Okay, Bungie Community. You asked for the spotlight. Don't melt in its rays. Below are questions submitted by the developers who spend as much time wondering about you as you do about them.
[u]Suggested Guidelines[/u]:
Please post in this thread only once. Failure to honor this request will result in forfeiture of your privilege to participate (or worse). I would recommend only answering the questions that really speak to you. Don't force this. I'll be looking for humor or sage wisdom that could benefit us all. And, more than a sentence or two will be heavily edited or ignored completely. No monologing.
Have a ball! Oh, and QUOTE the questions you are answering.
The zombie apocalypse is upon us. Most of humanity has already fallen to the hordes of flesh-eaters. You have survived because of your ingenuity, cat-like reflexes, and dashing good looks. As you travel in search of food, you find a grizzled old man who offers to give you a powerful weapon. Now is your chance to make a difference in this battle against the undead. You can choose any one weapon, real or fictional. What do you choose and why?
What do you think is missing from video games right now?
Which do you think makes a better e-sport: DOTA, League of Legends, or Starcraft 2? Why?
Top Five MCs? (That stands for Master of Ceremonies, not Master Chief. Please answer in the form of five [b]YouTube links[/b].)
How and when did you first fall in love with Halo?
Which movie would you most like to play as a video game? (please submit your answer in the form of link to an [b]iconic image[/b] from that movie)
Do you think the game community could be doing more to cut down on harassment or unsporting behavior in general?
What is the most memorable positive experience you had with a stranger while gaming online?
What's the best game in your opinion - in terms of value/dollars ratio as opposed to raw quality - that came out this year?
If you could easily teach a thousand people one idea, what would it be?
Is there one game (other than Halo) that you can point to that really hooked you and turned you into a gamer? What was it and why?

Then I could just go back and prevent the apocalypse (or destroy the world in worse ways). [quote] What do you think is missing from video games right now? [/quote] Challenge and innovation. A lot of games are just playing it safe these days and they don't want to stump the player or force them to apply practical skills to play. This takes away a key strategical component that I feel gamers once had to master. I'm also still waiting for Nintendo to make a Pokemon game allowing me to dodge battle attacks in real time with a voice command. [quote] Which movie would you most like to play as a video game?

Those marines could make for some pretty funny NPCs, especially that one sergeant guy. I doubt that would sell well though. [quote]If you could easily teach a thousand people one idea, what would it be?[/quote] I'd make up some mainstream sounding acronym that would excuse foolish behavior and write a song about it. [quote] Is there one game (other than Halo) that you can point to that really hooked you and turned you into a gamer? What was it and why?[/quote] For me it would be Super Smash Bros Melee. There was nothing greater than destroying your friends in a 10 minute match and having them rage and throw controllers. I remember having a social life before playing this game, and when I picked up the controller it grew even larger. I went to more LAN parties than I could count and it was a great way to connect with my friends after a vacation. I even tried my hand at a few tournaments and our local library would hold weekly game nights that we also went to. I think my favorite part of gaming would be the social aspect to it.
