font used on Bungie.net and Halo games

I suppose this is the best place to put this, so what is the font that is used above in the banner where it says "A gathering place for the Bungie communtity." It is a really nice font, and I see it used in Halo 3/ODST and I'm just wondering whether is a proprietary font or a commercially available one. Thanks

[/quote]I would say just a modified variant of Arial. [/quote] hmm, the fact is it looks way too smooth. the superintendent uses it, have a look at close up here:[url]http://www.bungie.net/projects/odst/asset_popup_viewer.aspx?at=61&cc=29&item=6[/url]

  • In the games its a custom font that can only be bought.
