Bungie Appoints Pete Parsons as New CEO

Harold Ryan has stepped down as CEO of Bungie today, and Pete Parsons has been appointed as the new CEO. Pete issued a short statement about the change:

I want to personally thank Harold for his friendship, passion, hard work, and dedication in helping make Bungie the great company it is today. As a team, we celebrated many victories and weathered many storms.

To the players of Destiny, I want you to know that my number one priority, and Bungie’s, is and always has been to deliver great games that we can all share together. I believe that Destiny is a one-of-a-kind experience. I also believe you have yet to see our studio’s best work. My new role here at the studio will be entirely focused on fulfilling that promise. 

Congratulations to Pete! No word if Harold will be staying with Bungie.

Big Entertainment

Pete Parsons spoke to GamesIndustry International - it's a great interview for showing how high Bungie is shooting with this IP.

(Our forum is a bit skeptical, all told - but maybe that's healthy. Make 'em earn that respect!)
