Archangel Tyrael Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 A previously sealed court document obtained by the Los Angeles Times outlines the contract developer Bungie signed with Activision back in 2010 to create a new franchise. According to the contract, Bungie will develop four "sci-fantasy, action shooter games," code named "Destiny," that will be released every other year starting next fall. Bungie will also put out four downloadable expansion packs, code named "Comet," every other year beginning fall of 2014. Additionally, the first "Destiny" game will be released first on Xbox 360 and potentially Microsoft's new console. The other three games will then be released on consoles from Microsoft and Sony as well as PC. Also detailed in the contract is that Bungie is potentially working on another Marathon game, which the studio cannot devote no more than 5 percent of its staff to while working under Activision. The document was made public as part of the on-going lawsuit between Activision and former Infinity Ward heads Jason West and Vince Zampella. Both Bungie and Activision have been reached for comment. Head over to the L.A. Times story to read the entire 27-page contract. http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2012/05/21/details-on-bungie-39-s-new-project-39-destiny-39-revealed.aspx 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a live dinosaur Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Amazing, Bungie will never die out. Many companies have quit or made something new, but Bungie stands strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donut Posted May 22, 2012 Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Looking forward to this, not so pumped that Bungie is working with Activision but I am looking forward to the new game. Hopefully it will be a very good game since Bungie is starting fresh with new ideas. Rock on Bungie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

36-2071 Pragmatic Avarice Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Marathon needs to be restored in a way, maybe there won't be an actual sequel, but more of an entire refresh of the universe. Perhaps into one large game summing up Marathon's entire trilogy. I say compressed into one game because Infinity's ending put a daunting transcendence for the Security Officer.

Undead Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I agree with Aggregation. They should bring back Marathon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippie Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Cant wait to see Bungies new game. I hope its as fun as Halo. And as the maybe new Marathon game I hope its not as confusing. Both should be pretty cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
36-2071 Pragmatic Avarice Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 If they go the same direction as the original Marathon with minimalist arsenal (You have to admit, the fan made scenarios had more weapons than the official games after Marathon 1), it'd be what First Person Shooters need more of. A simple selection but all are equally good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
