Does bungie have a stock symbol?
I checked a few websites and cant find one. I thought they were an independant company. Does Bungie work for activision or themselves?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Khirna Why I think Bungie will never go public. Being privately held among the employees keeps all the decisions in house. If you publicly trade, you end up having a board of directors voted in by the shareholders. This means that people with financial interests in mind could end up making decisions at Bungie's highest level, which would be bad for us, the fans. Why? Because those people do not understand how to make a game, or what it takes to get one out and would only do things that make them more money (like online passes).[/quote]Which is a similar situation (albeit less drastic) to what they're in now with this deal with Activision.

Isn't Bungie a LLC? If so, I don't think thy can.

Would you rather have Bungie answer to its shareholders or to its fans?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] burritosenior [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] kendiese They should allow public trading.. The stock would be very low but would allow the public and fans and become apart of dominating the world sounds dumb I know[/quote]Bungie is only just now starting their journey without anybody controlling them but themselves. I would consider it absolutely devastating to Bungie, myself, and the industry as a whole if that were to ever happen.[/quote]Exactly, Bungie should stay the way it is now for a while.

Would shares be traded under the name "Arete Seven"?

Bungie going public would probably not turn out well.
