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][b]Posted by:[/b] DominateChu This is probably the most ridiculous thing I have ever read. The fact that people are actually making a connection between this game and the sad disappearance of a girl that coincidentally happens to have the same name is incredible. For once, just once, use a little bit of logic. Sure, for those of you who live in the UK the fact that the names are the same might have gotten your attention, but use your head to realize that there is nothing in common between Bungie and the disappearance. The fact that people get offended so easily these days just amazes me. Suddenly, the use of a common name is off limits in a video game? Come on. I can understand your concern if Bungie had put "Maddie McCann, where are you?" That would be weird and inappropriate. But they didn't. So get over it.[/quote]OMG! that explains why they can't find her. Bungie has Maddie. They got their Flaming Ninja's to kidnap her, but she escaped and now they can use her nickname, in a game teaser, asking her to come back. The SuperIntendent can hypnotise her, if she sees a picture of him/it. Its such a conspiracy. Disregard the bull I posted...it's a joke...go & die...if you take this offensive. But seriously it's just a [b]Nickname[/b]. [Edited on 09.25.2008 12:24 PM PDT]
