Bungie.net has been going berserk for quite some time now, with a timer counting down to something big. After rumors ran rampant (oh boy, there’s that word again) about the new Master Chief-less Halo game, the Halo movie and a whole lot of other crap, it looks like it’s definitely a remake of something from Bungie’s past.

Talking to a highly placed Xbox 360 insider earlier today afternoon, we’ve learned something about the new Bungie project, with our conversation going something like this:

Me: So, about the new Bungie project, do you know what it is?
Mr. X: Yes. (laughs)
Me: So, is it something which will have us jumping for joy?
Mr. X: Well, not really. Actually, it depends. Are you a hardcore Bungie fan?
Me: Yes! So its not Halo related.
Mr. X: No, absolutely not.
Me: Is it a new IP from Bungie?
Mr. X: No, it’s not a new IP. That much I can confirm.
Me: So, is it something like Myth or Marathon, from Bungie’s past?
Mr. X: (awkward silence)
Me: God, I hope its something like Myth or Marathon or Pathways into Darkness or something like that.
Mr. X: (laughs)

and the conversation ended there abruptly. With confirmation that the new project is indeed a revival and not something new, which combined with the “Pardon our Dust” message on the Bungie.net website (remember “Please Excuse our Dust”?), who’s eager for a reimagining of PiD? Or Myth? Or Marathon?
