[quote]Just because 343 was created by Microsoft doesn't mean they aren't also partners.[/quote] No, it's just an incredibly inaccurate description of their relationship. But the part where you said that 343 AREN'T Microsoft defeats your excuse. Y'know, you can just admit you were wrong, haha. The bottom line is that 343 messed up Halo 4, caused almost every Aussie I know to quit Halo because of the removal of local search games, the episodic mode was the more repetitive than Destiny ever was and laggy to the point of being unplayable. Then they try to release a bunch of games that Bungie had already made and got working a long time and they don't work either. After months of patches and apologies and promises of free stuff and it's still not fixed, AND THEY OWN THE SERVERS!!! Like I said. Bumbling. And you can't blame the servers cause many other games run on the Microsoft Azure servers just fine. You can knock Destiny all you want, I'll agree the game is a repetitive, story-barren, grind fest. But at least Destiny works.
