Reverse Mail Sack.

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? [Edited on 09.18.2012 9:40 AM PDT]

You can choose any one weapon, real or fictional. What do you choose and why?[/quote] The Hammer of Dawn or The Scarab Gun. I would be close to unstoppable. If I was gonna sacrifice myself; probably The Halo Rings or a Nuclear bomb. [quote]What do you think is missing from video games right now?[/quote] I think that the relation between the player and the protagonist is something that video games lack, I can't recall off the top of my head a game where I can relate to the character. [quote]How and when did you first fall in love with Halo?[/quote] I first fell in love with Halo back in 2005 when I went over to my cousin's house; he was playing Halo 2, and I played with him. I had so much fun playing split-screen; even though I was terrible at it. Every time I went over to his house I'd play it. At the time I thought that the Spartans were robots. But the first Halo game I bought was Halo 3. I looked at the cover and I was instantly reminded by that game with my cousin at his house. I had to buy it. Ever since I've loved the unique story and characters, as well as the environments. [quote]Which movie would you most like to play as a video game? (please submit your answer in the form of link to an iconic image from that movie)[/quote] [url=http://magickalgraphics.com/Graphics/TVandMovies/Blade/blade18.jpg]Blade.[/url] [quote]Do you think the game community could be doing more to cut down on harassment or unsporting behavior in general?[/quote] Most definitely; I have never played a game of Call of Duty where there wasn't a prepubescent 13 year old claiming that he "Done my mum last night". [quote]What is the most memorable positive experience you had with a stranger while gaming online?[/quote] When I met a guy on Halo 3 in Lone Wolves; he was searching for help with an achievement and I helped him. He helped me in return, and ever since we've become really good friends on Xbox LIVE. Probably one of the nicest guys I met on Xbox LIVE. Also, playing with the Bungie.net community on Halo 3 on Bungie day this year was a great experience. Everyone was so nice and it was a great laugh. [quote]What's the best game in your opinion - in terms of value/dollars ratio as opposed to raw quality - that came out this year?[/quote] Ooh, That's a tough one. Loads of great games came out this year. But the one that stands out to me is Darksiders II. The story is well-told and it runs along the course of the first game. You play as Death, one of the horseman of the apocalypse and you're trying to prove War's innocence. The puzzles are pretty neat, too. [quote]If you could easily teach a thousand people one idea, what would it be?[/quote] That 0.99 = 1. [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] Mario. There is something about that overweight Italian plumber that reaches my heart, and will always have a place there. The first game I ever played was a Mario one, and I own a lot of the games. In my opinion, Mario is an iconic symbol in gaming. Edit: Quoted the questions. [Edited on 09.19.2012 8:48 AM PDT]
