nuovo ip in arrivo?

un nuovo halo?

un gioco per l'iphone?  

[Reiz]

Halo per iPhone 

[Turrican3]

Un nuovo Halo (per Iphone poi...) mi pare a dir poco improbabile, l'IP dovrebbe essere rimasta saldamente in mano a Microsoft e dubito possano volerla slegare dal brand Xbox.

[Blasor]

Oh, giusto, non può essere Halo. Finalmente posso sperare in qualcosa di nuovo e auspicabilmente meglio.

[Turrican3]

Beh a giudicare dalle dichiarazioni sembrano voler mettere in piedi qualcosa di paragonabile - come minimo - ad Halo, come ambizioni intendo.

E con un colosso come Activision alle spalle (che ritengo abbia poco da invidiare a Microsoft in questo segmento di mercato, quello dei videogiochi) penso sia del tutto ragionevole puntare così in alto. Vedremo.

  :ohno:

[Turrican3]

Non sono sicuro al 100% di averla capita... :doubt: :mmmm:

Comunque effettivamente esiste sia il .org che il .com, chissà magari avrà comunque in qualche modo a che fare col loro progetto in lavorazione, boh...

7 Reasons to Celebrate

This is the year that we say goodbye to Halo, but though the thought of our absence from this universe may bring a salty tear to your twinkling eye there is much to celebrate. So much in fact that we're tearing ourselves away from the blazing fires of our development forge to put the last two decades of Bungie's existence into proper perspective. It is, after all, the 20th anniversary of our studio and nearly the 10th anniversary of the game series that thrust us straight into the public's yearning maw.

Beginning on June 23rd, and running through the close of Bungie Day on July 7th, we'll be celebrating the last twenty years the only way we know how - by giving you, the best -blam!- community on the planet, all the parting gifts we can muster.

Here are 7 reasons you should come out and celebrate with us this year:

   1. Because Blue Flames aren't just for Bungie Employees or fans with iPhones. We'll be turning on Blue Flames and the Bungie Nameplate for every last one of our loyal fans. (Kids, do try this at home.)
   2. Because we just built a brand-new and totally free community iPhone app to keep you connected...and entertained!
   3. Because we're going to tell you, in explicit detail, exactly what Bungie Aerospace is all about.
   4. Because a collection featuring some of our rarest and most treasured personal Halo artwork will be up for auction, with all profits going to charity through a partnership between Child's Play and the Bungie Foundation.
   5. Because the Bungie Store is going to be packed with Swag Sacks containing random, but totally kick ass swag, limited run commemorative t-shirts, and amazing commissioned posters from a handful of incredible artists, with all profits also going straight to charity.
   6. Because on Bungie Day we'll be throwing down in a 24-hour Bungie vs. the World No Holds Barred Halo: Reach Marathon where we'll be making the promise of Steaktacular a certified beefy reality. You steak us. We'll steak you. Seriously, we're going to mail any team who beats us by 20 kills or more on Bungie Day a Grade-A cut of steak (gift cards for international players) while supplies last.
   7. Because you've been just as much a part of this incredible twenty years as we have, and we simply couldn't bear it if you didn't show up and help us celebrate our anniversary and help send our Halo baby out with one hell of a bang.


The festivities begin on June 23rd and conclude as the final hours of this year's Bungie Day, July 7th, come to a close. If you don't show up, we just won't know what to do with ourselves, and we definitely won't know what to do with this ViDoc we've been slaving over for the last two decades.

See you soon. BYOB. ONYC.

Love,

Bungie.

Entro il 7 luglio sapremo quindi cosa diavolo sia realmente Bungie Aerospace. Nel frattempo gli utenti Apple possono scaricare Bungie Mobile dall'app store per restare sempre aggiornati sulle ultime notizie direttamente da Bungie, oltre ad altre feature legate all'online di Halo Reach.

Creators of Halo Establish Bungie Aerospace
Bungie Ignites Commitment to Independent Developers

Bellevue, WA (PR Web) June 30, 2011 - Today Bungie launched the first phase of a new venture, Bungie Aerospace, created to help independent developers create brilliant mobile and social games. Bungie Aerospace will give studios the creative freedom and the resources they need, like access to the Bungie.net platform and an audience with the incredible Bungie community, to launch their entertainment experiences into orbit.

"Bungie has always been passionate about making and playing great games, regardless of platform," said Pete Parsons, Bungie COO. "Bungie Aerospace will allow us to explore game creation in multiple formats with some amazingly talented teams. Now that we've returned to our roots as an independent studio, we are in a position to launch Bungie Aerospace to support, foster, and elevate like-minded, independent developers."

Bungie Aerospace's first official partnership is with Seattle-based developer Harebrained Schemes, helmed by Jordan Weisman, the creative mind behind Halo 2's "I Love Bees" Alternate Reality Game, FASA Interactive, Wizkids, the MechWarrior and Shadowrun universes, and dozens of other creations and companies. The studio's first mobile gaming title, "Crimson," is set to launch this summer on iOS and Android devices.

More details about Harebrained Schemes' first mobile title developed under the Bungie Aerospace banner will be available in the weeks to come.

Ecco l'annuncio di Bungie Aerospace.
Niente nuova IP come qualcuno ipotizzava, ma una piattaforma di supporto a terze parti indipendenti, intenzionate a sviluppare applicazioni mobile/social.

Wow.
