How do these people get jobs?
Wow. There's a pretty astoundingly rude editorial over at Daily Game today - I can't call it news, because it reads more like a forum rant than anything else. I'm actually sort of surprised to see something like this on a big-name gaming site.
But you, in turn, must fully understand that online co-op was quite the only feature missing from Halo 2 that we wanted in Halo 3. Well, and an ending. Recorded videos? Optional. Shiny, HDR-lit barrels? Optional. New vehicles and weapons? Optional. Give us online co-op, Bungie. Prove to us that you're not so wrapped-up in your own perceived greatness that you actually listen to your consumers.
As one of those consumers, I've got to say that some of those 'optional' features are NOT optional for me - but the difference is, I understand that I speak for me, whereas the author of this piece believes he speaks for the Halo community. (There's nothing wrong with making your wishes known. DEMANDING features in an upcoming game - with an empty threat of brand abandonment behind the demand, and with snide comments about how Bungie's not actually doing anything except eating pizza in their studio - is just plain foolish.)
