Site updated with new content and Halo 2 information.

Bungie, the development studio that brought gamers the award-winning Halo and is currently developing the highly anticipated Halo 2 for Xbox, today announced the relaunch of the popular Bungie.net site (http://www.bungie.net/). New content, new technology and a new layout will make it easier for fans to get their fill of Halo and Bungie information. Xbox Live gamers can link their gamertags to their Bungie.net accounts, which grants them instant access to their Xbox Live Friends Lists while browsing the new Bungie.net. More importantly, this link to Xbox Live is merely a taste of a much more integrated Halo 2, Xbox Live and Bungie.net experience; details of which will be revealed at a later date.

During launch week, Bungie will use the site to unveil two exclusive new Halo 2 screenshots along with more never-before-seen (or heard) cool stuff from the game. In addition, Bungie.net will sport a newly revamped "History of Bungie" feature, an interview with Bungie Studios co-founder and Halo 2 project lead Jason Jones, screenshots from Halo's earliest days, team profile pages and a whole lot more to keep fans busy for weeks to come. Also, fans can take a peek around Bungie's studios, courtesy of multiple webcams, while reading the latest posts in the updated forums from fellow gamers and Bungie's team.
