Please report to the mail room to drop a question into the Sack. What's on your mind? What would you like to know about the people at Bungie?
The goal is to sustain a light-hearted conversation between Bungie developers and the Bungie Community. The best questions are the ones that let us share a fun moment. Questions that dig into our current project will be passed over. We will talk about that later. Questions that require us to comment on industry controversies - thus sparking a nasty feud between us and other developers that we respect - will be strategically misplaced.
This is a chance for us to share a bit of ourselves with you while we toil away in this self-imposed dark phase. Let's keep the mood light. Shall we? We do so enjoy the weekly exchange.

So, it's at the end of the day. You're hungry. Exhausted. Sitting there in your hydraulic-enhanced desk chair swirling cantankerously around and around while hearing farts from distant pods. The clock hour hand is five minutes away from you just about to split an atom getting home. Then, Jason Jones, gives a direct order to write a 300 word essay. "Before you go, here are the questions. One! Put yourself in the shoes of our fans. What would you want them to know? What is a funny moment that you've never shared or kept hidden from the community while working here? Now, is not the time to be embarrassed. Two! Have you made any friends here? If so, share something interesting about that friendship." "Get to it, marines! And send your essays to that Deej guy wherever his where-a-bouts." He demanded.

The website is the darkest I've ever seen it, and is becoming repetitive and dare I say boring. What do you plan to do about this? [Edited on 04.30.2012 12:42 PM PDT]

Which Bungie employee has the longest full name?

We've been having a huge argument over this in Café since before time began, and it needs answering for the sake of humanity. The balance of good and evil is to be determined by the answer, so tell me: Which is better? Blueberry or chocolate muffins?

Why don't you guys still have the "Meet the Team" page easy to access? Every time I hear that an employee has quit, I've wanted to see if it's true. Thankfully Insane Assassin made a page linking it, but since his thread, I haven't been able to check :(

If you could have any superpower, what would it be?
-
If you could move Bungie HQ to anywhere on Earth (or beyond!) for a day, where would you go? Also, I bet loads of developers would love to say they helped create one of the Halo games - what games do you guys wish you had a helping hand in making?
-
What is the most popular snack?
-
If you can't tell us what game developers you disagree with, can you tell us which ones have inspired you the most? Who do you look at and say "I want to be as good as them" or "I wish I could do ____ like those guys" when you're working?

Why are we here?

Does working on video games "ruin" them for you? Kind on like how working on a movie might ruin the suspension of disbelief when you see them. Rather than seeing it as a video game, you'll see it as coding and textures.

If you don't like keeping secrets from us, and we don't like you keeping secrets from us, why not tell us what your new game is? Everyone wins!
