Bungie admits to MMO hoax Is it or isn't it? This is the multimillion-dollar question for Bungie Studios, who had all but confirmed that it was working on a MMO of sorts. Apparently, this was either a ruse, a goof or a massive misunderstanding, as a Bungie representative clarified David Aldridge's comments at GDC as being nothing more than a tongue-in-cheek joke. |

Kinda funny how Massively's had a ton of stuff on Rift, but all these are non-Rift updates ;P (probably more of a coincidence though, since RIft's mainly gotten the user content updates and official launch, as opposed to the head start).

Rift's 15 minutes of fame are already over.

That or WoWinsider was told to shut the hell up about Rift and stop promoting it.
Which is more probable.

Massively covers dozens of MMOs every week. RIFT got the highlight last week because it was RIFT's launch week. This week there were other major items. Specifically GDC.

I'm still deadset on playing a Trooper first, but I liked the BH update for TOR.

"Rift's 15 minutes of fame are already over."
LOL
You can take that to be with you and wakeup up safe, protected from the monster under the bed, and in the closet too.
Oh so scared of Rift... it might take my friends away... boo hoo.
