Do people really think that Bungie will never make games for platforms other than 360? It's not like they are in best terms with platform holder anyway.
I agree we won't see that in next couple of years.
Taking away this recent situation with the announcement (its being blown WAY out of proportion imo), Bungie has been GREAT for MGS. But MGS has also been GREAT for Bungie. Seriously, can you name one other publisher that would've even attempted ad campaigns like those for Halo 2 and Halo 3? Bungie has REPEATEDLY stated that they have been a FANTASTIC partner to work with DURING development as well. The resources that MGS offer as a publisher are hard to match.
So the bigger question is why would they be in a hurry to leave MGS as a publishing partner? No, I see this relationship being as long lasting as Insomniac's has been with SCE. Its mutually beneficial in ways that those looking for a scandal choose not to acknowledge.
Bungie's going to get a dedicated even to show off their new games and IP's. I'm pretty sure that the HONEST disappointment they rightfully feel over what happened at E3 2008 will be all better soon enough.
