It was only a mere few days’s after the release of Halo 3 was put out, that Bungie announced it’s separation from Microsoft. However, even though the spilt has happened, Halo Bungie has announced that Halo 3 may not actually be the last in the franchise. It’s been announced that the developer’s from Bungie have been working with world wide director Peter Jackson who is most famous for his Lord Of The Rings trilogy have been working together to make a game called Halo: Chronicles.

During the early day’s, the developer’s mainly concentrated on games for Macintosh during its first nine years. The first game that Bungie ever released was a free game that went by the name of Gnop! Which if you take a look at the name is actually spells PONG backwards. Other popular games that the developer’s are known for, before the popular Halo series became what it is now; we’re the games Marathon, the Myth series and Oni.
The Halo Bungie studios are known around the gaming world as a dedicated workplace as well as an amazing group of people. If the developer’s aren’t helping out survivors of Hurricane Katrina by donating proceeds of t-shirts being sold to the Red Cross, or hearing about a gamer who sent in their Xbox 360 for repair and loosing all personalization and sending them an autographed Master Chief helmet and other swag, then they are putting out amazing killer app games for gamers all around the world to enjoy.
