Welcome to the club!
Personally, I am eager to see the new fans. It will be a fresh change for once to say I'm a fan of a particular studio or franchise without being labeled as a MS.
I dont know much about Bungie when it comes to games it made, as you can see, But I know they have one hell of a game engine that I am looking forward to.
If you don't mind brushing the dust off a "classic", you can download the Marathon trilogy for FREE. The majority of regulars here joined during the Halo years and [i]may[/i] not have played much of their earlier works. Personally, I've poked around in Durandal a bit, but that's about it. To me it feels a bit like running around in DOOM again.
What you can expect are trademark Bungie elements. Blasting enemies who laugh in alien tongues, rampant AI, punching buttons (one never pushes buttons), the "carnage per minute" ratio, lasers, mystery, power suits, and classic sci-fi action.
