We're gonna miss you, Joe! (Destiny)

Always loved what Joe brought to the table, and his voice alone always got me excited for previews and demos (not to mention the laughter his Grunt work gave).

I'm really happy that he contributed 4 years to Destiny and that we still have a lot of his work in that franchise to look forward to, but it will still feel little sad that him (and Marcus Lehto too) won't be with Bungie as it finally conquers the world.

Hope what he does next is spectacular. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for his work!

As always, Levi says it better than I can.

The only time I met Joseph was at Macworld 2000 where he was producing Halo video and hosting BungieTV. Since then, he has been integral in building the amazing and wonderful gameplay experiences I've grown up with. Bungie will certainly be a different place without his daily influence. Thank you for everything, Joe, and I'm very excited to see what you'll be doing next!
