Here in the videogame industry, everyone loves the occasional (frequent?) dose of rumors and speculaton, especially when it’s related to big-name titles and developers.
The latest bit of gaming gossip comes from little-known website allaboutiphone.net, who "have it on very good authority that Bungie is handing out free iPhones to all its employees." Of course this means that the Halo developer is bringing the uber-popular franchise to Apple’s beefed-up cellular phone sometime soon.
Possibly.
The assumption is that Bungie wouldn’t give such generous gifts without some reason other than to say, "Good job. We appreciate your hard work." Already, a number of big gaming companies have jumped onboard the iPhone bandwagon, making it easy to envision a full-blown three-man race in the handheld arena. With no more ties to Microsoft, Bungie is completely free to develop for another computer-gone-gaming company’s hardware. What better franchise to do it with than Halo?
Marathon was on Mac…
