[quote]Do you like Bungie? Their early work was a little too 'new-wave' for my taste, but when Halo 2 came out in ‘04, I think they really came into their own - both commercially and artistically. The whole game has a clear, crisp physics engine, and a new sheen of updated graphics capabilities that really gives the game play a big boost. They’ve been compared to Infinity Ward, but I think Bungie has a far more surreal, science-fiction sense of design. In '07, Bungie released this, Halo 3, their most accomplished game. I think their undisputed masterpiece is ‘Guardian,’ a map so catchy most people probably don't look at the competitive dynamic - but they should! Because it's not just about the pleasures of spawn camping, and the importance of controlling snipes, it's also a personal statement about the game designer itself! Hey Paul![/quote]
