Remember that story last week about the guy who had his autographed Xbox 360 scrubbed clean? Well, we found out that Bungie had something up their sleeves for him, and while they aren't replacing his console (he already has a working one), they did hook him up with some pretty sweet gear.

Bungie steps up to help out gamer with wiped 360

Remember earlier this week when I told you about the gamer that had his autographed 360 wiped clean (or had his case swiped)? Well there still hasn't been any official word from Microsoft on the matter, they're still “investigating.” While Microsoft is looking into the matter, Bungie is taking action. "Something is already 'afoot' within Bungie to help our community member in need," Bungie community director Brian Jarrard told Next-Gen on Monday. "Our team and the community as a whole is rallying to help fix this unfortunate situation. It’s been awesome to see such an outpouring of sympathy and support from our community. We can't replace the exact item that was lost but, but we should come very close." Read The Full Story

Free Halo 3 from Bungie

Microsoft is being oh so generous this holiday season and decided to give away free copies of Halo 3! Now for the bad news… The offer is only available to those precious few people who have yet to get with the program and upgrade to an Xbox 360. Oh and you also need to be an Xbox live member prior to the purchase. Free is a bit of an overstatement. If you’re going to spend that much money you may as well throw in the extra $60 and buy the game yourself. That being said for a micro second after hearing this news I was sad that I upgraded two months ago and missed out on the free stuff. Then I remembered that my Xbox 360 and Halo 3 were a gift and all was well. Read The Full Story

Official: Bungie and Microsoft splitting, sort of

Remember that article I wrote the other day about the rumor of Bungie separating from Microsoft? Well its not a rumor anymore, in fact its quite official. I don’t know how much of a split it is, here is an analogy of the situation from my perspective though, it’d be like you telling your parent you were moving out, but you move out, into the room above the garage, technically its out, but your still very, very connected. Really all this has done is made it possible for Bungie to work on other games/platforms if they want to. Read The Full Story
