MS & Bungie Roundup
by Steve Gibson, Jun 20, 2000 4:15am PDTIt looks like the big Microsoft & Bungie announcement storm is getting wrapped up. I'm pretty bummed about the whole thing myself, but I can understand the business opportunity and reasoning behind the move. I dont have to agree with it or anything though. :) Here is a bunch more stuff for you guys: (Last full item for the whole MS/Bungie thing around here, honest!)
- DailyRadar interview with Jason Jones - MacCentral talks with some execs from TakeTwo about it. - An edited chat log from the Bungie chat of last night. - Gamers.com gets some community reaction from webmasters and a former employee. - IGN talks with Ed Fries of Microsoft and Alex Seopian of Bungie about the situation.
