It's unfortunate that all the people who are pissed off about the lack of Multiplayer have to bitch to us about it too. All it's doing is wasting space on the forums and people get more and more pissed off. I am glad they don't want to buy the game because I don't want to deal with them in the future. Perhaps they are afraid of leaving the loop games are in. Action = shoot someone to get their boss, stratagy = build somthing to kill their boss, sims = build more things and keep them alive. This is why bungie is great. Not once have I ever seen them making something that isn't new to a genre, if their not creating a new one. Look at all there games:

GNOP!- Bungie's first game as well as the first pong game spelled backwards.

Opperation Dessert Storm- Their second title about tank battles. It was fun to play and included a good ammount of detail.

Minotaur- One of the first Multiplayer only titles I'm not sure how far up there but it was right in the beggining.

Pathways into Darkness- Holy crap! This was not only one of the first games to be a first person shooter, but the first one to have a real story line in it. if you don't think so go to pid.bungie.org and read some of the stuff there. You'll see.

Marathon Trilogy- Combined with PiD it had an increadibly deep story and was the first game to support different multiplayer game types (coop, king of the hill, ect.)

Weekend Warrior- Bungie's first 3D game and made along side the people at Pangea(I think that's how it's spelled). Also Bungie's strangest game if you ask me.

Myth I and II- The first true 3D action strategy game made. Although the only thing 3D was the terrain it was still the first, and it was an amazing title.

Oni- The first game to put hand to hand combat and gun-fighting in one with an anime game style. A hard task to complete as we have been witnessing and it will turn out great.

Halo- What do I need to say about Halo besides that is the only game so far to have about %90 of everything a person has ever wanted in a action game. Not only that it gives elements of and RPG in there as well.

So for those of you who keep saying, Bungie did everything wrong, look at there past and present and then think again, because not once have they ever sold a title that hasn't been great in some way.
