other walking down the sidewalk. *Goes in a corner and cries*
- logicalnoise, on 10/10/2007, -12/+15what potential? The wii-mote is good for pointing. That's it everything else is just horribly innaccurate and requires way too much effort for simple gameplay mechanics.
- mbthompson, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3I dunno, I think Battalion Wars might be RTS.
- xaphann, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3direct link:

- Baku, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5I like Halo 3 a lot... but holy ***** when will the Halo 3 Digg spam end?
- iceperson, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4"Sorry, Wii, PS3"
Hmm, sounds like he did. Owners of other consoles don't care if games they like are exclusives like 360 fanboys. - Oogler, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4I agree with you logicalnoise, I haven't purchased a Wii specifcally *because of* the controller. Every experience I've had withe Wii remotey thing has been frustrating; not gratifying, for the precise reasons you gave.
