Bungie....you better issue an apology/Statement!

Hey guys. Just to let you know that due to some small message in (or thought to be in) your new trailer that apparantly reads "Wheres Maddie?" small but growing numbers of halo fanboys are posting stuff on websites related to the disapperance of a kid in the UK named Madaline McCann. Now i dont know how well you know the UK press....but they can be, say...reactionary at best. Especially about Maddie. All it would take is a few more posts and you can be sure you'll end up in a few of the red tops....and i assure you it wont be favourable to the Bungie cause. They love a good anti-gaming story. You may want to issue a statement to people telling them to calm down before the press get hold of it. About 24 hours i reckon. Just thought i'd warn you :) P.s Ask Frankie if you want to know more about the British press...i'm sure he's got some horror stories..

  • [quote]Some of you brits need to grow thicker skin. It's pathetic.[/quote] I'm not overly bothered by the reference, whether intended or not. I'm simply amazed a marketing team would allow it to go ahead. Marketing is and always has been bungie's strongest point. [quote]What are the worms? There's nothing offensive, slanderous, or otherwise questionable here. [/quote] You can keep saying it all you like but it's questionable. We're up to 13 pages now, and there's quite a bit more on other forums. The worms for example, could include things like they're actually intending for the connection to be made for the purposes of publicity in europe (bungie have traditionally done poorly there), or they realised the connection and didn't see any problem with the use of the name in that particular context, with those specific words [i]("where are you maddy" was literally sobbed out by the mother of madeleine mccann on international tv as she cried her heart out)[/i] Either one, as i say, is either tremendously bad form or very poor work.
