Lots of good directish answers to the big things of the week.
Also was that confirmation that the Fallen may in fact be reanimated in some manner?! High five to whoever called that recently.
Oh, also, love DeeJ in his Bungie Community Theater outfit up front! Haha!

"It’s heart-warming to see old, familiar friends once again dreaming and speculating about what might be in a brand new world. It’s great to see new voices join the party - people eager to see what all the fuss is about. We’re going to do our absolute best to live up to your lofty expectations."
Awesome quote! This makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :) And this one:
"We’ll show you how incredible it feels to see a Fallen Captain’s ethereal soul rip from its body after you’ve dusted his crew with your Gravesend Mk. 28 Heavy Machinegun, shattered his absorption shield with a perfectly-placed pulse grenade, and delivered a final, thundering shot with your beloved hand cannon. We’ll show you how satisfying it is to tactically carve through the suppressing fire of a fortified Cabal war base with your fireteam, gouts of oil, geysers of steam, and shimmering loot punctuating your victory as you go."
My heart rate went up just reading that, and re-reading it...and my excitement continues to build!

If I walked into the Bungie office today, could I get a high five?
Sure thing! But it would be delivered by Jerome, who often mistakes people’s faces for their upheld hand.
Hah! Good old jerome :P. This made me laugh, as did the mass blazer-ing at the end there.
That was almost a weekly update!

At the beginning there I almost thought they were back. Glad we'll be seeing them soon!
They are such teases

We’ll water all the little seeds we hope are tumbling around in your brain now that we’ve begun to pull back the curtain, ever so gently. We’ll tell you about Earth and the City and the Tower and the Guardians sworn to protect it. We’ll tell you about our new frontier and the enemies scouring the bones of our long-forgotten worlds. We’ll show you how incredible it feels to see a Fallen Captain’s ethereal soul rip from its body after you’ve dusted his crew with your Gravesend Mk. 28 Heavy Machinegun, shattered his absorption shield with a perfectly-placed pulse grenade, and delivered a final, thundering shot with your beloved hand cannon. We’ll show you how satisfying it is to tactically carve through the suppressing fire of a fortified Cabal war base with your fireteam, gouts of oil, geysers of steam, and shimmering loot punctuating your victory as you go.
If I didn't love them so much I'd hate them for teasing me so much.

It was awesome. That one paragraph had the same amount of juicy content as 5 or 6 weekly updates of old. They named a gun, a grenade, an enemy, a place and gave "descriptions" of most of them!
I'm still happy.
by Xenos , Shores of Time, Friday, February 22, 2013, 19:10 (4295 days ago) @ Ragashingo
Oh don't get me wrong, I'm still excited by the information, but man it just makes me salivate more.
Yep!

Is that... BOLL?!
by ZackDark , Not behind you. NO! Don't look., Friday, February 22, 2013, 18:41 (4295 days ago) @ UnrealCh13f
lolz
You circled 9 people there, ZackDark. *NM*
by JDQuackers , McMurray, PA, Friday, February 22, 2013, 19:02 (4295 days ago) @ ZackDark
Who taught you how to draw circles?! I hope they're embarrassed ;-)
In my defense...
by ZackDark , Not behind you. NO! Don't look., Friday, February 22, 2013, 19:10 (4295 days ago) @ JDQuackers
two of them look like BOLL and one like a chubby BOLL.
Also, shame on you for not knowing which one I meant.
Also, I'm going to tell Miss Rosie you said mean things about her!
They are all BOLL.

Genius!
Lolol, no, sorry.

Sadly I don't work for Bingle. I have an old classmate that supposedly does though, according to LinkedIn. Haven't found him in the picture yet, but then I haven't looked very closely. Haven't spoken to him for what... 8 years!
Lolol, no, sorry.

What's his last name?
