In a funny prod in our forum, Nathan Bitner may have let slip who the new Bungie Webmaster is... Matt Soell? Read for yourself!
As pointed out by 3of9 on RHL, it appears bungie.org is up to no good again! Renovations perhaps, even suggested by the cryptic comments, but you can never be sure with that wily bunch. Better safe than sorry... start stockpiling food and weapons now.
In the last two days, Yeroen (aka Max Hoberman) of Bungie has posted a couple items on the status of Bungie.Net (the game server) and Bungie.Net. (the web server) First of all, some of the problems with the gaming servers have been corrected, but the Myth TFL gaming server is currently down for the count.
For those of you don't know, Doug Zartman was formerly Bungie's head spin-doctor and the Voice of Bob. After Bungie's acquisition by Microsoft, he took a position within the great Windowed Fortress' marketing department.
Tom Vansinden wrote in to tell us about Bungie's new Interface Designer, posted about at Bungie.Net:
The sharp eyes of CyberBob have spied a new edition of Letters to the Webmaster. Keep your fork; there's pie.
Even with the restoration of plans to produce a version of Halo for the Macintosh as well as for Windows PCs and Microsoft's forthcoming X-Box gaming console, it seems as if Bungie will no longer be exhibiting at MacWorld conferences.
Bungie did not exhibit officially at MWNY in 2000, although Alex Seropian did take advantage of the opportunity to reconfirm Halo for the Mac during Steve Jobs' keynote address, quieting some ofthe fears of many of Bungie's Macintosh-using fans. There was a FanFest in New York later that week, however.
