What is this Bungie.net countdown?
Too Much Coffee Man \| 9:35 PM on 09.24.2008	14 comments

So on the front page of bungie.net is a countdown in the lower right corner, under the letters ERR. It's currently (at the time of this posting) at 11 hours 30 odd minutes and counting down.

The center of the screen has a collection of warning messages which keep rotating.

>>PARDON OUR DUST<<
>>EMERGENCY LIGHTS ACTIVE<<
>>NO PUBLIC ACCESS<<
>>PROCEED WITH CAUTION<<
>>KEEP IT CLEAN<<
>>FINAL NOTICE: BILL PAST DUE<<
>>OBEY POSTED LIMITS<<
>>PLEASE REMAIN CALM<<
>>EXPECT DELAYS<<
>>SERVICES WILL RESUME<<
>>EMERGENCY LIGHTS ACTIVE<<
>>PROCEED WITH CAUTION<<
>>NO PUBLIC ACCESS<<

Announcement coming or just gibberish?

Doing this again are they? Press conference announcing their new game. Easy. The same splash popped up before E3.

DO WANT ONI 2.

It's a countdown... for some more viral shit. Either that or it's a countdown... for another countdown.

It's also set to end at 7:07 a.m. pacific time. Curious to see what it is.

Introducing Halo: The Collectible Card Game.

Please be Halo: Fall of Reach. That would be the best Halo game ever, only if they spent more time on the single player than the multiplayer. I really want Bungie to make a single player focused Halo game, because I think the Halo universe and story is really cool, but they focus on the multiplayer too much.

I hope it's the final countdown

oni 2 oni 2 oni 2 oni 2 oni 2 oni 2 oni 2 oni 2 oni 2 oni 2 oni 2 oni 2...

Please let it be Oni 2. Or at least something not Halo related.

Let's all hope Trailerparkjesus is right.
